The Moment of Conception — текст песни (David Byrne)

At the moment of conception
I could see someone approaching
Will you be my disco dancer?
I could use a little coaching
Will you be my secret lover?
Mother, Father, Sister, Brother too

I was born without a conscience
Full of freedom, full of nonsense
From the mountains to the beaches
Eat the apples, steal the peaches
Will you be this wild child`s lady?
Will you carry me to safety?

Lock me up & take me home
I don`t wanna be free
Goin` crazy - on my own
It`s not where I wanna be

I behave without compassion
I see things I want to smash them
When I put our love in danger & treat you like a total stranger
I don`t really want to hurt you
I would stop it if I could do

Blame my school & blame my parents
& the genes that I inherit
Blame it on my older sister for showing me her dirty pictures
Blame the TV & the movies
Blame the lawyers & the juries

Lock me up & take me home
I don`t wanna be free
Goin` crazy - on my own
It`s not where I wanna be

At the moment of conception
At the moment of conception
