SINGER: Talking Heads

SONG:Pull Up The Roots

Hello again
yes indeed my friend
i can tell
goin' get together again
i could be right
i could b ewrong
i feel nice when i sing this song
and i don't mind
whatever happens is fine
baby likes to keep on playing . . .
what do i know, what do i know?
wilder than the place we live in . . .
i'll take you there, i'll take you there
i don't mind some slight disorder . . .
pull up the roots pull up the roots
and i know ev'ry living creature . .
pull up the roots, pull up the roots
and i know you
i understand what you do
yes, indeed
i put the hat on my head
come outa your mess
bring yourself in
i feel nice when i start to sing
and i can see
ev'ryone else is like me
Towns that dissapeared completely . . .
pull up the roost, pull up the roots
miles and miles of endless highway . . .
pull up the roost, pull up the roots
colored lights and shiney curtains . . .
i'll take you there, i'll take you there
ev'rything has been forgiven . . .
pull up the roost, pull up the roots
well i have a good time . . . when i go out of my mind
and it's a wonderful place . . . and i can't wait to be there
and i hear beautiful sounds . . . coming outa the ground
gonna take us a while . . . but we'll go hundreds of times
Baby likes to keep on playing . . .
what d'you know? what d'you i know?
wilder than the place we live in . . .
i'll take you there, i'll take you there
and i don't mind some slight disorder . . .
pull up the roots pull up the roots
and no more time for talkin' it over . . .
pull up the roots, pull up the roots
well i have a good time . . . when i go out of my mind
and it's a wonderful place . . . and i can't wait to be there
and i hear beautiful sounds . . . coming outa the ground
someone musta been high . . . but i guess it's alright
