Don't You Agree? Lyrics

(David Byrne - Don't You Agree?)

With my heart and with my skin
From town to town and back again
With my skin and with my soul
How each one smiles when he's alone

And here we are—convention center
Traveled so far—crossed many rivers
No time to rest—no time to sleep
Keep movin' on—my tired feet

Sometimes we need a hero
Can't make it on our own
Sometimes you need a strongman
When things are out of control

Don't you agree? Agree with me
Don't you agree? Don't you agree?
Don't you agree? Agree with me
Don't you agree? Don't you agree?

Who needs a chair? Whose roof has leaks?
Their children's names, what each one needs
Got my people ev'rywhere
The bellboys and the operators

Now, who stood up to the Japanese?
Who cares about the Philippines?
He'll build a house—I'll decorate
I'm telling all you delegates

Don't you agree? Agree with me
Don't you agree? Don't you agree?
Don't you agree? Agree with me
Don't you agree? Don't you agree?

Sometimes we need a hero
Can't make it on our own
Sometimes you need a strongman
When things are out of control
