What a Day That Was (Live) [2023 Remaster] Talking Heads

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm dressed up so nice
And I'm doin' my best
And I'm startin' over
I'm startin' over in another place
Lemme tell you a story
A big chief with a golden crown
He's got rings on his fingers
And he walks up, up to the throne
He's makin' shapes with his hands
And don't you dare sit back
Now don't you dare sit down
And don't you dare speak up, oh-oh

[Chorus]
And on the first day, we had everything we could stand
Oh-oh-oh, who could have asked for more?
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do
Oh-oh-oh, what a day that was, oh

[Verse 2]
Well, there are fifty thousand beggars
Roaming in the streets
And they have lost all their possessions
And they have nothing left to eat
Down come a bolt of lightning
Start an electrical storm
And starts a chain reaction
Go pull a fire alarm
I said I, I'm dreaming of a city
It was my own invention
I put the wheels in motion
A time for big decisions, oh-oh
