For Alien Girl: Your Racist Friend
Your Racist Friend
By They Might Be Giants
This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your racist friend
I know politics bore you
but I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
You and your racist friend
It was the loveliest party I've ever attended
If anything was broken
I'm sure it can be mended
My head is tired from bobbing and pretending
Listen to some bullet-head
and the madness that he's saying
This is where the party ends
I'll just sit here wondering how you
can stand by your racist friend
Out from the kitchen
to the bedroom to the hallway
Your friend apologizes, he could see it my way
He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking
Can't shake the devil's hand
and say you're only kidding

(it was the most political TMBG's song I could think of. :loveya:

3. We used to have a nightlight with a bird in it in the 1960s
I guess that was a decorating trend then. I would fall asleep watching it as a child.

4. Purple toupee will show the way when summer brings you down.
LOL...

Been to 5 of their shows here in NY, everyone is great.

Everyone's your friend in NY City,
And everything is beautiful when your young and pretty.
The streets are paved with diamonds, there's just so much to see...
But the best thing about NY City is... You and me!

Statue of liberty
Staten Island Ferry
Co-op city
Katzes and
Tiffany's
Central Park
The Brooklyn Bridge
The Empire State where Dylan lived
Coney Island and
Times Square
Rockefeller Center
Wish I were there.

They didn't write that song, but they sure can perform it!
