| Song | Words Are Like |
| Artist | They Might Be Giants |
| Album | Idlewild: A Compilation |
| Words are like | |
| The middle class | |
| A drinking glass | |
| A mask | |
| Words are like | |
| A Spanish town | |
| A wedding gown | |
| A crown | |
| Words are like | |
| A happy dream | |
| A racing team | |
| A wooden beam | |
| A seam | |
| Words are like | |
| A rusty nail | |
| A minor scale | |
| A snail | |
| Words are like | |
| A postcard stamp | |
| A highway ramp | |
| A cramp | |
| Words are like | |
| Kaleidoscopes | |
| The taste of soap | |
| A billy goat | |
| A coat | |
| Words are like | |
| A teenage star | |
| A prison guard | |
| A faded scar | |
| A car |
