Cool Water - Talking Heads[00:00:00]
Written by:Chris Frantz/David Byrne/Jerry Harrison/Tina Weymouth[00:00:00]
Day by day[00:00:37]
Whistle while you work[00:00:41]
Our backs are breaking[00:00:46]
Up from hollow earth[00:00:50]
From end to end[00:00:55]
The noise begins[00:00:59]
In the human battle stations[00:01:03]
And the big ones[00:01:06]
Coming in[00:01:09]
Work work work work[00:01:12]
Work till holes are filled[00:01:17]
Work work work work[00:01:21]
Bags of bone and skin[00:01:26]
Lovers hold hands[00:01:30]
Tossing their heads[00:01:33]
Tangled in hair[00:01:35]
Tied to earth[00:01:39]
With skin and glue[00:01:43]
But their skin is the same as yours[00:01:48]
Coming in for the world to see[00:01:51]
They can sit at the table too[00:01:53]
The same blood as you and me[00:01:55]
Speak very softly[00:02:07]
Hold my hand[00:02:11]
Someone is sleeping[00:02:16]
In my bed[00:02:20]
Priests pass by[00:02:25]
Worms crawl in[00:02:29]
One dreams to be[00:02:34]
One dream[00:02:38]
For all[00:02:40]
His skin is the same as yours[00:02:43]
Is he not made the same as you[00:02:45]
And some have fallen down[00:02:47]
Blood spilled on the ground[00:02:50]
Work work work[00:02:53]
Till his life is done[00:02:56]
The old man[00:03:42]
Is at our door[00:03:47]
And he's knocking[00:03:49]
Knocking[00:03:52]
As his neighbors weep[00:03:55]
Each day repeats[00:04:00]
Are we nothing in your[00:04:05]
Eyes someone answer[00:04:07]
Someone answer this[00:04:11]
Rusted garden gate[00:04:14]
Can barely even stand[00:04:17]
Their work is over now[00:04:23]
And rest will be at hand[00:04:26]
Is their skin not the same as yours[00:04:31]
Can they sit at the table to drink[00:04:33]
Cool water[00:04:36]
Cool water[00:04:40]
And his lungs are filled with rain[00:04:44]
And the waters rushing in[00:04:49]
