Crash Songtext
von David Byrne

I met my love at a funeral
I′m tired of goodbyes and burials
Of friends that I've known
Some I just met, standing around
It′s hard to forget now, isn't it?


The war started in Bethlehem
A quarrel between holy men
Rocket's red glare
Night without end
Burning my eyes
It′s hard to forget now, isn′t it?

And if our cells are our destiny
I want to be free of biology
You are my friend
But I hurt you too
It is not what I intended to do


I saw my love by the restaurant
Diggin' for home fries in a garbage can
Ice cream and cake
Sweetness and light
A bottle of wine
Now that would be nice, wouldn′t it?
