Somebody Lyrics by David Byrne

Somebody Lyrics

    Somebody, somebody's gettin' outa bed
    Somebody, somebody's gettin' herself dressed
    Somebody, somebody combin' back her hair
    Somebody, somebody dancin' down the stairs

    And on the tv and in magazines
    She sees the people she would like to be

    Somebody, somebody steals away her dreams
    Somebody, somebody - race is all they see
    Somebody, somebody takes away her pride
    Somebody, somebody don't know wrong from right

    Now they have taken everything she owns
    How did she ever get this far from home?

    See how we are
    There ain't no four-leaf clover
    In the blink of an eye
    Ev'rything changes
    We gotta start all over

    Down in that deep muddy river (so long ago)
    Blood is much thicker than water (the angels know)
    Love is the ocean we swim in (so long ago)
    Carry us to our beginning (the angels know)

    Somebody, somebody takes away our name
    Somebody, somebody tell me who i am
    Somebody, somebody testify for love
    Somebody, somebody where are you tonight?

    Down in that deep muddy river (so long ago)
    Blood is much thicker than water (the angels know)
    She hears a voice sweetly singing (so long ago)
    Carry us to our beginning (the angels know)
