Fuzzy Freaky

David Byrne

Rose is tattoo'd in the perfect place

She bears the burden of a perfect face

The Monkey Boy

The Leopard Girl

The strange is also beautiful



It's summertime and the grass is high

Fuzzy freaky, funny family-



It's my body and I'll eat it too

To do whatever touches you

My body speaks

My tongue cannot

My belly rumbles but the words are stuck (so come out-)



It's summertime and the weeds are high

Fuzzy freaky, funny family--



All amplified, She's scandalized, I'm changin' size

(Who was it?, Jump on it!)

He's talkin' trash, an' he can't get back, he's built to last

(Inspired! Desired!)

I'm walkin' low, My grass has grown, an' I won't stay down

(Excited! Delighted!)



It's summertime and the grass is high

Fuzzy wuzzy, freaky family--



I'm awfully cute, I'm awfully cold

I'm sometimes rich and I'm sometimes po'

A butterfly when I graduate

You'll have to stop me if I get too big



It's summertime and the weeds are high

Fuzzy freaky, funny family



He's in reverse, He'll kiss himself in perfect health

(Inflated! X-Rated!)

I smell you now,

A haunted house, n' a squeaky sound

(Inspired! Desired!)

An' I'm wide enough, I'm almost grown, I won't stay down

(Somebody! Somebody!)
