They Might Be Giants - Alphabet Lost and Found lyrics
[They Might Be Giants - Alphabet Lost and Found lyrics]
On this fateful day
In the history of whenever
An epidemic of missing letters
Has swept the land whatever the cause
For the sake of future generations
In the limited time we have been permitted
These stories must be told
There was an apple that lost his 'a'
There was a zebra that lost his 'z'
There was a chauffeur that left
His 'auffer' on the dashboard
Of the car that lost it's 'r'
Well, the car had lost it's 'r' in a pothole
On a street that lost it's 'e'
When the garbage collector with a
Missing 'ector' swept it up
With a broom that lost it's 'oom'
Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together-
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
There was a school that lost it's 'cool'
When they tired to ring the
Bell that had no 'l'
With all the letters gone
The spelling bee was canceled
Science teachers had their hands full
English classes could not be complete
Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together
Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together
Crowds of people, animals
And incomplete words have been
Seen at a previously
Unknown place to be referred to as-
The alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found
How could they survive without their letters)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
In the history of whenever
An epidemic of missing letters
Has swept the land whatever the cause
For the sake of future generations
In the limited time we have been permitted
These stories must be told
There was an apple that lost his 'a'
There was a zebra that lost his 'z'
There was a chauffeur that left
His 'auffer' on the dashboard
Of the car that lost it's 'r'
Well, the car had lost it's 'r' in a pothole
On a street that lost it's 'e'
When the garbage collector with a
Missing 'ector' swept it up
With a broom that lost it's 'oom'
Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together-
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
There was a school that lost it's 'cool'
When they tired to ring the
Bell that had no 'l'
With all the letters gone
The spelling bee was canceled
Science teachers had their hands full

Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together
Where they gonna go without their letters?
How could they survive without their letters?
Where they gonna go to find their letters?
They gonna have to get together
Crowds of people, animals
And incomplete words have been

Unknown place to be referred to as-
The alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet lost and found)
At the alphabet lost and found

How could they survive without their letters)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
At the alphabet lost and found
(alphabet and lost found
They gonna have to get together)
