They Might Be Giants lyrics : "Lie Still, Little Bottle"

Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand
Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend
One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song

I know I must investigate
I hope that I can sing along


There's no time for metaphors cried the little pill to me
He said, "Life is a placebo masquerading as a simile"*
Well, I knew that pill was lying

Too gregarious, too nice
But as he walked I had to sing this twice


Lie still, little bottle
Don't twist, it ain't twistin' time
With every move you make you just disintegrate my ever-troubled mind


Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand
Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend

One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song
I know I must investigate
I hope that I can sing along


Lie still, little bottle
Lie still

Lie still, little bottle
Lie still
Lie still

Lie still
