And She Was Lyrics By Talking Heads

    hey

    and she was lying in the grass
    and she could hear the highway breathing
    and she could see a nearby factory
    she’s making sure she is not dreaming
    see the lights of a neighbor’s house
    now she’s starting to rise
    take a minute to concentrate
    and she opens up her eyes

    the world was moving and she was
    right there with it and she was
    the world was moving she was
    floating above it and she was
    and she was

    and she was drifting through the backyard
    and she was taking off her dress
    and she was moving very slowly
    rising up above the earth
    moving into the universe
    and she’s drifting this way and that
    not touching the ground at all
    and she’s up above the yard

    the world was moving and she was right there with it
    and she was
    hey hey
    the world was moving she was floating above it
    and she was
    hey hey hey

    and she was glad about it no doubt about it
    she isn’t sure about what she’s done
    no time to think about what to tell them
    no time to think about what she’s done
    and she was
    hey hehey hey

    and she was looking at herself
    and things were looking like a movie
    she had a pleasant elevation
    she’s moving out in all directions oh oh oh

    pre
    hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
    hey hey hey hey hey hey
    hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
    hey hey hey hey hey

    the world was moving she was right there with it
    and she was
    the world was moving she was floating above it
    and she was

    joining the world of missing persons
    and she was hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
    missing enough to feel alright
    and she was ha ha

    and she was
    and she was
    and she was
    and she was
    and she was hey hey
    and she was
    and she was
    and she was
