Talking Heads
And She Was (Extended Mix)
[Verse 1]
And she was lying in the grass
And she could hear the highway breathing
And she could see a nearby factory
She's making sure she is not dreaming
See the lights of a neighbor's house
Now, she's starting to rise
Take a minute to concentrate
And she opens up her eyes
[Chorus]
The world was moving, she was right there with it and she was
The world was moving, she was floating above it and she was
And she was
[Verse 2]
And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress
And she was moving very slowly
Rising up above the Earth
Moving into the universe and she's
Drifting this way and that
Not touching the ground at all and she's
Up above the yard
[Chorus]
The world was moving, she was right there with it, and she was
(Hey, hey!)
The world was moving, she was floating above it and she was
(Hey, hey, hey!)
[Bridge]
She was glad about it, no doubt about it
She isn't sure about what she's done
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what she's done and she was
Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey!
[Robotic voice:]
The world was moving, she was right there with it and she was
The world was moving, she was floating above it and she was
Joining the world of missing persons and she was
Missing enough to feel alright and she was
And she was
And she was
[Verse 3]
And she was looking at herself
And things were looking like a movie
She had a pleasant elevation
She's moving out in all directions, oh, oh, oh
Hey hey hey h-hey hey, hey hey hey he-hey hey!
Hey hey hey h-hey hey, hey hey hey he-hey hey!
[Chorus]
The world was moving, she was right there with it and she was
(Hey! Whoo-hoo!)
The world was moving, she was floating above it and she was
(Hey, hey!)
Joining the world of missing persons and she was
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Missing enough to feel alright and she was
(Ha! Ha!)
And she was
And she was (ha! hey! hey!)
And she was (h-hey! hey! hey, hey!)
And she was (hot! hot-t-tah-t-tah! hey! hey!)
And she was (Hey, hey, hey!)
And she was (And she was!)
And she was (And she wa-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh)
And she was
