This is not a David Byrne song, it is a Captain Beefheart song titled `Well`.
David Byrne had performed it live
Light floats down day river on uh red raft o` blood
Night blocks out d` heaven like uh big black shiny bug
Its hard soft shell shinin` white in one spot well
It`s hard place dat I`m livin` but I`m doin` well well
The white ice horse melted like uh spot uh silver well
Its mane went last then disappeared the tail
My life ran thru my veins
Whistlin` hollow well
I froze in solid motion well well
I heard the ocean swarmin` body well well
I heard the beetle clickin` well
I sensed the thickest silence scream
Then I begin t` dream
My mind cracked like custard
Ran red until it sealed
Turn t` wooden `n rolled like uh wheel well well
Thick black felt birds uh flyin`
With capes of solid chrome
With feathers of solid chrome
`n beaks of solid bone
`n bleach the air around them
White `n cold well well
Till it showed in pain
The hollow cane clicked like ever after
Its shadow vanished shinin` silence
Well well
