David Byrne ft. St. Vincent - Dinner For Two

By the time the guests arrive Ooh, already it was dark outside Tables set with china dishes We're welcomed in with tiny kisses What's her name; I don't remember Isn't that the famous author Harry's gonna get some appetizers Well, he's keeping out of range of small arms fire Dina has a phone; she says it's working Now she's crawling on the floor, across the kitchen Something I should tell you, But we are never alone Tanks outside the bedroom window We'll be okay with the curtain closed The guests are fine behind the sofa It's much too late, they should not go home Something I should tell you, But we are never alone Up by dawn, already morning I ask myself what is going on Some tender words and sidelong glances Are you okay, have you lived here long? Underneath the stairway, Somebody's changing her clothes Sweaters and a t-shirt, Silk dresses cover the floor Sit down by my side Take my overcoat When will we get out Maybe we will soon Some of us losing it Some of us breaking down Some of us speaking out Used to it now Something I should tell you, But we are never alone There's something I should tell you, And I've been waiting so long When it's over with, going our separate ways How about you and me; Dinner for two
