They Might Be Giants - Skee-ball and Saltwater Taffy lyrics
[They Might Be Giants - Skee-ball and Saltwater Taffy lyrics]
Home is on They Might Be Giants' minds
And now
In their sights but as they head north
They cannot pass up a stop in Asbury Park
New Jersey, where they play skee ball
And eat saltwater taffy that was
Made in 1996 and of
Course, they check in with their old
Friends at the legendary Stone
Pony it was here at this
Landmark musical dungeon by the
Sea where public radio's Garrison Keillor
First somberly rocked America with
Songs like, "Factory's A'Closin' in the
Quaint Fictional Lutheran Town"
And traded white hot rock guitar licks with
Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora it is
This legacy that inspires yet another venue
Song one that shall be played
Home is on They Might Be Giants'
Minds and in their sights as
They head north, they are forced
To stop in Asbury Park
NJ at the legendary Stone
Pony though time has
Slowly healed southern Jersey of the dark
Reign of the dark overlord Bon Jovi
And elves once again frolic on the
Dance Dance Revolution Machines of the
Boardwalk arcades
The Giants still cannot hear their muse until
A lingering malcontent attacks the
Band backstage now
They Might Be Giants has all
The inspiration they need
And now
In their sights but as they head north
They cannot pass up a stop in Asbury Park
New Jersey, where they play skee ball
And eat saltwater taffy that was
Made in 1996 and of
Course, they check in with their old
Friends at the legendary Stone
Pony it was here at this
Landmark musical dungeon by the
Sea where public radio's Garrison Keillor
First somberly rocked America with
Songs like, "Factory's A'Closin' in the
Quaint Fictional Lutheran Town"
And traded white hot rock guitar licks with
Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora it is
This legacy that inspires yet another venue
Song one that shall be played
Home is on They Might Be Giants'
Minds and in their sights as
They head north, they are forced
To stop in Asbury Park
NJ at the legendary Stone
Pony though time has
Slowly healed southern Jersey of the dark
Reign of the dark overlord Bon Jovi
And elves once again frolic on the
Dance Dance Revolution Machines of the
Boardwalk arcades
The Giants still cannot hear their muse until
A lingering malcontent attacks the
Band backstage now
They Might Be Giants has all
The inspiration they need
