They Might Be Giants : Birdhouse in Your Soul

Birdhouse in Your Soul
(3.06Mb)

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


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


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


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


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


There's a picture opposite me

Of my primitive ancestry

Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free

Though I respect that a lot

I'd be fired if that were my job After killing Jason off and countless screaming Argonauts

Bluebird of friendliness

Like guardian angels it's always near


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)


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


Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)

Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)

Make a little birdhouse in your soul (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


Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch (and while you're at it)

Who watches over you (keep the nightlight on inside the)

Make a little birdhouse in your soul (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
