His Wife Refused — David Byrne

A great big house- with nothing in it

He comes home says "now wait a minute"

Hes comin in shes goin out

He turns around says, "whats that about? "

Do what they like, the kids in school

Think she dont know, now, whos kidding who?

He turns around says "who wants to know? "

Open the door and theres nobody home!

Go ahead- fill their heads

Go ahead- fill their heads with poison

Take a look- these people are savages!

Take a look- at their misfortune

Im goin up I got a message

Im gonna wait till I close the door

Im gonna wrap, myself in blankets

Im gonna, roll out, across the floor

Well the bride bride and the groom

Run in a circle around their house

Theyre goin out theyre comin in

Inside a circle around their house

These shoes dont fit- this tie dont match

Im gonna throw it away when I get home.

Im turned around Im doin my best

Im gonna wait until the light comes on.

Yes hes the king and shes the queen

Run in a circle around their house.

Open the door and let them in

Inside a circle around their house.
