Words fail Buildings tumble The ground opens wide Light beams down from heaven She stands before my eyes
She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror But they're actual size As she drives away
Big men Often tremble As they step aside I thought I was big once She changed my mind
She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me (Size!) I've never known anybody like her She's actual size Nationwide, believe
She's got All the money Money couldn't buy She's got something special That someone left behind
She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me Squares may look distant in her rear view mirror But they're actual size Actual size to her
Her face Hangs in portrait On the post office wall She's stuck in my heart now Where my blood belongs
She's actual size, but she seems much bigger to me (Size!) I've never known anybody like her She's actual size Actual size, believe
My evil twin Bad weather friend He always wants to start when I want to begin It scares me so Like I scare myself With that book of Nostradamus Up upon my shelf
Playing hangman till the morning light Doing donuts on the neighbor's lawn Then sleep all through the day Get up and start again I can hear some sirens somewhere But I don't know why
My evil twin Runs home again Search lights look for an alibi, but I'll be home by then
Here he comes again My evil twin My friends have seen him hiding Underneath my skin
Who cut the arm off the voodoo doll That resembles a Republican president from long ago I'd hate to see you leave 'Cause I have grown so grateful for the Blame you save me from
My twin My twin My twin
(My twin) I know he looks like me (My twin) Hates work like me and walks like me (My twin) He's even got a twin like me
My evil twin Bad weather friend I know some day I'll meet him But I don't know where or when
Glass of milk Standing in between extinction in the cold And explosive radiating growth So the warm blood flows Through the large four-chambered heart Maintaining the very high metabolism rate they have

One of us might lose his hair But you're reminded that it once was there From the embryonic whale to the monkey with no tail So the warm blood flows With the red blood cells lacking nuclei Through the large four-chambered heart Maintaining the very high metabolism rate they have

The statue got me high (high) The statue got me high (high) The monument of granite sent a beam into my eye
The statue made me die (die) The statue made me die (die) It took my hand, it killed me, and it turned me to the sky
The stone, it called to me (and now I see the things the stone has shown to me) A rock that spoke a word (an animated mineral, it can be heard)
And though I once preferred a human being's company They pale before the monolith that towers over me
The statue got me high (high) The statue got me high (high) The truth is where the sculptor's chisel chipped away the lie
The statue made me fry (fry) The statue made me fry (fry) My coat contained a furnace where there used to be a guy
The stone, it called to me (and now I see the things the stone has shown to me) A rock that spoke a word (an animated mineral, it can be heard)
And as the screaming fire engine siren filled the air The evidence had vanished from my charred and smoking chair
And what they found was just a statue standing where the statue got me high And what they found was just a statue standing where the statue got me high
And now it is your turn (your turn to hear the stone and then your turn to burn) The stone, it calls to you (you can't refuse to do the things it tells you to)
And as the screaming fire engine siren fills the air The evidence will vanish from your charred and smoking chair
And what they found was just a statue standing where the statue got me high And what they'll find is just a statue standing where the statue got you high

I don't want to change your mind I don't want to think about your mind They say love is blind I don't think you're blind
You don't want to understand I don't want to shake your father's hand And walk in the sand And act like a man
I get on the bus Ride past our stop And though I'm late I can't get off I just can't bear to tell you some lies And narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes
We'll take back every thing we said Split up all the things and move ahead Forgot how you said We'll split the side off the bed
I get on my bike Ride down our block Ride through the world Through the green lights But when I think of all your advice I narrow my eyes Narrow my eyes
I don't want to change your mind I don't want to think about your mind They say love is blind I don't think you're blind
I get on the bus Ride past our stop And though I'm late I can't get off I just can't bear to tell you some lies And narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes
Now let's toast the sad cold fact Our love's never coming back And we'll race to the bottom of a glass
So narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes Narrow your eyes
Here in the hall of heads You look through the keyhole This is the hall of heads One step through the doorway
Roll out that special head This is our favorite one Please don't try to leave Don't leave the hall of heads
Hide underneath the porch Hide down behind the furnace You can't get away You can't really hide Once you hear the call The song of the hall of heads
You can't run away Your feet won't help you run You can't run away Out of the hall of heads
I lay my head On the railroad track Stare at the sky All painted up Your train is gone, won't be coming back
See the constellation ride across the sky No cigar, no lady on his arm Just a guy made of dots and lines Just a guy made of dots and lines
Two years ago Moved from my town I was looking up Past the city lights But the city lights got in my way
See the constellation ride across the sky No cigar, no lady on his arm Just a guy made of dots and lines Just a guy made of dots and lines
I found my mind On the ground below I was looking down It was looking back I was in the sky, all dressed in black
See the constellation ride across the sky No cigar, no lady on his arm Just a guy made of dots and lines Just a guy made of dots and lines Just a guy made of dots and lines
Can you hear what I see in the sky? Can you hear what I see in the sky? Can you hear what I see in the sky?
If I wasn't shy If I wasn't shy
I'd burn all the uniforms I'd burn all the "Ask Me" buttons I'd burn all the intercoms I'd burn all the time clock cards
If I wasn't shy If I wasn't shy
I'd steal somebody's Cadillac I'd steal anything I lack I'd steal all the microphones From all the masters of ceremony
If I wasn't shy If I wasn't shy
I'd ask you, if you don't mind To kiss you a hundred times
If I wasn't shy If I wasn't shy
I was working all night in my office When a man I had recently killed Called me up from a phone near my building So I looked out the window at him He had the same obsequious manner That was the reason I had him killed So to calm my nerves I sang this song To him, over the phone
Turn around, turn around There's a thing there that can be found Turn around, turn around It's a human skull on the ground Human skull on the ground Turn around
I was out by myself in the graveyard I was doing an interpretive dance When I felt something heavy and pointed Strike me in the back of my neck And then the ghost of my dance instructor Pushed me down into an open grave And as dirt rained down she played a xylophone And sang me this song
Turn around, turn around There's a thing there that can be found Turn around, turn around It's a human skull on the ground Human skull on the ground Turn around
We were waving our arms out the window Of a fast moving passenger train Acting in an irresponsible fashion Until the engineer whose back had been turned And who we thought would find us highly amusing Quickly swiveled his head around And his face which was a paper-white mask of evil Sang us this song
Turn around, (round) turn around (round) There's a thing there that can be found (there's a thing there that can be) Turn around, (found) turn around (round) It's a human skull on the ground (it's a human skull on the) Human skull (ground) on the ground (round) Turn around (turn around, turn around)
Turn around, (round) turn around (round) There's a thing there that can be found (there's a thing there that can be) Turn around, (found) turn around (round) It's a human skull on the ground (it's a human skull on the) Human skull (ground) on the ground (round) Turn around (turn around, turn around)
He's a hypnotist, hypnotist of ladies He's a hypnotist, hypnotist of ladies You're getting sleepy, very sleepy
He's a hypnotist, hypnotist of ladies Never had a pocket watch, never counted backwards You won't remember why you liked him You won't remember why you liked him
Everything is catching, yes Everything is catching on fire (Everything's catching on) Yeah (fire) (Everything is catching on fire)

I found a new friend underneath my pillow
A come on (come on) and wreck my car A come on (come on) and wreck my car A come on (come on) and wreck my car A come on (come on) and wreck my car
Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye? Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?
Please pass the milk, please Please pass the milk, please Please pass the milk, please

Who's knockin' on the wall?
All alone, all alone All by myself
What's that blue thing doing here?
Something grabbed a hold of my hand I didn't know what had my hand But that's when all my troubles began
I don't understand you (I don't understand you) I just don't understand you (I don't understand you) I don't understand the things you say I can't understand a single word
I don't understand you (I don't understand you) I just don't understand you (I don't understand you) I cannot understand you (I don't understand you) I don't understand you (I don't understand you)
I heard a sound I turned around Turned around to find the thing that made the sound
Mysterious whisper Mysterious whisper Mysterious whisper Mysterious whisper
The day that love came to play
I'm having a heart attack I'm having a heart attack I'm having a heart attack I'm having a heart attack
