- David Byrne What a Day That Was 歌詞
- David Byrne
- Well, im dressed up so nice
An im doin my best
Yes im startin over..
Startin over in another place
Lemme tell you a story
Big chief with a golden crown
Hes got rings on his finger
And then he walks up, up to the throne
Hes makin shapes with his hands
An dont choo dare sit down
Now dont choo dare jump back
And dont choo dare stick out!
And on the first day, we had everything we could hold
Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do
Ooh what a day that was.
There are 50,000 beggars
Roaming in the streets
They have lost all their possessions
They have nothing left to eat
Down come a bolt of lightning
Now an electrical storm
Starts a chain reaction
Go pull a fire alarm
Im dreaming of a city
It was my own invention
And i put the wheels in motion
A time for big decisions
And on the first day, we had everything we could hold
Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do
Ooh what a day that was.
Oh a day that was
Ooh thats the way it goes
Theres a million ways- to get things done
Threes a million ways- to make things work out.
Well im going right trough
And the light came down
Well theyre roundin em up
From all over town
Theyre movin forward and back
Theyre movin backwards and front
And theyre enjoying themselves
Movingin evry direction
So if you feel like youre in a whirlpool
You feel like going home
And if you feel like talking to someone
Who know the difference between right and wrong
And on the first day, we had everything we could hold
Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do
Ooh what a day that was.
Were go(in) boom boom boom thats the way we live
And in a great big room and thats the way we live.
