The Cowboy Mambo (hey Lookit Me Now)

David Byrne

I can't find my way around this table

I can't find my way around your face

I can't find my way around your body

And wasted days turn into wasted nights



But

Hey lookit me now!

Hey lookit me now!



The future isn't quite what you imagined

Ev'rything you valued has been sold

Ev'ry heart that takes a chance is broken

Now I don't see you laugh at us no mo'



Hey lookit you now!

Hey lookit you now!



Green grass grows around the backyard shithouse

That is where the sweetest flowers bloom

We are the flowers growin' in God's garden

And that is why he spreads the shit around



So

Hey lookit us now!

Hey lookit us now!



Hey lookit me now!

Hey lookit me now!
