Civilization - David Byrne[00:00:00]

Written by：Stephen Barber[00:00:00]

Somewhere between the darkness and light[00:00:12]

Faces all glow but its not too bright[00:00:16]

Civilization its all about knives and forks[00:00:21]

Isn't she here what time is it now[00:00:28]

Is this the right place do I fit with her crowd[00:00:32]

I'm gonna be a civilized man someday[00:00:37]

Part of me wants to jump and shout[00:00:46]

Part of me wants to tear it down[00:00:50]

I thought you might prefer the cabernet[00:00:55]

Civilization its all about sex[00:01:02]

Havin' a ball in a padded banquet[00:01:06]

I'm gonna be that really cool guy someday[00:01:11]

The waiter looks me over[00:01:21]

Would you like cream or sugar[00:01:23]

I don't know what was I supposed to say[00:01:25]

She wonders if I'll notice[00:01:30]

I should have brought some roses[00:01:32]

Her plate is full she hasn't eaten all day[00:01:34]

Glasses collect we order some booze[00:01:41]

She looks at me I stare at her shoes[00:01:45]

Mature situations maybe a broken heart[00:01:50]

Maybe I ought to pay the bill[00:01:59]

Maybe she thinks I never will[00:02:03]

A million things that cross a woman's mind[00:02:08]

Just be yourself well that's what they say[00:02:15]

I barely know who I was yesterday[00:02:19]

I'm gonna be that civilized guy someday[00:02:24]

Good friends and conversations[00:02:34]

The rise and fall of nations[00:02:36]

A moments glory and they've had their day[00:02:38]

And on my high school folder[00:02:43]

I drew a big gorilla[00:02:45]

Something familiar something far far away[00:02:47]

Somewhere between the darkness and light[00:02:54]

She touches my hand she don't seem to mind[00:02:58]

We can go home we can be civilized[00:03:03]
