They Might Be Giants - BOOK

Quit the Circus

I'll blink once for no
I'll blink twice for no
You hijack my thoughts
Every single night
You could be more help
But you don't help a lot
Scarecrows only work
In the light

Seeking a purpose
Stuck in the circus
Now I make as much sense
As the car on the lawn
Sinking real low
Until it is gone

I can barely think
Thinking to myself
I'll stay in the car
While you raise some hell
There must be a way
To scare off this old ghost
The one I fear the most
Of the time

All our descendants
Finish the sentence
We're as much use
As the rotary phone
We keep on the floor
To prop the door closed
