Slippery People

I was introduced to the Talking Heads in the early 80's sometime by my friend Barb. I was an instant fan, I really don't think anything else need be said about them. From the concert movie Stop Making Sense (which if you have not seen, go do it now) directed by Jonathan Demme... Tonight, I present to you, Slippery People by The Talking Heads

What about the time?
You were fallin' over
Fell on your face
You must be having fun
Walk lightly!
Think of a time.
You'd best believe
This thing is real

Put away that gun
This part is simple
Try to recognize
What is in your mind
God help us!
Help us loose our minds
These slippery people
help us understand

What's the matter with him? - (He's alright!)
How do ya know? - (The lord won't mind..)
Don't know no games - (He's alright!)
Love from the bottom to the top!
Turn like a wheel! - (He's alright!)
See for yourself! - (The lord won't mind..)
We're gonna move! - (Right now!)
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel!

I remember when
Sittin' in the tub
Pulled out the plug
The water was runnin' out
Cool down
Stop acting crazy
They're gonna leave
And we'll be on our own
Seven times five
They were living creatures
Watch 'em come to life
Right before your eyes
Backsliding!
How do you do?
These slippery people
Gonna see you through

What's the matter with him? - (He's alright!)
How do ya know? - (The lord won't mind..)
Don't know no games - (He's alright!)
Love from the bottom to the top!
Turn like a wheel! - (He's alright!)
See for yourself! - (The lord won't mind..)
We're gonna move! - (Right now!)
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel!

Alright!
The lord won't mind..
Alright!
Love from the bottom to the top!
Alright!
The lord won't mind..
Right now!
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel!
