They Might Be Giants it said something

It just said something
Nobody heard it but me
I wasn't recording
Anyway, why would I be?
It said something new
That wouldn't come out of me
And I don't even dream about that kind of thing
That's not the insane part
The insane part is, first of all, it can speak
Second of all, the thing it said
It's like it read my mind
It just read my mind
Now I have to lay down
Think things over
Everything up is down
It just said something
I was sleeping and then
I was awoken
I'll never sleep again
Excavate the book
Nobody needs to know why
Sell the delusion
Look it in the eye
Speaking in reverse, so the babies can see
Dress them in silver
Set the monkeys free
That's not the insane part
The insane part is, first of all, it can speak
Second of all, the thing it said
It's like it read my mind
It just said something
I was sleeping and then
I was awoken
I'll never sleep again
(It just said something)
It just read my mind
Now I have to lay down
Think things over
Everything up is down
(It just said something)
It just said something
I was sleeping and then
I was awoken
I'll never sleep again
(It just said something)
It just said something
I was sleeping and then
I was awoken
I'll never sleep again
(It just said something)
It just read my mind
Now I have to lay down
Think things over
Everything up is down
(It just said something)
It just said something
I was sleeping and then
I was awoken
I'll never sleep again
(It just said something)
(Set the monkeys free)
