- David Byrne Strange Ritual 歌詞
- David Byrne
- A man sits in a field - contemplating his crops
In his mind he travels all over the world
I see hairstyles, strange rituals
Scenes of beauty, scenes that disgust me
I see, i see me
I felt awe, felt disgust
I felt bliss, i felt lust
Its - not unusual
Saw people in a remote village
Proudly wearing their - digital watches
Saw a young indonesian girl
Possessed by the spirit of mutant ninja turtles
Saw palatial estates, with crumbling decorations
And human furniture
I saw hairstyles, meanwhile
Theres a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual, its wearing me down
Saw a skyscraper made out of abandoned car parts
Saw a legislature of women
Courted by corporate lobbyists
Saw body parts made out of precious gems
And rare metals, saw a man on a barstool
Who hadnt moved - in 32 hours
Hes lost in love
Hes lost in love
All hope is gone
A french corporation that doesnt make anything
An ambulance driver - wakes up in a dairy queen
A town in which even the people who live there
Cant remember its name
Yeah, i see
Yeah, i see - i see what you mean
Yeah, i saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
Theres a strange ritual
Hes got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
Mmm - got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
excuse me, sir, excuse me, sir
You cant stand there
You cant stand there
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
You cant stand there (you cant stand there)
You cant stand there (you cant stand there)
I saw things
Things out in the fields
I saw things
Things out in the fields
And i look at myself
What do i know?
(i saw things come into my room)
I saw things come into my room
Its not unusual
I saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
Theres a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
Yeah, we got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Hes lost in love
Hes lost in love
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
All hands on deck
All hands on deck
Hes lost in love
Hes lost in love
Were lost in love
Were lost in love
All hope is gone
All hope is gone
Weve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Weve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Keep, keep, keep ...
Weve got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Were lost in love
Were lost in love
Were lost in love
Were lost in love ...
