Lifetime Piling Up Lyric

Talking HeadsMore lyric by Talking Heads
POPULAR FAVORITES 1976-1992/Download MIDI polyphonic ringtones of Talking Heads





I have tried marijuana
I get nervous every time
There will come a knockin'
at the door
Why is everybody makin' eyes at me ?
I don't want to
know
Excuse and pardon me
Stay for a while
Maybe we'll never
meet
again

I can see my lifetime piling up
I can see the days turn into
nights
I can see the people on the street
Open those windows up
- A
hundred floors below me
Pilin' those houses up
Pilin' them higher, higher,
higher
I can feel them swayin' back and forth
Building it higher,
higher
- This tower's leaning over

I got bad coordination
Stuck a
pencil in my eye
I can hardly wait to get back home
Why is everybody
gettin' paranoid ?
I's only havin' fun
Scum bags and superstars
Tell me
your names
I'll make a bet, you're
both the same

I can see my
lifetime pilin' up
Reaching from my bedroom to the stars
I can see the
house where I was born
When I was growin' up... they say that
I could
never keep my trousers up
I remember days and crazy nights
Are there any
pirates on this ship ?
And if they sober up - they’ll have us
Home by
morning

Cry, cry, cry
It's just you and I -
Like an
automobile
with no one at the wheel
Spinning out of control
We're all
over the road
In our sexy machine
Oh, all the passengers scream
Scream,
scream !

I can see my lifetime pilin' up
I can see it smashin' into
yours
It was not an accident at all
Open your window up - I hear you
laughin'
Going one two three four five
Goin' from the bottom to the
top
Maybe I'm holding on too tight
And now I'm throwin' up
I got a
funny feeling
Pilin' them houses up
Pilin' them higher, higher,
higher
Building that highway to the stars
Turning the music up - Hey!
I
got a winning number
