Speak My Language - Laurie Anderson

Daddy, Daddy

It was just like you said

Now that the living

Outnumber the dead

Where I come from, it’s a long thin thread

Across an ocean, down a river of red

Now that the living outnumber the dead

I’m one of many

Daddy, Daddy

It was just like you said

Now that the living

Outnumber the dead

Speak my language

Hello.

Hello

Here come the quick

There go the dead

Here they come

Bright red

Speak my language
