David Byrne - The Moment Of Conception Lyrics
At the moment of conceptionI could see someone approachingWill you be my disco dancer?I could use a little coachingWill you be my secret lover?Mother, Father, Sister, Brother tooI was born without a conscienceFull of freedom, full of nonsenseFrom the mountains to the beachesEat the apples, steal the peachesWill you be this wild child's lady?Will you carry me to safety?Lock me up and take me homeI don't wanna be freeGoin' crazy - on my ownIt's not where I wanna beI behave without compassionI see things I want to smash themWhen I put our love in danger and treat you like a total strangerI don't really want to hurt youI would stop it if I could doBlame my school and blame my parentsAnd the genes that I inheritBlame it on my older sister for showing me her dirty picturesBlame the TV and the moviesBlame the lawyers and the juriesLock me up and take me homeI don't wanna be freeGoin' crazy - on my ownIt's not where I wanna beAt the moment of conceptionAt the moment of conception
