Grupo formado en Estados Unidos en 1975 y que debuta en 1977 con el album 77. Perteneciente en sus orígenes a la denominada New Wave, Talking Heads es uno de los grupos que mejor muestra la transición que va del rock a la música electrónica. Incorporan sonidos "art-funk", sintetizadores y bases electrónicas muy potentes, pero siguen ahí el guitarreo rockero, la espontaneidad de las letras y la voz tan underground del compositor y solista David Byrne.

CEm Here we stand like an Adam and an Eve DmG Waterfalls, the Garden of Eden CEm Two fools in love so beautiful and strong DmG The birds in the trees are smiling upon them BEmBEm From the age of the dinosaurs cars have run on gasoline CEmCDm Where, where have they gone? Now, it's nothing but flowers
CGFC There was a factory, now there are mountains and rivers GF You got it, you got it CGFC We caught a rattlesnake, now we've got something for dinner GF You got it, you got it DAGD There was a shopping mall, now it's all covered with flowers AG You got it, you got it DAGD If this is paradise, I wish I had a lawnmower AG You got it, you got it
CEm Years ago I was an angry young man DmG I'd pretend that I was a billboard CEm Standing tall by the side of the road DmG I fell in love with a beautiful highway BEmBEm This used to be real estate, now it's only fields and trees CEmCDm Where, where is the town? Now, it's nothing but flowers DmADmA The highways and cars were sacrificed for agriculture FmCFmG I thought that we'd start all over, but I guess I was wrong
CGFC Once there were parking lots, now it's a peaceful oasis GF You got it, you got it CGFC This was a Pizza Hut, now it's all covered with daisies GF You got it, you got it DAGD I miss the Honky Tonks, Dairy Queens and 7-Elevens AG You got it, you got it DAGD And as things fell apart, nobody payed much attention AG You got it, you got it
DAGD I dream of cherry pies, candy bars and chocolate chip cookies AG You got it, you got it DAGD We used to microwave, now we just eat nuts and berries AG You got it, you got it DAGD This was a discount store, now it's turned into a cornfield AG You got it, you got it DAGD Don't leave me stranded here, I can't get used to this lifestyle
