Seen And Not Seen (2005 Remastered Album Version) - Talking Heads (传声头)[00:00:00]

He would see faces in movies on T V[00:00:20]

In magazines and in books [00:00:24]

He thought that some of these faces[00:00:27]

Might be right for him[00:00:29]

And through the years[00:00:31]

By keeing an ideal facial[00:00:34]

Structure fixed in his mind[00:00:35]

Or somewhere in the back of his mind[00:00:37]

That he might [00:00:40]

By force of will cause his face[00:00:42]

To approach those of his ideal [00:00:45]

The change would be very subtle[00:00:50]

It might take ten years or so[00:00:54]

Gradually his face would change its' shape[00:00:59]

A more hooked nose[00:01:03]

Wider thinner lips[00:01:06]

Beady eyes[00:01:09]

A larger forehead [00:01:14]

He imagined that this was an ability[00:01:28]

He shared with most other people[00:01:31]

They had also molded[00:01:34]

Their faced according to some ideal[00:01:35]

Maybe they imagined[00:01:38]

That their new face would better[00:01:39]

Suit their personality[00:01:42]

Or maybe they imagined that their[00:01:43]

Personality would be forced to[00:01:46]

Change to fit the new appearance[00:01:49]

This is why first impressions are often correct[00:01:58]

Although some people might have made mistakes[00:02:07]

They may have[00:02:12]

Arrived at an appearance[00:02:13]

That bears no relationship to the[00:02:15]

They may have picked an ideal[00:02:18]

Appearance based on some childish[00:02:20]

Whim or momentary impulse[00:02:23]

Some may have gotten half way[00:02:28]

There and then changed their minds [00:02:29]

He wonders if he too might[00:02:47]

Have made a similar mistake[00:02:49]
