Pull up the Roots

Talking Heads

    Hello again
    Yes indeed my friend
    I can tell
    Goin' get together again
    I could be right
    I could be wrong
    I feel nice when I sing this song
    And I don't mind
    Whatever happens is fine
    Baby likes to keep on playing
    What do I know, what do I know?
    Wilder than the place we live in
    I'll take you there, I'll take you there
    I don't mind some slight disorder
    Pull up the roots pull up the roots
    And I know ev'ry living creature
    Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

    And I know you
    I understand what you do
    Yes, indeed
    I put the hat on my head
    Come outta your mess
    Bring yourself in
    I feel nice when I start to sing
    And I can see
    Ev'ryone else is like me

    Towns that disappeared completely
    Pull up the roost, pull up the roots
    Miles and miles of endless highway
    Pull up the roost, pull up the roots
    Colored lights and shiney curtains
    I'll take you there, I'll take you there
    Ev'rything has been forgiven
    Pull up the roost, pull up the roots

    Well I have a good time when I go out of my mind
    And it's a wonderful place and I can't wait to be there
    And I hear beautiful sounds coming outta the ground
    Gonna take us a while, but we'll go hundreds of times

    Baby likes to keep on playing
    What d'you know? What d'you I know?
    Wilder than the place we live in
    I'll take you there, I'll take you there
    And I don't mind some slight disorder
    Pull up the roots pull up the roots
    And no more time for talkin' it over
    Pull up the roots, pull up the roots

    Well I have a good time when I go out of my mind
    And it's a wonderful place and I can't wait to be there
    And I hear beautiful sounds coming outta the ground
    Someone musta been high but I guess it's alright
