Sell Me A Coat (Bowie): two versions exist: the version which appeared on the debut album and a remix, containing vocal overdubs from Hermione Farthingale and John Hutchinson, appearing on the Love You Tuesday soundtrack LP. This remix was not released on CD until the 1997 The Deram Anthology 1966-1968 CD. The film features a 'video clip' from the song. See Early Works section.

[size=0px]La la la la la la, la la la la la la la
A winter's day, a bitter snowflake on my face
My summer girl takes little backward steps away
Jack Frost took her hand and left me, Jack Frost ain't so cool
CHORUS
  Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
  Sell me a coat that's red or gold
  Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
  Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold
And when she smiles, the ice forgets to melt away
Not like before, her smile was warming yesterday
See the trees like silver candy, feel my icy hand
CHORUS
See my eyes, my window pane
See my tears like gentle rain
That's the memory of a summer day
CHORUS (twice)
La la la la la la (repeat)[/size]
