T Shirt Lyrics


David Byrne T Shirt

[Verse 1]
My beliefs are on this t-shirt
My religion's in my pants
My condition's on this iPhone
Everyone does what they want
I believe in helping others
I will sing my freedom song
I donate to worthy causes
I go along to get along

[Chorus]
Sing my t-shirt, take it off
Dance these shoes until we drop

[Verse 2]
In this land of milk and honey
In this future, bright and gay
Though the shirt is old and saggy
And its words will fade away
Simple things, a line or two
Succinct and clear, a kind of truth
No pretension, no deep intent
There's no mistaking what I meant

[Chorus]
Sing my t-shirt, take it off
Dance these shoes until we drop

[Bridge]
Look at my shirt, my love
It's the only way that I can talk to you
It's faded and torn
Misshapen and worn
But listen to my shirt
'Cause every single pre-shirt word is true

[Chorus]
Sing my t-shirt, take it off
Dance these shoes until we drop

Sing my t-shirt, take it off
Dance these shoes until we drop

Sing my t-shirt, take it off
Dance these shoes until we drop
