Song title: Talking Heads - Lifetime Piling Up

Edit By: 216.73.216.138

I have tried marijuana
I get nervous every time
There will come a knockin at the door
Why is everybody makin eyes at me?
I dont want to know
Excuse and pardon me
Stay for a while
Maybe well never
Meet again

I can see my lifetime piling up
I can see the days turn into nights
I can see the people on the street
Open those windows up
A hundred floors below me
Pilin those houses up
Pilin them higher, higher, higher
I can feel them swayin back and forth
Building it higher, higher
This towers learning over

I got bad coordination
Stuck a pencil in my eye
I can hardly wait to get back home
Why is everybody gettin paranoid?
Is only havin fun
Scum-bags and superstars
Tell me your names
Ill make a bet, youre
Both the same

I can see my lifetime pilin up
Reaching from my bedroom to the stars
I can see the house where I was born
When I was growin up - they say that
I could never keep my trousers up
I remember days and crazy nights
Are there any pirates on this ship?
And if they sober up - theyll have us
Home by morning

Cry, cry, cry
Its just you and i
Like an automobile
With no one at the wheel
Spinning out of control
Were all over the road
In our sexy machine
All the passengers scream
Scream, scream!

I can see my lifetime pilin up
I can see it smashin into yours
It was not an accident at all
Open your window up - I hear you laughin

Goin one, two, three, four, five
Goin from the bottom to the top
Maybe Im holding on too tight
And now Im growin up
I got a funny feeling
Pilin those houses up
Pilin them higher, higher, higher
Building that highway to the stars
And turning the music up - hey!
I got a winning number
