David Byrne - Gasoline And Dirty Sheets lyrics

Someone in a dangerous place Someone got lost somewhere Many people are locked outside Many people lost out there Many people they can’t get in Many people they pay no mind Many people they leave this place And many people are freed of time Well now this man he could be king This woman she’s the royalty This woman she’s brave and strong She’s got no name but she is family Gasoline and dirty sheets Politics and painted face She says that freedom costs too much She says the mind is not place This situation drags me down They form a country in my house On the stage and in the street I will be a human being I will come down off the stage The marketplace and the shopping mall Into the house, the rooms of war Look at me now and recall Vacuum-packed don’t rock my world And the money back guarantee don’t make my day And no feeling of security They say the answer’s one click away Gasoline and dirty sheets Politics and a painted face She says that freedom costs too much She says the mind is not place Gasoline and dirty sheets Politics and a painted face She says that freedom costs too much She says the mind is not place
