Lyrics They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants

I Love You For Psychological Reasons

Lately I've taken to vacantly making repetitive movements

Mistakenly seen as improvements

Nearing perfection but wisely electing to shun my reflection

Preferring instead shoe inspection

Cheese and chalk do not talk

But their eyes synchronize with a secret rhythm

Which is a way one could say that

I love you for psychological reasons

Mumbling failure in jail my extremities flail and I wail

Though my arms and my legs to the chair are nailed

Under the table unwilling unable the torture's medieval

The dream is a fable with feeble wings

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse?

They won't say but they feel their feelings

Doesn't subtract from the fact that

I love you for psychological reasons

Reasons I can't really go into now

Reasons we should probably not get into right now

I'm ashamed to admit I'm afraid of assuming the blame

For my lame abnegation of braveness and fame

Brain in a jar in a car in reverse I'm rehearsing

The way I'll replay how to say how to be where you are

Flammable undiagrammable sentiments

Pass between animal beings

Hard to explain but it's plain that

I love you for psychological reasons

Why does the mouse share the house with the louse?

They won't say but they feel their feelings

Doesn't subtract from the fact that

I love you for psychological reasons

Reasons I can't really go into now

Reasons we should probably not get into right now
