like humans do

Singer:david byrne

for millions of years

in millions of homes

a man loved a woman

a child it was born

it learned how to hurt

and it learned how to cry

like humans do

i'm breathin in

i'm breathin out

so slip inside this funky house

dishes in the sink

the tv's in repair

don't look at the floor

don't go up the stairs

i'm achin

i'm shakin

i'm breakin

like humans do

i work & i sleep & i dance & i'm dead

i'm eatin

i'm laughin' & i'm lovin' myself

we're eatin' off plates and we kiss with our tongues

like humans do

i'm breathin in

i'm breathin out

so slip inside this funky house

dishes in the sink

the tv's in repair

don't look at the floor

don't go up the stairs

i'm achin

i'm shakin

i'm breakin

like humans do

i'm breathin in

i'm breathin out

so slip inside this funky house

dishes in the sink

the tv's in repair

don't look at the floor

don't go up the stairs

i'm achin

i'm shakin

i'm breakin

like humans do

i'm breathin in

i'm breathin out

so slip inside this funky house

wiggle while you work

anybody can

the rain is pourin in on a woman & a man

i'm achin

i'm shakin

i'm breakin

like humans do

i'm breathin in

i'm breathin out ooh
