They Might Be Giants - We Live In A Dump lyrics

rate me

Hangin' out

While the monkeys type away

Waiting in my room all day

Why be realistic?

Don't wake me from my dream

I was individualistic

They kicked me off the team

We live in a dump

Admit it's a dump

Our friends are all nuts

And half of them drunks

And if they're not nuts

Then they're retired nuts

And that might be the hardest nut

Makin' plans

The kind that go alright

Got a full life-time supply

Why be realistic?

Don't wake me from my dream

I was individualistic

They kicked me off the team

We're living with bats

What's good about that?

I hear they lay eggs

And when the eggs hatch

You gotta believe then

There's related madness

From the lead that's in the sealing wax

We live in a dump

Admit, it's a dump

Our friends are all nuts

And half of them drunks

And if they're not nuts

Then they're retired nuts

And that might be the hardest nut

We live in a dump
