Grown Backwards

David Byrne Grown Backwards Album

12.Astronaut

The Western lands
Day turns to Night
The immaterial play of light
It's very nice out here

Poked my hand
In a hornet's nest
They flew out around my face
I guess it's just self defense

The camera pans
The focus shifts
The world is a hornet's nest
I learned my lesson well

I surf the net
And watch TV
There's peace in the Middle East
Feel like I'm an astronaut
Now I am an astronaut
