Talking Heads - Life During Wartime Lyrics |
| Submitted by: AUTO-ADD |
| Current Rating: None | Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
packed up and ready to go
Heard
of some gravesites, out by the highway
a place where nobody knows
The
sound of gunfire, off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in
a brownstone, lived in the ghetto
I've lived all over this town
This
ain't no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling around
No time
for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
Transmit the
message, to the receiver
hope for an answer some day
I got three
passports, couple of visas
don't even know my real name
High on a
hillside, trucks are loading
everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the
daytime, I work in the nightime
I might not ever get home
This ain't
no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling around
This ain't no
mudd club, or C. B. G. B.
I ain't got time for that now
Heard about
Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta
know not to stand by the window
somebody might see you up there
I got some
groceries, some peanut butter
to last a couple of days
But I ain't got no
speakers
ain't got no headphones
ain't got no records to play
Why
stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this
time?
Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard
I can't write nothing at
all
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling
around
I'd love you hold you, I'd like to kiss you
I ain't got no time for
that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
we blended in
with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines
I know that
ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
or in a
suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle so many times now
don't know what I
look like!
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
we make a pretty good
team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
you ought to get you some
sleep
Get you instructions, follow directions
then you should change your
address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day
whatever you think is
best
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?
They won't help me
survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
the burning keeps me
alive
Try to stay healthy, physical fitness
don't want to catch no
disease
Try to be careful, don't take no chances
you better watch what you
say
