We Live in a Dump lyrics
by They Might Be Giants
[Verse 1]
Hangin' out
While the monkeys type away
Waiting in my room all day
[Pre-Chorus]
Why be realistic?
Don't wake me from my dream
I was individualistic
They kicked me off the team
[Chorus]
We live in a dump
Admit it's a dump
Our friends are all nuts
And half of 'em drunks
And if they're not nuts
Then they're retired nuts
And that might be the hardest nut
[Verse 2]
Makin' plans
The kind that go awry
Got a full life-time supply
[Pre-Chorus]
Why be realistic?
Don't wake me from my dream
I was individualistic
They kicked me off the team
[Chorus]
We're living with bats
What's good about that?
I hear they lay eggs
And when the eggs hatch
You gotta believe then
There's related madness
From the lead that's in the sealing wax
We live in a dump
Admit it's a dump
Our friends are all nuts
And half of 'em drunks
And if they're not nuts
Then they're retired nuts
And that might be the hardest nut
We live in a dump
