You & Eye - David Byrne

You and I — may kill ourselves

You and I — go straight to hell

Where they have barbeque and beer

Better than they do up here

And you know all the words to the songs

Yeah — we smoke cigarettes

We dance with the dead

They’re soft to the touch

We drink way too much

And darling, I think you’ll like it here

You might like it here

You and I — we ain’t no saints

You and I — we can see our fates

We’ll be the faces in the clouds

We’ll be a gospel singer’s shout

We’ll be the lights from an airplane at night

Hey yeah — I can’t stay in my skin

I bin in here too long

But I know where to find, a really good time

And darlin' I think you’ll like it here

You might like it here

I’m gonna fall in love

With ev’ryone I meet

And ev’ryone I see

And ev’rything I touch

And ev’rything I feel

Isn’t that the way (isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

I’m the look upon your face

The water on your lawn

The light from distant stars

The wreckage of a plane

The space between your teeth

The itch you cannot scratch

The mentally unfit

The pimple on your lip

Isn’t that the way (isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

I’m the ice cubes in your glass

A busted cadillac

A garden of delight

A joker in your deck

Well it ain’t in what I feel

No, it ain’t in what I say

In the pleasure of a kiss

It never fades away

Isn’t that the way (isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

It’s supposed to be?

(isn't that the way)

You and i
