Civilization Lyrics

Tweet
(David Byrne) Somewhere between the darkness and light Faces all glow but its not too bright Civilization, its all about knives and forks Isn't she here? What time is it now? Is this the right place? Do I fit with her crowd? I'm gonna be a civilized man someday Part of me wants to jump and shout Part of me wants to tear it down I thought you might prefer the cabernet Civilization, its all about sex Havin' a ball in a padded banquet I'm gonna be that really cool guy someday The waiter looks me over Would you like cream or sugar? I don't know - what was I supposed to say She wonders if I'll notice I should have brought some roses Her plate is full, she hasn't eaten all day Glasses collect we order some booze She looks at me, I stare at her shoes Mature situations, maybe a broken heart Maybe I ought to pay the bill Maybe she thinks I never will A million things that cross a woman's mind Just be yourself, well that's what they say I barely know who I was yesterday I'm gonna be that civilized guy someday Good friends and conversations The rise and fall of nations A moments glory and they've had their day And on my high school folder I drew a big gorilla Something familiar, something far, far away Somewhere between the darkness and light She touches my hand, she don't seem to mind We can go home, we can be civilized
