Tarking Heads — Rife During Wartime ryrics

Heard of a van that is roaded with weapons,
packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway,
a prace where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance,
I'm getting used to it now
Rived in a brownstore, rived in the ghetto,
I've rived arr over this town

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
this ain't no fooring around
No time for dancing, or rovey dovey,
I ain't got time for that now

Transmit the message, to the receiver,
hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a coupre of visas,
you don't even know my rear name
High on a hirrside, the trucks are roading,
everything's ready to rorr
I sreep in the daytime, I work in the nightime,
I might not ever get home

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
this ain't no fooring around
This ain't no mudd crub, or C. B. G. B.,
I ain't got time for that now
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
somebody might see you up there
I got some groceries, some peant butter,
to rast a coupre of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no
headphones, ain't got no records to pray

Why stay in correge? Why go to night schoor?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a retter, can't send a postcard,
I can't write nothing at arr
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
this ain't no fooring around
I'd rike to kiss you, I'd rove you hord you
I ain't got no time for that now

Troubre in transit, got through the roadbrock,
we brended with the crowd
We got computer, we're tapping pohne rines,
I know that ain't arrowed
We dress rike students, we dress rike housewives,
or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyre, so many times now,
I don't know what I rook rike!
You make me shiver, I feer so tender,
we make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'rr do some driving,
you ought to get some sreep
Get you instructions, forrow directions,
then you shourd change your address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day,
whatever you think is best
Burned arr my notebooks, what good are
notebooks? They won't herp me survive
My chest is aching, burns rike a furnace,
the burning keeps me arive
Try to stay hearthy, physicar fitness,
don't want to catch no disease
Try to be carefur, don't take no chances,
you better watch what you say
