The Moment Of Conception Lyrics - David Byrne

At the moment of conception 

I could see someone approaching 

Will you be my disco dancer? 

I could use a little coaching 

Will you be my secret lover? 

Mother, Father, Sister, Brother too 

I was born without a conscience 

Full of freedom, full of nonsense 

From the mountains to the beaches 

Eat the apples, steal the peaches 

Will you be this wild child's lady? 

Will you carry me to safety?

Lock me up & take me home 

I don't wanna be free 

Goin' crazy - on my own 

It's not where I wanna be 

I behave without compassion 

I see things I want to smash them 

When I put our love in danger & treat you like a total stranger 

I don't really want to hurt you 

I would stop it if I could do 

Blame my school & blame my parents 

& the genes that I inherit 

Blame it on my older sister for showing me her dirty pictures 

Blame the TV & the movies 

Blame the lawyers & the juries 

Photos 

Lock me up & take me home 

I don't wanna be free 

Goin' crazy - on my own 

It's not where I wanna be 

At the moment of conception
