Piece Of Dirt — They Might Be Giants

Piece of dirt, that is all Im standing on today

Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away

I would climb the highest mountain just to jump into a fountain

Or to fly, Id fly away

A womans voice on the radio can convince you youre in love

A womans voice on the telephone can convince you youre alone

But I set my sails so long ago theyve revoked my sailors badge

Said I should be content and happy on this ink spot where I stand

Piece of dirt, that is all Im standing on today

Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away

I find myself haunted by a spooky man named me

I wish that I could jump out of my skin
