Talking Heads - Swamp HD (Original 1984 VHS Audio)

It’s a shame clips from the movie keep getting deleted from TH-cam. The bass in this is much better than the SMS album.

I’m almost 15 but when I was a baby my dad showed me this movie. I loved it. And this song was probably my favorite or at least in the top 3. And still is Last year my friends and I saw the 4k version and we were going crazy during this song. It is so damn good. It’s the equivalent to the Beatles I am the walrus. Again, so damn good.

(Lyrics)
Now let me tell you a story
The devil, he has a plan
A bag of bones in his pocket
Get anything you want
No dust and no rocks
The whole thing is over
All those beauties in solid motion
All those beauties, they're gonna swallow you up
Let's go
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
One time too many
Too far to go
Hi, we've come to take you home
And when they split those atoms, it's hotter than the sun
Blood is a special substance, and they're gonna pray for that man
So wake up, young lovers
The whole thing is over
Watch out! Touch monkeys
All that blood gonna swallow you whole
Let's go
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi (oh)
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
What's that? Who's drivin'?
Where we goin'? Who knows?
Hi, we've come to take you home, ooh
How many people do you think I am?
Pretend I am somebody else
You can pretend I'm a millionaire, a millionaire washin' his hands
Rattle the bones, dreams that stick out
A medical chart on the wall
Soft violins, hands touch your throat
Everyone wants to explode!
Now when your hands get dirty
Nobody knows you at all
Don't have a window to slip out of
Lights on, nobody home
Click, click, see ya later
Beta beta, no time to rest
Pika pika, risky business
All that blood'll never cover that mess
Let's go!
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
So soft, hard feelings
No tricks, let's go
Hi, we've come to take you home
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi
Hi
Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi

Luckily it's mostly eating the rotten parts.

[@ofwgkta_dmnd6992]

Is it me or does he sound like zz top in this song

[@AvatarKnownAsNathanielPeters]

It’s you 😂

[@JamesPatrick-cf7vd]

I can hear it. Sounds almost like Billy Gibbons/ Dusty Hill singing a Sly & the Family Stone joint.
Maybe throw in a little Tom Waits and Andy Kaufman, too.

[@firnatine418]

I thought the same thing. Was surprised it was TH.

[@perrydoug214]

No, you're right. it's all of us

[@curlzncrush]

Sounds like the "How How How" part from La Grange, which took the "How How How" part from John Lee Hooker's "Boom Boom".
