Excerpt of Lyrics from "Wearing a Raincoat", from They Might Be Giants' new CD: Spine.
Turning to drugs to help you sleepIf you don't like TMBG, there's not much I can do for you, but if you are a fan, stick with this new one. After a less-than-inspired first listen, about half of it is really growing on me, and one tune may be stuck in my head forever. It only leaves while I'm asleep, so I need drugs to help me sleep, and turning to drugs to help you sleep will only lead to sleep...
Will only lead to sleep
And sleeping is a gateway drug to 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
And once they have that attention
They use it to ask for attention
