text:  So, David Byrne, Psycho Killer was the first song that you wrote with drummer Chris Franz and bass player Tina Weymouth. What was the germ of the idea? Was it your idea to write a song about a serial killer? Do you think of him as a serial killer or just a kind of really bad date? Yes. Well, I don't know if he's a serial killer, but yes, somebody who's kind of deranged and is a killer. And it was an experiment to see if I could write a song.
