Talking Heads - Slippery People lyrics

Whatabout the time?

You were rollin' over

Fall on your face

You must be having fun

Walk lightly!

Think of a time.

You'd best believe

This think is real

Put away that gun

This part is simple

Try to recognize

What is in you mind

God help us!

Help us loose our minds

These slippery people

Help us understand

What's the matter with him? he's alright!

I see his face the lord won't mind

Don't play no games he's alright

Love from the bottom to the top

Turn like a wheel he's alright

See for yourself the lord won't mind

We're gonna move right now

Turn like a wheel inside a wheel

I remember when

Sittin' in the tub

Pulled out the plug

The water was runnin' out

Cool down

Stop acting crazy

They're gonna leave

And we'll be on our own

Seven times five

They were living creatures

Watch 'em come to life

Right before your eyes

Backsliding!

How do you do?

These slippery people

Gonna see you through
