Like Humans Do

David Byrne David Byrne

For millions of years, in millions of homes
A man loved a woman, a child it was born
It learned how to hurt and it learned how to cry
Like humans do

I'm breathin' in
I'm breathin' out
Ohh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohh!

Dishes in the sink
TV's in repair
Don't look at the floor
Don't go up the stairs

I'm achin'
I'm shakin'
I'm breakin'
Like humans do

I'm achin'
I'm shakin'
I'm breakin'
Like humans do

I work and I sleep and I dance and I'm dead
I'm eatin', I'm laughin', I'm loving myself
I never watch TV except when I'm stoned
Like humans do

I'm breathin' in
I'm breathin' out
Ohh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohh!

Dishes in the sink
TV's in repair
Don't look at the floor
Don't go up the stairs

I'm achin'
I'm shakin'
I'm breakin'
Like humans do

I'm achin'
I'm shakin'
I'm breakin'
Like humans do

I'm breathin' in
I'm breathin' out
Ohh!
So slip inside this funky house
Ohh!

Wiggle while you work
Anybody can
The rain is pouring in
On a woman and a man

I'm achin'
I'm shakin'
I'm breakin'
Like humans do

I'm breathin' in
I'm breathing out
Ohh!
