They Might Be Giants - Wearing a Raincoat lyrics
[They Might Be Giants - Wearing a Raincoat lyrics]
Wearing a raincoat is flying
Around in a plane made of a raincoat
But when you think of that
You hurt your mind and you'll need a friend
To talk you down
Needing a friend to talk you down
Is food that comes from a pipe
But when you hate the food
That comes from a pipe
You will turn to drugs to help you sleep
Turning to drugs to help you sleep
Will only lead to sleep
And sleeping is a gateway drug
To being awake, being awake
Being awake again
Being awake is swimming around in a lake
Of the undead and the undead are like
A bunch of friends
That demand constant attention
Demanding constant attention
Will only lead to attention
And once they have your attention
They use it to ask for attention
And once they have that attention
They use it to ask for attention
Wearing a raincoat is flying around
In a yellow rubber airplane
Made out of a raincoat
Yes but when you think of that
You hurt your mind and you'll need your mind
For later on
Needing a mind for later on
Is a friend that comes at a price
But when you hate the friend
That comes at a price
You will play the drums to help you sleep
Around in a plane made of a raincoat
But when you think of that
You hurt your mind and you'll need a friend
To talk you down
Needing a friend to talk you down
Is food that comes from a pipe
But when you hate the food
That comes from a pipe
You will turn to drugs to help you sleep
Turning to drugs to help you sleep
Will only lead to sleep
And sleeping is a gateway drug
To being awake, being awake
Being awake again
Being awake is swimming around in a lake
Of the undead and the undead are like
A bunch of friends
That demand constant attention
Demanding constant attention
Will only lead to attention
And once they have your attention
They use it to ask for attention
And once they have that attention
They use it to ask for attention
Wearing a raincoat is flying around
In a yellow rubber airplane
Made out of a raincoat
Yes but when you think of that
You hurt your mind and you'll need your mind
For later on
Needing a mind for later on
Is a friend that comes at a price
But when you hate the friend
That comes at a price
You will play the drums to help you sleep
