Testo Strange Ritual - David Byrne
Testo della canzone Strange Ritual (David Byrne), tratta dall'album David Byrne
A man sits in a field, contemplating his crops
In his mind, he travels all over the world
I see hairstyles, strange rituals
Scenes of beauty, scenes that disgust me
I see, I see me
I felt awe, felt disgust
I felt bliss, I felt lust
It's not unusual
Saw people in a remote village
Proudly wearing their, digital watches
Saw a young Indonesian girl
Possessed by the spirit of Mutant Ninja Turtles
Saw palatial estates, with crumbling decorations
And human furniture
I saw hairstyles, meanwhile
There's a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual, it's wearing me down
Saw a skyscraper made out of abandoned car parts
Saw a legislature of women courted by corporate lobbyists
Saw body parts made out of precious gems and rare metals
Saw a man on a barstool, who hadn't moved in 32 hours
He's lost in love
He's lost in love
All hope is gone
A French corporation that doesn't make anything
An ambulance driver, wakes up in a Dairy Queen
A town in which even the people who live there
Can't remember its name
Yeah, I see
Yeah, I see, I see what you mean
Yeah, I saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
There's a strange ritual
He's got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
Mmm, got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
"Excuse me, sir, excuse me, sir
You can't stand there
You can't stand there"
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
Excuse me, sir (excuse me, sir)
You can't stand there (you can't stand there)
You can't stand there (you can't stand there)
I saw things
Things out in the fields
I saw things
Things out in the fields
And I, I look at myself
What do I know?
(I saw things come into my room)
I saw things come into my room
It's not unusual
I saw hairstyles
Meanwhile
There's a strange ritual
Got a strange ritual
He keeps to himself
Yeah, we got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
He's lost in love, he's lost in love
All hope is gone, all hope is gone
All hands on deck, all hands on deck
He's lost in love, he's lost in love
We're lost in love, we're lost in love
All hope is gone, all hope is gone
We've got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
We've got a strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep, keep, go
Strange ritual
We keep to ourselves
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
We're lost in love
