| Notes | Tina Weymouth about this song: We jammed to create this song. I played guitar (I don't really know how to playanything, so it was all the same to me, whatever instrument I played); Chris played drums (no jam really got off the ground if anyone else tried to play them); Jerry played a Prophet keyboard, including the left-hand bass line; and David kept going between guitar and another Prophet keyboard, where he went wild witth the pitch modulationwheel and campy piano glissandos. It was great and it was truly naive. |

Lyrics
|
Home is where I want to be Pick me up and turn me round I feel numb - burn with a weak heart (So I) guess I must be having fun The less we say about it the better Make it up as we go along Feet on the ground Head in the sky It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing Hi yo I got plenty of time Hi yo you got light in your eyes And you're standing here beside me I love the passing of time ... |
