They Might Be Giants Birdhouse In Your Soul

Tekst piosenki

[Bridge]
I’m your only friend
I’m not your only friend
But I’m a little
Glowing friend
But really I’m not
Actually your friend
But I am

[Chorus]
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I’m the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

[Verse 1]
I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
It’s a simple message and I’m
Leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary
One note spelled l-i-t-e
My story’s infinite
Like the Longines Symphonette
It doesn’t rest

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
There’s a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores
And kept the beaches ship wreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I’d be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off
And countless screaming Argonauts
Blue bird of friendliness
Like guardian angels it’s always near

[Chorus 2]
Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I’m the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
And while you’re at it
Keep the nightlight on inside
The birdhouse in your soul
