"I Enjoy Being A Boy"

"I Enjoy Being A Boy"

Oh, yea-yuh

I live in a cucumber castle
On the banks of a cranberry sea
And starfish dance under my drawbridge
And the blackbirds make nest in my tree

I enjoy being a boy in love with you
Ay-ay-ay-ay
I enjoy being a boy in love with you
In love with you, girl
Oh, yea-yuh

I live in a purple plum mansion
In the midst of a strawberry stream
Mellifluous bells ring out softly
From a hill of vanilla fudge cream

I enjoy being a boy in love with you
Ay-ay-ay-ay
I enjoy being a boy in love with you
In love with you, girl
Oh, yea-yuh

La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la

Baby!
I enjoy being a boy in love with you
Ay-ay-ay-ay
I enjoy being a boy in love with you
In love with you, girl
Oh yea-yuh

La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La...

"I Find It Hard To Believe"

"I Find It Hard To Believe"

I find it hard to believe
I find it hard to believe
That I'm embarassed at me
For being upset
Over acting so contemptuously (I find it hard to believe)
Acting so contemptuously (I find it hard to believe)
Acting so contemptuously (that I'm embarassed at me)
Acting so contemptuously (that I'm embarassed at me)
(For being upset over acting so contemptuously)
Acting so contemptuously (acting so contemptuously)
Acting so contemptuously (on me)
I find it hard to believe

"I Haven't Seen You In Forever"

"I Haven't Seen You In Forever"

I haven’t seen you in forever I’m so sad cause I missed you so much
I missed you so much I’m so so sad
I haven’t seen you in forever I’m so sad cause I missed you so much
I missed you so much I’m so so sad
I haven’t seen you in forever I’m so glad we're together again
together again I’m so so glad
I haven’t seen you in forever I’m so annoyed cause I forgot how much you bug me
I forgot how much you bug me
I’m so so annoyed
Go away and leave me alone. No you go away. No you. No you no you.
No you. No you NO YOU. NO YOU.
Since we’ve been apart I see that I cannot live without you
I cannot live without you don’t ever leave me again
I haven’t seen you in forever I’m so glad we're together again
together again I’m so so glad

"I Hope That I Get Old Before I Die"

"I Hope That I Get Old Before I Die"

Sometimes I feel like being wispy
And once in a while I feel like being dry
But we're doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround
So I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Clear off the kitchen table darling
For on the kitchen table I must lie
I'm just tired for my wife just served the banquet of my life
And I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Yeah, I'm a little kid but I just want to dance (yeah yeah yeah)

"I Love You For Psychological Reasons"

"I Love You For Psychological Reasons"

Lately I've taken to vacantly making repetitive movements
Mistakenly seen as improvements
Nearing perfection but wisely electing to shun my reflection
Preferring instead shoe inspection

Cheese and chalk do not talk
But their eyes synchronize with a secret rhythm
Which is a way one could say that
I love you for psychological reasons

Mumbling failure in jail my extremities flail and I wail
Though my arms and my legs to the chair are nailed
Under the table unwilling unable the torture's medieval
The dream is a fable with feeble wings

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse?
They won't say but they feel their feelings
Doesn't subtract from the fact that
I love you for psychological reasons
Reasons I can't really go into now
Reasons we should probably not get into right now

I'm ashamed to admit I'm afraid of assuming the blame
For my lame abnegation of braveness and fame
Brain in a jar in a car in reverse I'm rehearsing
The way I'll replay how to say how to be where you are

Flammable undiagrammable sentiments
Pass between animal beings
Hard to explain but it's plain that
I love you for psychological reasons

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse?
They won't say but they feel their feelings
Doesn't subtract from the fact that
I love you for psychological reasons
Reasons I can't really go into now
Reasons we should probably not get into right now

"I Made A Mess"

"I Made A Mess"

I just made a mess
I don’t know how
I did but now
The whole place is
A wreck

I made a mess
And now I guess
That somehow I
Have got to clean
It up

It’s a catastrophe
From ceiling to floor
From wall to the other wall
And nothing was spared
What wasn’t destroyed was spilled
And what wasn’t spilled was
Melted or scribbled on
From ceiling to floor
From wall to the other wall

I made a mess
I don’t know how
But now I have
A big mess on my hands
I’ll need a ton
Of mops and glue
And soap and towels
And paint and
Power tools

Trying to clean it up
Is making it worse
Whatever I try to fix
Gets even more wrecked
No matter how much I wash
It looks even messier than
It did before
I’m making it worse
By trying to clean it up

I made a mess
And now I guess
That somehow I
Have got to clean
It up

"I Might Be Giants Too"

"I Might Be Giants Too"

They might be giants

This world might go too far
I should be saving those tears
I need to know, so won't you care, do you? (They might be giants)

This world might go too far
I should be saving those tears
I need to know, so won't you care, do you? (They might be giants)

This world might go too far
I should be saving those tears
I need to know, so won't you care, do you? (They might be giants)

I might be giants, too

"I Need Some Lovin'"

"I Need Some Lovin'"

I need some lovin'
Some turtle-dovin'
To dry the ocean
Of tears running down my spine

I need some kissing
But I know you're listening
To all the radios
That tune in to read my mind

They say
Loose lips
Fat cheeks
White teeth
Big hair
Brass bed
With a sign that reads
Nobody rides for free

I need a honey
To spend my money
To call my phone machine
And hang me up at night

I need some lovin'
Some turtle-dovin'
To dry the ocean
Of tears running down my spine

"I Palindrome I"

"I Palindrome I"

Someday mother will die and I'll get the money
Mom leans down and says, "My sentiments exactly,
You son of a bitch"
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
And I am a snake head eating (snake head)
The head on the opposite side (snake head)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)

See that bulletproof dress hanging from the clothesline
See the medical chart with the random zig-zag
Now I'll help it decide
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
And I am a snake head eating (snake head)
The head on the opposite side (snake head)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)

I palindrome I (manonam)

"Son I am able," she said "though you scare me."
"Watch," said I
"Beloved," I said "watch me scare you though." said she,
"Able am I, Son."

See the spring of the grandfather clock unwinding
(Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age)
See the hands of my offspring making windmills
(Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age)
