Somebody Lied, and I’m Staring out the Window
I heard it, somebody lied
And I’m staring out the window
Gonna let this thing continue
In its natural time
Round heads, square heads
Get settled in

Talking Heads
Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in New York City in 1975. It consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist David Byrne, drummer Chris Frantz, bassist Tina Weymouth, and guitarist and keyboardist Jerry Harrison. Described as one of the most acclaimed groups of the 1970s and 1980s, Talking Heads helped to pioneer new wave music by combining elements of punk, art rock, funk, and world music with "an anxious yet clean-cut image".

We’re on a ride to nowhere,
come on inside –
Taking that ride to nowhere,
we’ll take that ride
