Lyrics They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants

They'll Need a Crane

Love sees love's happiness

But happiness can't see that love is sad

That love is sad

Sadness is hanging there

To show love somewhere something needs a change

They need a change

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To take the house he built for her apart

To make it break it's gonna take

A metal ball hung from a chain

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To pick the broken ruins up again

To mend her heart, to help him start

To see a world apart from pain

Lad's gal is all he has

Gal's gladness hangs upon the love of lad

The love of lad

Some things gal says to lad aren't meant as bad

But cause a little pain

They cause him pain

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To take the house he built for her apart

To make it break, it's gonna take

A metal ball hung from a chain

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To pick the broken ruins up again

To mend her heart, to help him start

To see a world apart from pain

Don't call me at work again, no no, the boss still hates me

I'm just tired and I don't love you anymore

And there's a restaurant, we should check out

Where the other nightmare people like to go

I mean nice people, baby wait

I didn't mean to say nightmare

Lad looks at other gals

Gal thinks Jim Beam is handsomer than lad

He isn't bad

Call off the wedding band

Nobody wants to hear that one again

Play that again

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To take the house he built for her apart

To make it break, it's gonna take

A metal ball hung from a chain

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

To pick the broken ruins up again

To mend her heart, to help him start

To see a world apart from pain

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

They'll need a crane, they'll need a crane

They'll need a crane
