Ive Tried Things To Do Knee Play 9 - Lyrics by David Byrne


Lyrics

Number 1 try to (walking quickly) be
Number 2 count to ten, smile, count to ten
Number 3 big shoes
Number 4 watching big shoes
Number 5 buying things and spending money
Number 6 counting things
Number 7 inventing facial expressions
Number 8 parking
Number 9 fixing things
Number 10 writing letters
Number 11 studying maps, inventing street names
Number 12 scraping the garden
Number 13 putting the garden in the house
Number 14 pointy things
Number 15 bumpy things
Number 16 broken things
Number 17 finding the bank
Number 18 finding the window
Number 19 writing a book
Number 20 finding the book
Number 21 little houses
Number 22 counting the houses
Number 23 drinking things
Number 24 watching other things
Number 25 putting houses next to bumpy things
Number 26 shaking things next to other things
