They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants (sometimes abbreviated as TMBG) is an American alternative band formed in 1982 by John Flansburgh and John Linnell. During TMBG's early years Flansburgh and Linnell were frequently accompanied by a drum machine. In the early 1990s, TMBG became a full band. Currently, the members of TMBG are Flansburgh, Linnell, Marty Beller, Dan Miller, and Danny Weinkauf. They are best known for an unconventional and experimental style of alternative music. Over their career, the group has found success on the modern rock and CMJ charts.

No taxi could take you
No trains rolling by
No bicycle shop, No planes in the sky
Planes in the sky

Not a night spent in jail
Parrot on my arm
Not a man of the world, no patch on my eye
Patch on my eye

Dark and metric is my town
Every day and night
Just because you're floating
Doesn't mean you haven't drowned

No spoiler, no wind scoop
No mag wheels in back
No hydraulic shocks, no privacy glass
Privacy glass

Dark and metric is my town
North, east, west, and south
Just because you're smiling
Doesn't mean you haven't drowned
