David Byrne - Lightning lyrics

There's a funny lightning Threatening with striking But it moves too quick for a picture There's a funny lightning Round the corner hiding But I'm too smart just to catch it With gloves and rubber So I stay put right here Watching the sky for tears Let the fools and cowboys roar to wrecks But if I should wake up and find my home's in half Who is it? Blame nature, I guess I have to laugh And if I should wake up and find my bed has moved Six inches, six closer to the west But this funny lightning I wanna invite in If I could learn how to teach it I salt the corners of My room because, because A ghost can never be too careful And if I should wake up and find my home's in half? Who did it? Oh, nature, I hope you have a laugh And if I should wake up and find my bed has moved Twelve inches, twelve closer to my god Whip crash, there's a flash, and I'm back to wanting more The crack is movin' up the wall Whip crash there's flash and I'm back to wanting more I can't help thinking this is war Whip crash, there's a flash, and I'm back to wanting more The crack is movin' up the wall Whip crash there's flash and I'm back to wanting more I can't help thinking this is war
