They Might Be Giants - Snail Shell lyrics
[They Might Be Giants - Snail Shell lyrics]
Sir hand or is it ma'am?
I fell out of my right place again and you
Considered me
And now I'm where a snail has to be
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Friend look what you gave
And how can you ever be repaid?
How may I give you a hand
From the position at your feet where I stand?
So let me thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
I'd like to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Snail shell thank you
Snail shell thank you
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
Or was it something where you acted
When you saw the need
And knew that there would be a
Way the act could be repaid?
And so it may, but for today
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
I fell out of my right place again and you
Considered me
And now I'm where a snail has to be
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Friend look what you gave
And how can you ever be repaid?
How may I give you a hand
From the position at your feet where I stand?
So let me thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
I'd like to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
I need to know because you see
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
Snail shell thank you
Snail shell thank you
Was it something you would do for anybody?
Was it what you'd only do for me?
Or was it something where you acted
When you saw the need
And knew that there would be a
Way the act could be repaid?
And so it may, but for today
I want to thank you for putting
Me back in my snail shell
