Lyrics They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants

Lie Still, Little Bottle

Lie still, little bottle shake my shaky hand

Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend

One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song

I know I must investigate, I hope that I can sing along

There's no time for metaphors cried the little pill to me

He said, "Life is a placebo masquerading as a simile"

Well, I knew that pill was lying

Too gregarious, too nice

But as he walked I had to sing this twice

Lie still, little bottle

Ah don't twist, it ain't twistin' time

With every move you make you just

Disintegrate my ever troubled mind

Lie still, little bottle shake my shaky hand

Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend

One pill at the bottom is singin' my favorite song

I know I must investigate, I hope that I can sing along

Lie still, little bottle

Lie still

Lie still, little bottle

Lie still

Lie still, lie still
