I Should Watch TV(Live) - David Byrne

作词：Annie Clark/David Byrne

作曲：David Byrne

I used to think that I should watch TV

I used to think that it was good for me

Wanted to know what folks were thinking

to understand the land I live in

And I would lose myself

and it would set me free

This is the place where common people go

A global franchise one department store

Yes there were many awkward moments

I had to do some self-atonement

Well if I opened up well it would set me free

I know I like

Behold and love this giant

Big soul big lips

That's me and I am this now

Everybody gets a touched up hairdo

Everybody's in the passing lane

Had a reason that she touched all channels

The weird things that live in there

I took a walk down to the park today

I wrote a song called 'Just Like You and Me'

I heard the jokes from the sports reporter

the rival teams when they faced each other

The more I lost myself the more it set me free

How am I not your brother

How are you not like me

Everybody's in the hotel lobby

I'm living in here yes I am

I feel it moving in my arms and fingers

Touch me and feel my pain

Alright

It's good to lose and

it's good to win sometimes

It's good to die and it's good be alive

Maybe someday we can stand together

not afraid of what our eyes might see

Maybe someday understand them better

the weird things inside of me
