David Byrne Dialog Box Lyrics

Dialog Box Lyrics

Picture this

Bumping lips

Everyone talks

Do a dialogue box



They shake and bake

Make a cranky face

They got rocks in the head

Got rocks in the bed



Pull the hood down

Grab the fold out

Is it too loud?

Is it all right?



Makin' contact

And you know that

Need a tight fit

To survive



Romeo

Said Juliette

Got a dialogue box

Hey look at me, that's my answer



All Sparkly white

Shiny bright

A genuine smile

The Renegade style



Gonna heat 'em up

And stir the pot

bake it a while

Then cool on the side



Tribulation

Revelation

Absolution

Prophesized



I'm a rich man,

I'm a poor man

But the main thing

I'm alive



Lost in Space

Cosmic haze

Beautiful wreck

Special effect



Clean and pure

Swift and sure

I'm ready to drop

In a dialogue box



Decoration

Innovation

My creation

Any size



If you try it

And you like it

You can have it customized



Gonna test ya

With a gesture

Do I feel ya?

Are ya scared?



In the darkness

In the details

At the movies

Or a play



All crinkled up

Delirious

Fall through the cracks

In a dialogue box



With a smiley bump

Gonna line 'em up

And the question I ask



Hey look at me

That's my answer
