David Byrne & Ghost Train Orchestra The Avant Garde Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I saw a woman in a leotard
Now I'm not sure how I feel
About the avant garde
Now I like the idea their politics too
But I'm not really sure
If that means that it's good

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna go there, yeah, yeah!
I wanna go there
[Chorus]
And when we go there you will observe
It's a passionate life, it's a head of a curve
It's deceptively weighty, profaundly absurd
Well, it's whatever fits
It's the avant garde
And it doesn't mean shit
It's the avant garde

[Verse 2]
Should I be more likе the avant garde?
Would it be еasy?
Or would it be hard?
For a life that's exciting
If one wants to go far
There's only one place
That's the avant garde [Pre-Chorus]
I wanna go there
I wanna go there
I'll take you with me
The things that we'll see

[Chorus]
Just look arround you will observe
It's a passionate life, it's a head of a curve
It's deceptively weighty, profaundly absurd
Now, it's whatever fits
It's the avant garde
And it doesn't mean shit
It's the avant garde
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna go there
I wanna go there

[Chorus]
And when we go there you will observe
It's a passionate life, it's a head of a curve
It's deceptively weighty, profaundly absurd
Well, it's whatever fits
It's the avant garde
And it doesn't mean shit
It's the avant garde
And it doesn't mean shit
It's the avant garde
