Gasoline And Dirty Sheets Lyrics - David Byrne

Someone in a dangerous place 

Someone got lost somewhere 

Many people are locked outside 

Many people lost out there 

Many people, they can't get in 

Many people, they pay no mind 

Many people, they leave this place 

And many people are freed of time 

Well now this man, he could be king 

This woman, she's the royalty 

This woman, she's brave and strong 

She's got no name, but she is family 

Gasoline and dirty sheets 

Politics and painted face 

She says that freedom costs too much 

She says the mind is not a place

This situation drags me down 

They form a country in my house 

On the stage and in the street 

I will be a human being 

I will come down off the stage 

The marketplace and the shopping mall 

Into the house, the rooms of war 

Look at me now and recall 

Vacuum-packed don't rock my world 

And the money back guarantee don't make my day 

And no feeling of security 

They say the answer's one click away 

Gasoline and dirty sheets 

Politics and a painted face 

She says that freedom costs too much 

She says the mind is not a place 

Photos 

Gasoline and dirty sheets 

Politics and a painted face 

She says that freedom costs too much 

She says the mind is not a place
