Fewer Broken Pieces

[Verse 1] If you make a reference to some trouble that you know Can it help you keep it under control Or should I really reconsider My reasons for going solo David Byrne on Bob Costas puts it pretty well But I put it better [Chorus] I still run the show Don't you forget it So I had to let some go Don't think I don't regret it Because I do and I don't Think I'm better off alone Man I could have made a big sound But I love to let my friends down [Verse 2] Fewer moving parts means fewer broken pieces When every other start requires a brand new thesis One good friend remarks with a rightfully angry Jesus dude! None of us know what to do with you To which I in pride responded I've got news for you None of you have to, cause [Chorus] Man I could have made a big sound But I love to let my good friends down
