They Might Be Giants

Thermostat

When the hands that operate the motor lose control of the lever

When the mind of its own in the wheel puts two and two together

When the indicator says you're out of oil should you continue driving anyway?

There's a thermostat that regulates the temperature

That might not be reliable

That should be disconnected

Turn it up, turn it down

Turn it up when the cold brings you down

When the heat bothers you turn it down

Turn it up, turn it down

As I was just saying

As I was just saying

As I was just telling you a minute ago

I was just talking and someone interrupted

Or was it a loud explosion?

Or is the thermostat engulfed in flames

Or is it just me?

Turn it up, turn it down

Turn it up when the cold brings you down

When the heat bothers you turn it down

Turn it up, turn it down

As I was just saying

As I was just saying

As I was just saying

Turn it up, turn it down

Turn it up when the cold brings you down

When the heat bothers you turn it down

Turn it up, turn it down

Turn it up, turn it down

Turn it up when the cold brings you down

When the heat bothers you turn it down

Turn it up, turn it down
