Sad Song by David Byrne



You may think I look sad
But I am just sleeping
It’s my facial expression
I’m probably dreaming

Would you like to be sad?
Would you like me to teach you?
Well, you can learn to be sad
But you must practice like I do

Na na na, na na na na ...

You must follow directions
And learn it right from the start
There isn’t a short cut
It must come from your heart

Well there are those who are happy
And there are those who are wise
But it’s the truly sad people
Who get the most out of life

Na na na, na na na na ...

You may think I look sad
But I am just sleeping
It’s my facial expression
I’m probably dreaming

David "big suit" Byrne was the psycho killer with the group "Talking heads" I liked his style of singing especially on "once in a lifetime". He has advanced the career of Jim White, because both are grotesque gothic mystics. They both know that in this modern world.

"Now you're paying top dollar
For what you used to get for free."

I don't want no part of it.
