David Byrne - Make Believe Mambo lyrics

rate me

It was a pretty picture

It almost made me cry

He's got big imagination

It's better than real life

He can be a macho man

And now he's a game show host

Well one minute hilarious comedian

Now he's an undercover cop

Say

Oh - let the poor boy dream

Oh - livin' make-believe

So how can we be strangers

He's got no personality

It's just a clever imitation

Of the people on tv

A line for every situation

He's learnin' trivia and tricks

Havin' sex and eatin' cereal

Wearin' jeans and smokin' cigarettes now

Oh - let the poor boy dream

Oh - livin' make-believe

Oh - let the poor boy dream

Oh - livin' make-believe

I can be you and you can be me

In my mundotodo el mundo

Everyone's happy and everyone's free

Todo mundomundo mambo

Here in my mundo where nothing is wrong

Todo mundoin my mundo

I'm a lady and you are a man

Mundo mambotodo el mundo

Oh - let the poor boy dream

Oh - livin' make-believe

In my mundotodo mundo

Mundo mamboin my mundo

Todo el mundomundo mambo

Mundo mambotodo mundo

Oh - let the poor boy dream

Oh - livin' make-believe

Mundo mambotodo el mundo

In my mundotodo mundo

Todo el mundomundo mambo

In my mundomundo mambo
