Tiny Town

David Byrne

It's a tiny town, & you can hang around

With me

And it's a tiny town, & ev'rybody knows what

You been doin'

'Cause it's a tiny town, teeny weeny town, tiny town, tiny town

And ev'ry little town, if you look around

Is a tiny town, tiny town, tiny town



Be careful my darlin'

What you say and do

The shit that you make

Comes right back to you



And the whole wide world is a tiny town

Full of tiny ideas

With each tiny heart pumpin' up and down

Come by tiny with me



Such a tiny town, but we have trouble

Livin' with each other

Some would knock you down

Someone else would like to steal your lover



It's a tiny town and it's enough to make you

Lose your mind

And mother nature say ? she don't play that way

So quit your cryin'



Mama still loves you

When you go astray

You don't need to push

Her in her grave



In my tiny mind you are tiny too

I'll be tiny tonight

For each tiny me there's a tiny you

Close your tiny town eyes



And the birds sweetly singin'

In the tiny town trees

And the animals ask what we?re doin?

It's as plain as can be



I see your sadness

Like birds in the air

I see them all

Flying away



In each tiny heart in this tiny world

Is a tiny desire

And each tiny boy and each tiny girl

Close their tiny town eyes



(Repeat 1st chorus)



And the whole wide world is a tiny town

Full of tiny ideas

With our tiny hearts pumpin' up and down

Come be tiny with me
