Though he probably could have just included “Psycho Killer” or “Life During Wartime” and called it a day, David Byrne has produced some new music for Alex Gibney’s epic documentary Musk. Teaming with composer Daniel Pemberton, the former Talking Head has debuted “Let Me Sell You A Dream.” The title alone should communicate the general feelings these musicians have toward Elon Musk. But if the title and lyrics (which include phrases like “My daddy used to tell me / tell me I was no good”) don’t drive the point home, there’s no misunderstanding the music video, which features the potential model for Iron Man donning the armor to vaporize the employees at Twitter.
