David Byrne & St. Vincent - I Should Watch TV Lyrics
I used to think that I should watch TVI used to think that it was good for meWanted to know what folks were thinkingTo understand the land I live inAnd I would lose myselfAnd it would set me freeThis is the place where common people goA global franchise, one department storeYes, there were many awkward momentsI had to do some self-atonementWell, if I opened upWell, it would set me freeI know, I likeBehold and love this giantBig soul, big lipsThat's me and I am thisEverybody is a touched up hairdoEverybody's in the passing laneHad a reason that she touched all channelsThe weird things that live in thereI took a walk down to the park todayI wrote a song called, 'Just Like You and Me'I heard the jokes from the sports reporterThe rival teams when they faced each otherThe more I lost myself, the more it set me freeHow am I not your brother?How are you not like me?Everybody's in the hotel lobbyI'm living in here, yes, I amI feel it moving in my arms and fingersTouch me and feel happyIt's good to lose and it's good to win sometimesIt's good to die and it's good be aliveMaybe someday we can stand togetherNot afraid of what our eyes might seeMaybe someday understand them betterThe weird things inside of me
