David Byrne - Everybody's Coming To My House Lyrics






I wish I was a camera
I wish I was a postcard
I welcome you to my house
You didn't have to go far
A house and a garden
There are, there's plants and trees
Make a, a closer inspection
If you get, get down on your knees

Now everybody's coming to my house
And I'm never gonna  be alone
And everybody's coming to my house
And they're never gonna go back home

I'm pointing and describing
And I can be your guide
The skin is just a roadmap
The view is very nice
Imagine looking at a picture
Imagine driving in a car
Imagine rolling down the window
Imagine opening the door

Everybody's coming to my house
Everybody's coming to my house
I'm never gonna be alone
And they're never gonna go back home

We're only tourists in this life
Only tourists but the view is nice
And we're never gonna go back home
No we're never gonna go back home (all right)
We're only tourists in this life
Only tourists but the view is nice

Now everybody's coming to my house
And I'm never gonna be alone
And everybody's coming to my house
And they're never gonna go back home

Everybody's coming to my house
Everybody's coming to my house
I'm never gonna be alone
And I'm never gonna go back home

David Byrne Everybody's Coming To My House Comments
  1. K.... G....

    On my way.

  2. P.... R....

    David Byrne , what an artist, so intriguing, like bowie, constant;y evolving with such a unique voice, maybe eno getting involved was the worst thing that happened,,,, talking heads ‘77 was their best album

  3. J.... N....

    Such an incredibly cool and psychedelically beautiful piece. Thank you for making it.

  4. i.... t....

    The theme for holiday visitors. Gonna play this before Thanksgiving dinner. This and "Alice's Restaurant Masacree"

  5. m.... ....

    This sounds like a song I would make up while driving home in my car, knowing the in-laws are coming to stay.

  6. G.... W....

    This fucking song plays every day at my god damn work place, and YouTube has the NERVE TO RECOMMEND IT TO ME. I fucking hate it, the background tune to parts of it is good, but I fucking hate it, thank you and goodnight
    IM ON BREAK AND IT FUCKING CAME ON AGAIN, KILL ME

  7. C.... D....

    On the weekends when i wait for someone to come and visit me,they never do,i play this song and dance with my cat.

  8. m.... t....

    no one is coming to mine david

  9. d.... l....

    "im pointing and describing"

    yeah you are!

  10. A.... t....

    Not my favorite song

  11. S.... N....

    Gaybar?

  12. s.... ....

    Same as it ever was.

  13. S.... ....

    *nobody:*
    *David fucking Byrne: I WISH I WAS A C A M E R A*

  14. X.... R....

    Typical Pull & Bear song.

  15. C.... D....

    A lot of Great Curves here 😄

  16. W.... Q....

    If they ever do a jukebox musical adaptation of the Darren Aronofsky film mother!, this song should be the showstopper.

  17. A.... F....

    Wish i was there on election night. Never felt such despair for something bigger than myself ending like then. Death tob the city on the hill in a unmarked grave.

  18. A.... A....

    mans crazy

  19. s.... 1....

    I'd love to visit Byrne's house. Sure would be interesting.

  20. D.... ....

    song sounds much better live

  21. G.... C....

    Apprêt the catherine wheel de cet auteur messe pour le temps présent de Béjart et on fini avec pacebo jazz belge écrit par marc moulin

  22. r.... g....

    I can't handle how hilarious are comments. Anything that I might comment is already here. lmao

  23. M.... ....

    What if his house is at the bottom of the ocean?

  24. R.... C....

    That verse though. Every line ending with the high-pitched Yelp makes me want to punch him.

  25. I.... H....

    Thought he said "I wish I was a pop star"

  26. C.... G....

    There are no big secrets, don't believe what you red, we've got great big bodys, we've got great big HEADS!
    Making flippy floppy trying to do my best

  27. K.... ....

    He was so great to see live back in november here in australia , he is just pure awesome 😎🤟👏👏👏

  28. A.... A....

    I dont understand how this has less likes than some clickbait videos or other crap...is there no one left who cares for good music?

  29. J.... K....

    Imagine looking at a picture.
    Imagine driving in a car.
    Imagine that the shoulders are legs in this video.

  30. i.... t....

    I find the lyrics terrifying. Love the song, but my God! Everyone coming to my house and they're never gonna go back home? No, get out ! I didn't invite everyone.

  31. A.... G....

    Everybody's coming to my house, then we're burning it down, cause this must be the place where slippery people pull up the roots buried in moon rocks

  32. R.... K....

    This song is awesome!

  33. c.... ....

    Now I'm pointing and describing.

  34. a.... s....

    magical genius david byrne!

  35. K.... H....

    The shoulders 💯

  36. C.... C....

    Love this! You've inspired my 4 year old: https://youtu.be/-4S77yz3Wao

  37. I.... I....

    I love this song!!

  38. D.... B....

    That name is mine

    D.... B....

    Huh? You where named after him?

  39. a.... s....

    Precious Moon dog commemoration moment... again...try H'art Songs and The German years also....what about Avo Paert?

  40. D.... ....

    A little Philip Glass influence at the beginning

    D.... ....

    moon dog

  41. z.... ....

    This song beats me strongly. I love the time listening this album's songs.

  42. M.... ....

    I work at a burrito place and the radio station we use plays this song like every 20 minutes. I swear if I hear it one more time I'm going to hurt someone, probably myself

  43. v.... f....

    Arff, B52's.. Thanx !

  44. B.... G....

    Pure Fire

  45. M.... R....

    How did i manage to get jump scared by the last few second of squiggly lines?

  46. J.... D....

    Purely Talking heads

  47. P.... ....

    <3 :-)

  48. n.... h....

    Thanks David <3

  49. T.... V....

    *Stravagante ed eccezionale ! CIAO !!!*

  50. P.... 6....

    once again, a beauty

  51. M.... ....

    Honestly, as much as I enjoy this song, I can't get past the incredibly GarageBand-sounding instrumentals throughout the whole thing... sounds super artificial

  52. H.... ....

    This bitch slaps my gwahd!

  53. J.... J....

    glad he made it out of his yawning-singing phase :D

  54. I.... B....

    ....here comes the twister...

  55. G.... H....

    To the Austin couple drawn to the bright white blazer at Byrne's Houston concert (White Oak Music Hall, Apr 28), I solved the Pink Floyd contradiction.

  56. s.... ....

    y'all's comments.. i was not ready😂

  57. H.... W....

    I miss Talking Heads. I liked their music.

  58. s.... ....

    David is among those precious men who must be protected at all costs; Dr. Phil, Bill Nye.

  59. R.... F....

    Wasn't blown away at first...then I saw it live. Hoo boy!

  60. N.... Y....

    But what if we want to slip inside his funky house?

  61. c.... c....

    People start arriving at his house, but David is still hoovering like, "You can't see it till it's finished!"

  62. M.... C....

  63. G.... ....

    His house has great curves

  64. M.... S....

    Byrne = musical genius

  65. t.... S....

    You and apparently everyone else is coming to his beautiful house, you chat up his beautiful wife and internally, say to yourself, "Well, how did I get here?".

  66. B.... 6....

    I've heard better vocalists at a dive bar's karaoke night.

    R.... D....
