Lyrics They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants

Figure Eight

Round, can you go around?

And if you can turn around without falling down

You can skate in a figure eight

If you can turn, if you can go straight

Turn left, go straight, turn right, straight again

And then do it over, repeat forever

That's all you need to know

That's the way you skate in a figure eight

If you can grab a circle in your hands

And twist it, that's an eight

If it weren't for the Zamboni

You would never leave the ice

And I think I know the reason why

You never take a break

The sign that means forever

Is a sideways number eight

Turn left, go straight, turn right, straight again

And then do it over, repeat forever

That's all you need to know

That's the way you skate in a figure eight

And if you twist the number zero

You will get the number eight

Turn left, go straight, turn right, straight again

And then do it over, repeat forever

That's all you need to know

That's the way you skate in a figure eight

If you can grab a circle in your hands

And twist it, that's an eight

(If you can grab a circle in your hands)

(And twist it, that's an eight)

Twist the number zero

You will get the number eight
