Crosseyed and Painless by The Talking Heads

I prefer the Talking Heads version to Phish any day! This video is awesome and has just put me in the best mood!!! "Isn't it weird, sounds too absurd to me...The island of doubt, It's like the taste of medicine..."

Lost my shape-Trying to act casual! 
Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital 
I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident 
They're back!-To explain their experience 

Isn't it weird, Sounds to absurd to me 
Wasting away/And that was their policy 

I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me 
Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be 
Nothing there!-No information left of any kind 
Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs

There was a line, There was a formula
Sharp as a knife, Facts cut a hole in us
There was a line, There was a formula
Sharp as a knife, Facts cut a hole in us

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... 
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... 
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

The feeling returns, Whenever we close out eyes 
Lifting my head, looking around inside 

The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine 
Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen 
Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity
Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies

The feeling return, Whenever we close our eyes
Lifting my head, Looking around inside.

Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are late
Facts all come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want them to
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of things
Facts don't stain the furniture
Facts go out and slam the door
Facts are written all over your face
Facts continue to change their shape

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
