Cities — текст песни (Talking Heads)

Think of london, a small city



Its dark, dark in the daytime

The people sleep, sleep in the daytime

If they want to, if they want to



Chorus



Im checking them out

Im checking them out

I got it figured out

I got it figured out

Theres good points and bad points

Find a city

Find myself a city to live in.



There are a lot of rich people in birmingham

A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses

Look over there!...a dry ice factory

A good place to get some thinking done



Down el paso way things get pretty spread out

People got no idea where in the world they are

They go up north and come back south

Still got no idea where in the world they are.

Did I forget to mention, to mention memphis

Home of elvis and the ancient greeks

Do I smell? I smell home cooking

Its only the river, its only the river.
