They Might Be Giants - Piece of Dirt lyrics
[They Might Be Giants - Piece of Dirt lyrics]
That is all I'm standing on today
Piece of dirt
The whole world has slipped away
I would climb the highest mountain just
To jump into a fountain
Or to fly, I'd fly away
A woman's voice on the radio can
Convince you you're in love
A woman's voice on the telephone
Can convince you you're alone
But, I set my sails so long
Ago they've revoked my sailor's badge
Said I should be content and happy on
This ink spot where I stand
Piece of dirt
That is all I'm standing on today
Piece of dirt
The whole world has slipped away
I find myself haunted by a
Spooky man named me
I wish that I could jump out of my skin
