Blind Songtext
von David Byrne

Uh, signs
Signs are lost
Signs disappeared
Turn invisible
Got no sign

Somebody got busted
Got a face of stone
And a ghostwritten biography
Well, dogs start to run in
Looking for food

Dogs start a rushing in
And they′re looking at you
It was light
By five
Torn all apart


All in the name of democracy
He's hurt
He′s dying
They claimed he was a terrorist
Claimed to avert a catastrophe

Well, someone should have told him
That the buck stops here
Someone should have said
He was involved with thieves

And they're blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

No sense of harmony, no sensе of time
Don't mention harmony, say
What is it, what is it, what is it?
Give a littlе shock, and he raises his hand
Somebody shouts out, says

What is it, what is it, what is it?
He was shot down in the night!
People ride by but his body′s still alive
The girl in the window what has she done?
She looks down at me
Says "I don′t want to die!"


And I'm blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Yeah, somebody could have told us where they go
Crawling all around looking for foot, foot, footprints
Now, tell me what the hell have we become?
Some dirty little bastards, what the hell is going on?
No sense of harmony, no sense of time

Don′t mention harmony, say
What is it, hat is it, hat is it?
Give a little shock, and he raises his hand
Somebody shouts out, says
What is it, what is it, what is it?

He was shot down in the night!
People ride by but his body's still alive
The girl in the window what has she done?
She looks down at me
Says "I don′t want to die!"

And they're blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
And they′re blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Yeah, they're blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Yeah, blind, blind
Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Ooh
