Talking Heads - black midi

I call this one the disappearing tongue

Some nights it’s off, some nights it’s on

When it goes with a twist, it comes off

Put it in a vase and pass it on

Pull out feathers, tear off cellophane

Pull out feathers, tear off cellophane

Sitting vacant on plough lane

Sitting vacant

Sitting lame

Sitting on plough lane

Sitting vacant

Sitting lame

Pull out feathers, tear off cellophane

Pull out feathers, tear off cellophane

Yeah, sure, I’ll leave the house

But first let me lose a few more pounds

If only I could be 3 stone 20 pounds, oh

Are 10 kilograms enough?
