Talking Heads - Tentative Decisions Lyrics

Talking Heads Lyrics

"Tentative Decisions"

Now that I can release my tensions
Let me make clear my best intentions
Girls ask, "Can I define decision?"
Boys ask, "Can I describe their function?"

Oh the boys want to talk
Would like to talk about those problems
And the girls say they're concerned
(That they are)
Concerned with decisiveness
And it's a hard logic to follow
And the girls get lost
And the boys say they're concerned
(That they are)
Concerned with decisiveness

(I wanna talk) I wanna talk as much as I want
(I'm gonna give) I'm gonna give the problem to you
(I wanna talk) I wanna talk as much as I want
(I'm gonna give) I'm gonna give the problem to you

Decide, decide, make up your mind
Decide, decide, I told you what to say
Confuse, confuse, describe what I found
Confuse, confuse, I told you what to say

Oh the girls still want to talk
Would like to talk about those problems
And the boys say they're concerned
(That they are)
Concerned with decisiveness
And it's a hard logic I know
And the girls get lost
And the boys say they're concerned
(That they are)
Concerned with decisiveness

(I wanna talk) I wanna talk as much as I want
(I'm gonna give) I'm gonna give the problem to you
(I wanna talk) I wanna talk as much as I want
(I'm gonna give) I'm gonna give the problem to you

Decide, decide, make up your mind
Decide, decide, I told you what to say
Confuse, confuse, describe what I found
Confuse, confuse, I told you what to say
