What A Day That Was by Talking Heads


Oh well i'm dressed up so nice

And i'm doing my best

And i'm starting over

I'm starting over in another place

 

Lemme tell you a story

A big chief with a golden crown

He's got rings on his fingers

And then he walks up up to the throne

 

He's making shapes with his hands

And don't you dare sit back

And don't you dare sit down

And don't you dare speak up

 

And on the first day we had everything we could stand

Who could've asked for more?

And on a second day there was nothing else left to do

Oh what a day that was

 

Well there are fifty thousand beggars

Roaming in the streets

And they have lost all their possessions

And they have nothing left to eat

Down come a bolt of lightning

Start an electrical storm

And starts a chain reaction

"go pull a fire alarm" i said that

 

I'm dreaming of a city

It was my own invention

I put the wheels in motion

A time for big decisions

 

And on the first day we had everything we could stand

Oh and then we let it fall

And on a second day there was nothing else left at all

Oh what a day that was

 

What a day that was

And that's the way it goes

There's a million ways to get things done

There's a million ways to make things work out

 

Oh well i'm going right through

And the light came down

And they're rounding them up

From all over town

 

They're moving forward and backwards

Moving backwards and front

And they're enjoying themselves

Moving in every direction

 

And if you feel like you're in a whirlpool

You feel like going home

You feel like talking to someone

Who know the difference between right and wrong

 

And on the first day we had everything we could stand

Oh and then we let it fall

And on a second day there was nothing else left at all

Oh what a day that was

 

We're going boom boom boom and that's the way we live

And in a great big room and that's the way we live

We're going boom boom boom and that's the way we live

And in a great big room and that's the way we live

We're going boom boom boom and that's the way we live

And in a great big room and that's the way we live
