Artist/Band: They Might Be Giants
Lyrics for Song: We Want A Rock
Lyrics for Album: Flood [1990]



Where was I? I forgot

The point that I was making

I said if I was smart that I would

Save up for a piece of string

And a rock to wind the string around



Everybody wants a rock

To wind a piece of string around

Everybody wants a rock

To wind a piece of string around



Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn the playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

A rock to wind a string around

But everybody wants a rock

To wind a piece of string around



Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn the playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

A rock to wind a string around

But everybody wants a rock

To wind a piece of string around



If I were a carpenter I'd

Hammer on my piglet, I'd

Collect the seven dollars and I'd

Buy a big prosthetic forehead

And wear it on my real head



Everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads

Everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads



Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn the playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

Prosthetic foreheads on their heads

But everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads



Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn the foreheads down

They want to stop the ones who want

A rock to wind a string around

But everybody wants a rock

To wind a piece of string around
