Talking Heads
Making Flippy Floppy (Live)
[Intro]
Wait a minute
Everybody, get in line

[Verse 1]
Nothing can come between us
Nothing gets you down
Nothing strikes your fancy
Nothing turns you on
But you don't have to wait for more instructions
No one makes a monkey out of me
We lie on our backs, feet in the air
Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain

[Chorus]
Snap into position
Bounce 'til you ache
Step out of line and
And you end up in jail

[Verse 2]
Doctor, doctor
We have nothing in our pockets
We continue
But we have nothing left to offer
Faces pressed against the window
Hey, they're just my friends
Check this out, don't be so slick
Break our backs, it goes like this
[Chorus]
We are born without eyesight
We are born without sin
And our mama protects us
From the cold and the rain
We're in no hurry
Sugar and spice
We sing in the darkness
And we open our eyes (open up)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I can't believe it
And people are strange
Our president's crazy
Did you hear what he said
Business and pleasure
Lie right to your face
Divide it in sections
And then give it away

[Chorus]
There are no big secrets
Don't believe what you read
We have great big bodies
Got great big heads
Run-a-run-a-run it all together
Check it out, still don't make no sense
Makin' flippy floppy
Tryin' to do my best
Lock the door
We kill the beast
Kill it!
