[Verse 1]
If you make a reference to some trouble that you know
Can it help you keep it under control
Or should I really reconsider
My reasons for going solo?
David Byrne on Bob Costas put it pretty well
But I put it better
[Chorus]
I still run the show
Don't you forget it
So I had to let some go
Don't think I don't regret it
Because I do and I don't
Think I'm better off alone
[Post-Chorus]
Man I could have made a big sound
But I love to let my friends down
[Verse 2]
Fewer moving parts means fewer broken pieces
When every other start requires a brand new thesis
One good friend remarks with a rightfully angry
"Jesus dude, none of us know what to do with you"
And I in my pride responded
I've got news for you
None of you have to, 'cause
[Chorus]
I still run the show
Don't you forget it
So I had to let some go
Don't think I don't regret it
Because I do and I don't
Think I'm better off alone
[Post-Chorus]
Man I could have made a big sound
But I love to let my good friends down
