Girlfriend Is Better (Live)

[Verse 1: David Byrne, with Ednah Holt and Lynn Mabry] I...Who took the money? Who took the money away? And I...It's always showtime Here at the edge of the stage And 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 And I...no need to worry Everything'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 [Chorus 1: David Byrne, with Ednah Holt and Lynn Mabry] I’ve got a girlfriend that's better than that She has the smoke in her eyes She's moving up, going right through my heart She's gonna give me surprise Better than this, know that it's right I think you can if you like I got a girlfriend with bows in her hair And nothing is better than that (Is it?) [Verse 2: David Byrne, with Ednah Holt and Lynn Mabry] Down, down in the basement We hear the sound of machines And I...I'm driving in circles Come to my senses sometimes Why, why, why, why start it over? Nothing was lost, everything's free I don't care how impossible it seems [Chorus 2: David Byrne, with Ednah Holt and Lynn Mabry] Somebody calls you but you cannot hear Get closer to be far away Only one look and that’s all that it takes Maybe that’s all that we need All that it takes All that it takes All that it takes All that it takes I got a girlfriend that's better than that She goes wherever she likes (There she goes) [Chorus 3: David Byrne, with Ednah Holt and Lynn Mabry] I got a girlfriend that’s better than that Oh, everybody's getting involved 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 (Hahahaha) I got a girlfriend that's better than that And nothing is better than this Oh, is it?
