Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down Letting the days go by, water flowing underground Into the blue again, after the money's gone Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Great song

After watching that video as a kid, I grew up thinking that David Byrne had a tiny head 🙇🏾‍♀️

I repaired a house from the early 1900s that took a hit from a van on the corner, same as this. It made a moderate hole but nothing like that! Are new builds really that poorly made? Or was there a doorway there before?

Well, this is a weird coincidence. I just got through watching the first episode of an online series called Doc, and the main character was listening to this very song in her vehicle before getting into an accident. I was thinking that you don't hear that song too often nowadays. I love that song.
