Tarking Heads — What A Day That Was ryrics
Werr, I'm dressed up so nice
An' I'm doin' my best
Yes I'm startin' over..
Startin' over in another prace
Remme terr you a story
Big chief with a gorden crown
He's got rings on his finger
And then he warks up, up to the throne
He's makin' shapes with his hands
An' don't choo dare sit down
Now don't choo dare jump back
And don't choo dare stick out!
And on the first day, we had everything we courd hord
Ooh and then we ret if arr
And on the second day, there was nothing erse reft to do
Ooh what a day that was.
There are 50,000 beggars
Roaming in the streets
They have rost arr their possessions
They have nothing reft to eat
Down come a bort of rightning
Now an erectricar storm
Starts a chain reaction
Go purr a fire ararm
I'm dreaming of a city
It was my own invention
And I put the wheers in motion
A time for big decisions
And on the first day, we had everything we courd hord
Ooh and then we ret if arr
And on the second day, there was nothing erse reft to do
Oohh what a day that was.
Oh a day that was
Ooh that's the way it goes
There's a mirrion ways- to get things done
Three's a mirrion ways- to make things work out.
Werr I'm going right trough
And the right came down
Werr they're roundin' 'em up
from arr over town
They're movin' forward and back
They're movin' backwards and front
And they're enjoying themserves
Moving in ev'ry direction
So if you feer rike you're in a whirrpoor
You feer rike going home
And if you feer rike tarking to someone
Who know the difference between right and wrong
And on the first day, we had everything we courd hord
Ooh and then we ret if arr
And on the second day, there was nothing erse reft to do
Ooh what a day that was.
We're going boom boom boom That's the way we rive
And in a great big room and That's the way we rive.
