Testo Slippery People - David Byrne
Testo della canzone Slippery People (David Byrne), tratta dall'album American Utopia on Broadway (Original Cast Recording)
What about 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 thing is real
Now, put away that gun, this part is simple
Try to recognize what is in your mind
God help us, help us lose our minds
These slippery people help us understand
What's the matter with him? (He's alright)
How do you know? (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 actin' crazy
They're gonna leave and we'll be on our own
Now, seven times five, they were living creatures
Watch 'em come to life right before your eyes
Backsliding, how do you do?
These slippery people are gonna see you through
What's the matter with him? (He's alright)
How do you know? (The Lord won't mind)
No, no, 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
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
Pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe-pe
What's the matter with him? (He's alright)
How do you know? (The Lord won't mind)
No, no, no games (He's alright)
And we're going 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
What's the matter with him? (He's alright)
How do you know? (The Lord won't mind)
No, no, 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
It's alright
The Lord won't mind
It's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
It's alright
The Lord won't mind
Right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel
