Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : They Might Be Giants
[00:00.00] ★ HomToㄨYeah
[00:01.07] We've been driving around
[00:04.74] From one end of this town to the other and back
[00:11.52] But no one's ever seen us (No one's ever seen us)
[00:15.26] Driving our Econoline van (And no one's ever heard of our band)
[00:18.74] And no one's ever heard of our band
[00:21.06] We're the Mesopotamians
[00:25.02] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[00:30.11] Then they wouldn't understand a word we say,
[00:33.63] So we'll scratch it all down into the clay
[00:37.21] Half believing there will sometime come a day
[00:40.81] Someone gives a damn
[00:43.13] Maybe when the concrete has crumbled to sand
[00:46.76] We're the Mesopotamians
[00:50.71] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[00:57.61] The Mesopotam-ish sun is beating down
[01:03.64] And making cracks in the ground
[01:06.08] But there's nowhere else to stand
[01:10.41] In Mesopotamia, (No one's ever seen us)
[01:14.28] The kingdom where we secretly reign (And no one's ever heard of our band)
[01:17.95] The land where we invisibly rule
[01:19.93] As the Mesopotamians
[01:24.01] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[01:29.04] This is my last stick of gum
[01:30.74] I'm going to cut it up so everybody else gets some
[01:34.75] Except for Ashurbanipal who says my haircut makes me look like a Mohenjo-daroan
[01:42.53] Hey, Ashurbanipal,
[01:44.55] I'm a Mesopotamian
[01:48.24] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[01:55.35] We're the Mesopotamians
[01:59.22] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[02:06.18] "Hey, man, I thought that you were dead
[02:10.52] I thought you crashed your car"
[02:14.10] "No, man, I've been right here this whole time playing bass guitar
[02:22.36] For the Mesopotamians"
[02:24.70] We're the Mesopotamians
[02:30.19] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal
[02:35.56] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[02:42.34] We're the Mesopotamians
[02:46.28] Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
[02:53.12] END
