Talking Heads - Cities (Alternate Version) lyrics

Think of London, a small city It's dark, dark in the daytime The people sleep, sleep in the daytime If they want to, if they want to I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points, some bad points It all works out Even though I'm a little freaked out, I'll Find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in Down El Paso way, things get pretty spread out People got no idea where in the world they are They go up north, come back south Still got no idea where in the world they are I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points, some bad points It all works out Even though I'm a little freaked out, I'll Find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points, some bad points Oh, it all works out Sometimes I'm a little freaked out I'll find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in Help me... There are a lot of rich people in Birmingham A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses Look over there! A dry ice factory Good place to get some thinking done I'm checking it out I'm checking it out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points, some bad points But it all works out Even though I'm a little freaked out, I'll Find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in Did I forget to mention, forget to mention Memphis? Home of Elvis and the ancient Greeks Do I smell? I smell home cooking! It's only the river, it's only the river I'm checking it out I'm checking 'em out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points, some bad points It all works out Sometimes I'm a little freaked out I'll find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in Find a city Find myself a city to live in I will find a city Find myself a city to live in [Repeat until end]
