[Verse 1: David Byrne]
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
[Hook: David Byrne & St. Vincent]
Something I should tell you
But we are never alone
[Verse 2: David Byrne]
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
[Hook: David Byrne & St. Vincent]
