Lyrics for Song: Faces and names 
Lyrics for Album: Songs For Drella [1990]
  
               
  4422>Faces and names, I wish they were the same
  faces and names only cause trouble for me
  Faces and names
 
 
  If we all looked the same and we all had the same name
  I wouldn't be jealous of you or you jealous of me
  Faces and names
 
 
  I always fall in love with someone who looks
  the way I wish that I could be
  I'm always staring at someone who hurts
  and the one they hurt is me
 
 
  Faces and names, to me they're all the same
  if I looked like you and you looked like me
  There'd be less trouble you see
 
 
  Faces and names, I wish they'd go away
  I'd disappear into that wall and never talk
  Talk, not talk
 
 
  I wish I was a robot or a machine
  without a feeling or a thought
  People who want to meet the name I have
  are always disappointed when they meet me
 
 
  Faces and names, I wish they were the same
  faces and names only cause problems for me
  Faces and names
 
 
  I'd rather be a hole in the wall
  looking out on the other side
  I'd rather look and listen, listen and not talk
  To faces and names
 
 
  If I had a breakdown when I was a kid
  I lost my hair when I was young
  If you dress older when you're not
  as your really age you look the same
 
 
  If we all looked the same, we wouldn't play these games
  me dressing for you and you dressing for me
  Undressing for me
 
 
  Faces and names, if they all were the same
  you wouldn't be jealous of me or me jealous of you
  Me jealous of you, me jealous of you
 
 
  Your face and your name
  your face and your name
  Faces and names
  faces and names
