Talking Heads - Girlfriend Is Better lyrics

I . . . who took the money? Who took the money away? I . . . it's always showtime Here at the edge of the stage I, i, i, wake up and wonder What was the place, what was the name? We wanna wait, but here we go again... I . . . takes over slowly But doesn't last very long I . . . no need to worry Evr'ything's under control O - u - t but no hard feelings What do you know? take you away We're being taken for a ride again I got a girlfriend that's better than that She has the smoke in her eyes She's moving up, going right through my house She's ginna give me surprise Better than this, know that it's right I think you can if you like I git a girlfriend with bows in her hair And nothing is better than that Down, down in the basement We hear the sound of machines I, i, i'm driving in circles Come to my senses sometimes Why, why, why, why start it over? Nothing was lost, everthing's free I don't care how impossible it seems Somebody calls you but you cannot hear Get closer to be far away Only one look and that's all that we need Maybe that's all that it takes All that it takes, all that it takes All that it takes, all that it takes I got a girlfriend that's betther than that And she goes wherever she likes. (there she goes...) I got a girlfriend that's better than that Now everyone's getting involved She's moving up going right through my heart We might not ever get caught Going right through (try to stay cool) going through, staying cool I got a girlfriend that's better than that And nothing is better than you I got a girlfriend thats better that this And you don't remember at all As we get older and stop making sense You won't find her waiting long Stop making sense, stop making sense...stop making sense, making sense I got a girlfriend that's better than that And nothing is better that this ( is it? )
