Seen and Not Seen - Talking Heads (传声头乐队)

He would see faces in movies on T V

In magazines and in books

He thought that some of these faces

Might be right for him And

Through the years

By keeing an ideal facial structure fixed in his mind

Or somewhere in the back of his mind

That he might

Byforce of will

Cause his face to approach those of his ideal

Thechange would be very subtle

It might take ten years or so

Gradually his face would change its' shape

A more hooked nose

Wider thinner lips

Beady eyes

A larger forehead

He imagined that this was an ability

He shared with most other

PeopleThey had also meloder

Their faced according to some ideal

Maybe they imagined that their new face would better

Suit their personality

Or maybe they imagined that their

Personality would be forced to change

To fit the new appearance

This is why first impressions are often correct

Although some people might have made mistakes

They may havearrived at an appearance

That bears no relationship to them

They may have picked an ideal

Appearance based on some childish

Whim or momentary impulse

Some may have gotten half-way

There and then changed their minds

He wonders if he too might have made a similar mistake
