Getting Naked With Thomas Eakins


Running naked, down the state highway
Running naked, in the middle of the day
Running naked like a tom cat's behind
Running naked but the cat
don't seem to mind



Give me your heart
I'll give you mine first
Give me your time
& I'll give you my trust
& we're buck naked now



Like when we were born
When will we find out?
& why does it take so long?
& we're buck naked now



& we're buck naked now
& we're buck naked now
In the eyes of the Lord





Running naked like the
day when I was born
We're all naked in the land
where I come from
I'm a long long way from
New York City now
We're all naked
if you turn us inside out


& we're buck naked now
We ain't got no clothes
Bare assed for sure
In the eyes of God





Naked in my heart
Naked in my soul
Well, how, how does it feel?
Does anybody know?

Well we're naked inside
You're naked too
Well there's nothing to fear
& there's nothing we can do



Well we're buck naked now
Buck naked now
Well we're buck naked now
In the eyes of the Lord.

Naked



David Bryrne
