They Might Be Giants (Vagabond Joy cover)

Songo

In the early 1980s, THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS received an unlabeled cassette tape of this mysterious song which they later misattributed to Deep Blue Something (of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" fame). According to John Flansburgh: "You know, when you're in a rock band, you get a lot of interesting tapes in the mail, but this is by far the most interesting one we've ever gotten. Not really, but, it's got our name in it—it's kind of strange." For decades, this mythical song has only barely existed in the form of old fan-made bootleg recordings. Until now.

And somewhere under the sun We will find the days to come You already kiss a broken sky They might be giants This world might go too far I should be saving the tears I need an ocean to get to you I might be giant, too Poor mother earth Her pain is deep (She's going to die) The giants know Her heart is sweet (She's under a sky) Who knows how long for her? And somewhere under the sun Now it doesn't seem so far I'm further from your heart They might be giants This world might go too far I should be saving the tears I need an ocean to get to you I might be giant, too I left the light on I turned the screws I changed the channel, now I can't find you I paint by numbers I catch disease I want to be bigger now So I can be free I know, I know They might be giants I know, I know What did you find Inside the grave? Bones lain with silence Lost in their place You search, I close my eyes And hearts beat under the earth Every echo ends a tear You carry summer's last rose in your heart They might be giants This world might go too far I should be saving the tears I need an ocean to get to you They might be giants This world might go too far I should be saving the tears I need an ocean to get to you They might be giants This world might go too far I should be saving the tears I need an ocean to get to you I might be giant, too
