Shine shine shine (x6)
Bleeds like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Easy come, come, gotta back
In the valley of the dead man walks
How they drank from the jazz
Astral, Kestrel,
Fed into the featherfall
Fed him on a pencil carving
You will never get
Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Seek for a leather journey
Never stopped to think about
Hollywood King Kong
Domino on the side
Street light, looking right
Looking to the parlous parlors
Party on the dead
Put a net through his headache
Shine shine shine (x3)
Blee-eed, bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Living on a movie
All the Shirley/Charley films on film
Come together, party
Footnote on the footstone
Shine shine shine
Bleeds like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine
CHORUS (x6)
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Bleeds like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Easy come, come, gotta back
In the valley of the dead man walks
How they drank from the jazz
Astral, Kestrel,
Fed into the featherfall
Fed him on a pencil carving
You will never get
Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Seek for a leather journey
Never stopped to think about
Hollywood King Kong
Domino on the side
Street light, looking right
Looking to the parlous parlors
Party on the dead
Put a net through his headache
Shine shine shine (x3)
Blee-eed, bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Living on a movie
All the Shirley/Charley films on film
Come together, party
Footnote on the footstone
Shine shine shine
Bleeds like a craze, Dad
These are the craze
Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine
CHORUS (x6)
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the craze

"The cut-up style that is obviously used on such tracks as Bleed Like A Craze, Dad (yes, it is a play on Krays) and Dead Against it springs from the Brion Gysin/William Burroughs school of Fucking with the Fabric of Time." -Bowie

Sounds to me like a commentary on the Hollywood party scene
Haha, I though the title could be a pun at Dylan's It's All Right, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding).
Funny, the Shine, shine,shine lyrics and the Craze, along with the repeating background guitar riff reminiscent of the opening guitar notes on Shine On You Crazy Diamond, reminds me somehow of said Pink Floyd song.
