I Fell In Love With a Talking Head - Live at New Century Hall lyrics

[Intro]
The big difference, when he grows up [?] the year 2001, is that he will have, in his own house, not as big as this, but at least a console to which he can talk to his friends and get all the information he needs for his everyday life

[Verse 1]
This time last year, the day that it started
She spoke of love and how in practice it cannot be applied
But a crisis at the housing market
Sat up lovely in her second home in the Scottish countryside
We went out to a meal shе ordered lobster thеrmidor
Broke me down with words about how much she hates a trubadour
After violating the staff, paid and said why can't you understand?
With every piece of hate I spread they pay me twenty grand

[Chorus]
Fell in love with a talking head
Tried not to listen but she made me
Fell in love with a talking head
Said "You'll either love me or hate me"

[Verse 2]
She did a tasteful bit of investigative journalism
About the stupidest family in Britain
But she interviewed the dad for sixty seconds, scribbled down her genius and all in one sitting
She was cool, she didn't care, said what she liked
It was apparent that she didn't like a thing, not even me
She said, "I'm professionally sesquipedalian"
Or whatever, whatever, whatever that means
[Chorus]
I fell in love with a talking head
Tried not to listen but she made me
Fell in love with a talking head
Saying "You'll either love me or hate me"

[Post-Chorus]
Isn't it fitting that I hate you now?
I hate you now?

[Bridge]
She couldn't stop her talking
Her talking got me drinking
In the pleasant arms of alcohol
The spirits got me thinking
Our love is far too hateful
Her genius grows distant
And the world would sure be grateful
If I ended its existance
So I took us in a car
The cliffs were where it led
Now I'm staring at the headstone
Of the loveliest of talking heads

[Chorus]
Fell in love with a talking head
Tried not to listen but she made me
Fell in love with a talking head
Said "You'll either love me or hate me"
[Outro]
Oh, why do I love you now?
I love you now
I love you now
Love you now
