Good and Evil - David Byrne

Caught you walkin' like a gangster

Saw you grabbin' the controls

Now you’re almost outta batteries

You gottta sweater much too small

Pokin' at your navel

Pointin' your finger too

You say your lips don’t even stick together

When the dust comes up Blowin' 'cross the plains

Pictures are fallin' in and outta their frames!

Singing: good and evil, good and evil

They turn 'em loose and they turn into people

Singing: good and evil, good and evil

They turn 'em loose and they turn into people

You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?

Let 'em go at it, let’s see what they do Now they’re wrestlin' with the forces of good and evil

They turn 'em loose and they turn into people

I have seen you do things backward

You don’t believe a word i say

Now you’re holdin' sticky paper

Money never fades away

Talkin' like a monster

Smellin' like a baby

You got a head like a bowl of cherries now

Don’t be surprised

You got what it takes

Messin' round like monkeys and apes

Singing: good and evil, good and evil

They turn 'em loose and they turn into people

Singing: good and evil, good and evil

They turn 'em loose and they turn into people

You know that roses and lilacs are funky too?

Let 'em go at it, let’s see what they do Ah — they’re messing with the forces of good and evil

They turn 'em loose, they turn into people
