Lyrics They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants

Push Back the Hands

You would give up your right arm to go back

To when you had a right arm

You'll need some muscles to move it backward

Push back the hands of time

Broken glass is glittering like diamonds

Can't hear yourself thinking over the sirens

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

You wanna sing to drown out the car horn

Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn

Like a newborn babe

Dawn breaks like a fallen vase

Push back the hands of time

Unwelcome vision of rosy fingers

Push back the hands of time

It wouldn't help you if you'd had any sleep

It wouldn't save you from the mission creep

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Screeching tires but never a collision

Endless day without a sunset provision

Endless day

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

You wanna sing to drown out the car horn

Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn

Like a newborn babe

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time

Push back the hands of time
