The Mesopotamians - They Might be Giants

I switch favorite songs so frequently that I thought it was only right to post them here.

Lyrics:

We've been driving around

From one end of this town to the other and back

But no one's ever seen us

(No one's ever seen us)

Driving our Econoline van

(And no one's ever heard of our band)

And no one's ever heard of our band

We're the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

Then they wouldn't understand a word we say

So we'll scratch it all down into the clay

Half believing there will sometime come a day

Someone gives a dang

Maybe when the concrete has crumbled to sand

We're the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

The Mesopotamish sun is beating down

And making cracks in the ground

But there's nowhere else to stand

In Mesopotamia

(No one's ever seen us)

The kingdom where we secretly reign

(And no one's ever heard of our band)

The land where we invisibly rule

As the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

This is my last stick of gum

I'm going to cut it up so everybody else gets some

Except for Ashurbanipal, who says my haircut makes me look like a Mohenjo-Daren

Hey, Ashurbanipal I'm a Mesopotamian

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

We're the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

"Hey, man, I thought that you were dead

I thought you crashed your car"

"No, man, I've been right here this whole time playing bass guitar

For the Mesopotamians"

We're the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh

We're the Mesopotamians

Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
