david byrne - a long time ago
And in the land where I grew up
Into the bosom of technology
I kept my feelings to myself
Until the perfect moment comes
Then into your bloodstream I will go
Until I turn into a part of you
Flooding the garden of delights
That was a long long time ago
That was a long long time ago
It's not the ending of the world
It's only the closing of a discotheque
I used to go 3 times a week
That was a long long time ago
Yeah, that was a long long time ago
And that roaring that you hear
Is only the blood that circles constantly
No, it is not applause, my dear
No, that was a long long time ago
That was a long long time ago
In between stations I can hear
A million possibilities
It's only the singing of the stars
That burned out a long long time ago
They burned out a long long time ago
david byrne - a million miles away
I ain't gonna work here no more
I ain't gonna work here no more
Honey, come & dance with me
Cause I ain't gonna work here no more
The stars gonna fall from the sky
The stars gonna fall from the sky
Diamonds, jewels & rubies too
And the stars gonna fall from the sky
Oh Oh
A million miles away from here
And I ain't gonna work here no more
You can't tell a man by his clothes
You can't tell a man by his clothes
A toad is a prince in someone else's eyes
And you can't tell a man by his clothes
I ain't gon' be treated this way
I ain't gon' be treated this way
This time I think they've gone too far
And I ain't gon' be treated this way
Oh Oh
A million miles away from here
And I ain't gon' be treated this way
Oh ? Oh
A million miles away from there
And we ain't gonna work here no more
Some sunny day
I been waitin' so long
Gonna walk right outa here
And I ain't gonna work here no more
We must have been out of our minds
We must have been out of our minds
You don't have to cry no more
We must have been out of our minds
Oh ? Oh
A million miles away from here
And we must have been out of our minds
Oh ? Oh
A million miles away from here
And I ain't gonna work here no more
A million miles away from here
And I don't have to cry anymore
david byrne - a perfect hand
They occupied our country
We were almost overrun
I knew if I did not react
Theyâ??d kill us, evâ??ryone
I promised to my mother
She meant so much to me
That for evâ??ry single tear she shed
Thereâ??d be a victory
Whoâ??s holding aces?
And whoâ??s gonna fold and
Whoâ??s got a secret?
And whoâ??s feeling bold?
Itâ??s a winning combination
If a lady understandsâ?¦that the
King and the Queen of Hearts
Could be a perfect hand
So know what you are holding
But be prepared to bluff
There are many ways to win a game
And skill is not enough
In the Senate or in business
But most of all in love
You ladies all know how things work
You know how to get things done
And if you open the door for a lady
You open a door for yourself
And a strangerâ??s only someone
Who you have yet to help
Whoâ??s holding aces?
And whoâ??s gonna fold and
Whoâ??s got a secret?
And whoâ??s feeling bold?
Itâ??s a winning combination
If a lady understandsâ?¦that the
King and the Queen of Hearts
Could be a perfect hand

david byrne - a self made man
We're living in a dump
Trying to figure out what sex we are
Exchanging chromosomes
Trying to bargain for a better future
Well I'll trade you my potential mental
illness for your bad teeth
How 'bout trading your sexy body for a
full head of hair
Well we can't predict the future
But we're trying to do the best that we can
My cards are on the table
I'm gambling ev'rything that I am
And some of us are hoping
To end up with a perfect life
I'll trade you ev'rything that I got
For the chance to be someone else
And what you see is what you get
And what you get is what you choose
And what I am
What you see
Is exactly what I chose to be
And now we got a black market
A black market in designer genes
The most beautiful, most intelligent
Criminals you've ever seen
And now you're payin' top dollar
For what you used to get for free
They'll stun you with their looks
And charm you with effortless ease
They've taken ev'rything from you
The way that you walk
The way that you smile
The sound of your voice
Don't even know
Who you are
Who are you now?
Who are you now?
I'm a self made man, I'm a self made man
I'm a self made man (I've got nothing left to give)
I'm a self made man (I've got nothing left to lose)
On down the hallway
The freaks are waiting for you
Somebody calls me
The freaks are waitin' for you
The clown will laugh in your face
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
The clown will laugh in your face
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
The clown will laugh in your face
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho
david byrne - a soft seduction
The words of love
Are not enough
Though sweet as wine
As thick as blood
Passionless moments
And we are homeless
Out on the street
But life is cool
And things aren't bad
Got what he wants
Lost what he had
He soon adjusted
And got accustomed
To these new ways
Blame God, how can you lose?
Singing such sweet Rhythm and Blues
Strange days, she said to me
Being in love ? don't mean you're free
But night reveals
What daytime hides
Who lingers on
Who sleeps outside
A soft seduction
A strong attraction
Somewhere downtown
A junkie's song
A dancer's knees
The laws of chance
Strange as it seems
Take us exactly
Where we most likely
Need to be
david byrne - a walk in the dark
I'm takin' all your little toys away
You don't have any say so in your future
The pretty colors and the shiny lights
Do we just chase whatever we desire?
Oh silent night
Oh holy night
Sometimes you see me
Sometimes you don't
You'll get to know me better
(After a walk in the dark)
The monster in the mirror
(We'll take a walk in the dark)
Woah ? take a walk in the dark
Woah ? take a walk in the dark
I'm not afraid to close my eyes at night
I'm not aftraid of what my dreams will show me
I saw a fish that had a human head
I saw some things that I would like to show you:
The broken glass
This car's on fire
Open the cages
And set them free
Mine eyes have seen the glory
(I took a walk in the dark)
It ain't no bedtime story
(We'll take a walk in the dark)
Woah ? take a walk in the dark
Woah ? take a walk in the dark
Oooh
Who will help ya' now?
Surrender,
My love
Burn baby burn
Let it all come down
Jesus, Mary and the Holy Ghost
Took one look and said, "Hey, we're lost!"
"How the hell do we get outa here?"
They shit their pants, they got so scared
No matter who you are
(Ya need a walk in the dark)
The sweetest thing I ever saw
(I took a walk in the dark)
(Woah...I took a walk in the dark)
david byrne - america is waiting
America is waiting for a message of some sort or another.
Takin' it again. Again! Again! Takin' it again.
Well now... no, no... now, we ought to be mad at the government not mad at the people.
Takin' it again. Again! Again! Takin' it again.
I mean, yeah, well... wha-what're ya gonna do?
America is waiting for a message of some sort or another.
No will whatsoever. No will whatsoever! Absolutely no honor.
No will whatsoever. No will whatsoever! Absolutely no integrity.
No will whatsoever. No will whatsoever! I haven't seen any any any citizen over there stand up and say "Hey, just a second."
No will whatsoever. No will whatsoever! I mean, yeah, so... wha-what're ya gonna do?
America is waiting for a message of some sort or another.
david byrne - american troglodyte
I could be a dancer, maybe
I could be a judge
Used to sing that karaoke
But I, I donâ??t do it much
Democracy in action
There is nothinâ?? up my sleeve
A watermelon postcard I am
Plantinâ?? all my seeds
Americans are wearinâ?? those sexy jeans
Americans are usinâ?? technology
Americans are surfinâ?? that Internet
Americans are listeninâ?? to 50 Cent
Americans are buyinâ?? that modern art
Americans are drivinâ?? gigantic cars
Americans are doinâ?? that exercise
Americans are livinâ?? like troglodytes
Evâ??rybody knows me
They are drinkinâ?? to my health
I terrorized my famâ??ly and I
Terrorized myself
Evangelized my bedroomâ??you can
Ride away with me
All the girls together in a
Mighty symphony
Americans are playinâ?? that basketball
Americans are doinâ?? that rock and roll
Americans are goinâ?? to outer space
Americans are buyinâ?? that real estate
Americans are livinâ?? the simple life
Americans are dancinâ?? on Friday nights
Americans are goinâ?? to Broadway shows
Americans believe in the Holy Ghost
Americans are wearinâ?? that lingerie
Americans are throwinâ?? that shit away
Americans are watchinâ?? reality
Americans are goinâ?? from A to Z
Americans are dancinâ?? in discothèques
Americans are payinâ?? their income tax
Americans are workinâ?? from 9 to 5
Americans are livinâ?? like troglodytes

david byrne - amnesia
Peace on Earth
Soon we will be
Where nothing worries us
Lazy days
Cool is the breeze
Across the universe
Armies of soldiers are sleeping tonight
And the moonlight is kissing their eyes
When you awake
You will be free
I'll be your lullaby
Alcohol
No need to fear
Rest in these fuzzy arms
Ease on down
Amnesia
Baby's on Valium
Keep us from danger and safe from all harm
From the wind, and the rain, and the fire
When you awake
You will be free
And I'll be you're lullaby
When you awake
You will be free
And I'll be your lullaby.
david byrne - angels
There are no angels left in America anymore
They left after the second World War heading west
Stopping briefly in Japan during the '60s
In Tienanman Square, during the last decade
They kept heading west to who knows where
What're they after?
What're they looking for?
A Messiah who never comes?
A virgin birth?
A perfect drunk?
A sign,
Any kind of sign
Anything that looks slightly out of the ordinary
Flying over fields & factories
Momma's goin' off her head
Daddy's bringin' home the bacon
Open up the pearly gates
Fruit of salty lubrication
Tangled up in arms & legs
I can barely touch the bottom
Now I'm workin' up a sweat!
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I can barely touch my own self
How could I touch someone else?
I'm just an advertisement
For a version of myself
Like molecules in constant motion
Like a million nervous tics
I am quivering with anticipation
Like the sunlight on their wings
I'm ready now
(Don't look back)
I'm ready now
(I'm ready for this)
I'm ready now
The sensuous world ? the smell of the sea
The sweat off their wings ? the fruit from
the trees
The angel inside ? will meet me tonight
On wings of desire ? I come back alive
I'm ready
I'm ready
(I put the dogs outside)
I'm ready
I'm ready
(To take that ride)
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
(To take that wine)
I'm ready now
But where are you?
david byrne - astronaut
The Western lands
Day turns to Night
Immaterial play of light
It's very nice out here
Poked my hand in a hornet's nest
They flew out around my face
I guess it's just self defense
The camera pans
The focus shifts
The world is a hornet's nest
I learned my lesson well
I surf the net
And watch TV
There's peace in the Middle East
Feel like I'm an astronaut
Now I am an astronaut
david byrne - au fond du temple saint
Au fond du temple saint
Paré de fleurs et d'or,
Une femme apparaît!
Je crois la voir encore!
Une femme apparaît!
Je crois la voir encore!
La foule prosternée
La regarde, etonnée,
Et murmure tous bas:
Voyez, c'est la déesse!
Qui dans l'ombre se dresse
Et vers nous tend les bras!
Son voile se soulève!
Ô vision! ô rêve!
La foule est à genoux!
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
plus charmante et plus belle!
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
qui descend parmi nous!
Son voile se soulève et la foule est à genoux!
Mais à travers la foule
Elle s'ouvre un passage!
Son long voile déjà
Nous cache son visage!
Mon regard, hélas!
La cherche en vain!
Elle fuit!
Elle fuit!
Oui, c'est elle! C'est la déesse!
En ce jour qui vient nous unir,
Et fidèle à ma promesse,
Comme un frère je veux te chérir!
C'est elle, c'est la déesse
Qui vient en ce jour nous unir!
Oui, partageons le même sort,
Soyons unis jusqu'à la mort!
david byrne - back in the box
The sun shines on the living
The sun shines on the dead
The sun shines on you and me
Wherever we lay our heads
The sun shines on the evil
The sun shines on the good
It doesn't favour righteousness
Although you wish it would
Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny
Are you still awake?
Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny
I'm terribly scared
And now I need an oasis
A place to hide from the day
I'd like a little dark tiny room
Where the music plays
Maybe you just lost somebody
Maybe your whole world has changed
The sun don't really care about that
It shines on anyway
Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny
Are you still awake?
Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny
I'm terribly scared
I'm going back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box again
Back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box again
And now love's terrifying
But I cannot hide what I want
You cannot hear me or see me now
Because I've gone back in the box
If I don't make no decisions
Then I won't make no mistakes
But through all those tiny holes
Well the light's still getting in
I'm going back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box again
I'm going back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box again ...
david byrne - big blue plymouth
There is nothing that is stronger than the feeling that you get
When your eyes are wide open
There is nothing like the feeling, you can never forget
When your eyes are wide open
Daytime was a feeling but it's not over yet
Are my eyes still open?
We come a long long distance and we're never goin' back
Got my eyes wide open
I got both doors open
I got both doors open
I got the back door open
I got the screen door open.
In another time
In another place
There's a train running through
Right through the middle of the house
Have I been dreaming, or have I been sick?
Are my eyes wide open?
Do I do it like that, or do I do it like this?
Are my eyes wide open?
Wearing' out the carpet doin' tricks with her hands
She's got her eyes wide open?
Think about this, "Well I already have."
I got both doors open
I got both doors open
I got the back door open
I got the screen door open.
Oh I don't understand
Oh it's not just a sound
Oh I don't understand
It doesn't matter at all
See the little girl with the eyes rolled back in her head
She got a complication but she knows it'll work out fine
Naked as a baby, talking 'bout the feeling she gets
In another time, in another place
I got both doors open
I got both doors open
I got the back door open
I got the screen door open.
Oh I don't understand
Oh it's not just a sound
Oh I don't understand
It doesn't matter at all
david byrne - big business
Think you've had enough-
Stop talking, help us get ready
Think you've had enough-
Big business, after the shakeup
Think you've had enough-
Stop talking, help us get ready
And you think you've had enough
Big business, after the shakeup
Get ready get ready
Stop talking, help us get ready
Stop
