Talking Heads - Sax And Violins lyrics

Falling falling

Gonna drop like a stone

I’m falling through the atmosphere

On a warm afternoon

If lovers discover

That everyone dies

So don’t tell me, please hole me

It’s a dangerous life

Daddy dear

Let’s get outta here

I’m scared

10 o’clock

Nighttime in New York

It’s weird

If you’re looking for trouble

That’s what you will find

Mom & pop

They will fuck you up

For sure

Love so deep

Kills you in your sleep

It’s true

Love keeps us together

And love keeps us alive

Refrein:

And we - are criminals that never

broke no laws

And all - we needed was a net

to break our fall

They’re searching for diamonds

They’re grabbin’ at straws

Sex ‘n’ sin

Sax ‘n’ violins

It’s hell

Wooden heads

Furniture with legs

For sale -

Love keeps us together

And love will drive us insane

Going home

Back where I belong

To stay -

Rays of light

They will turn the light

TO day -

Birds travel together

Birds follow the sun

And I - am watching as the birds go flying home
