I got a new They Might Be Giants album, "They Got Lost". The album wasn't as good as some other albums by them, but the lyrics from this song were making me smile:


I’m a human head
And my best friend is also a head
I don’t really need my best friend

Now my friend is gone
And I’m only a head by myself
I find I don’t need my whole head

Now I’m just the top of a head
Just the scalp and the hair
I don’t like the scalp just the hair

What do I really need?
Best friend also a head
Just the head
Just a scalp
Hair

Friend
No
Head
No
Scalp
No
Hair

I am only one human hair
With no scalp for a home
All I need’s the top of a head
Now all I am is just a scalp
I don’t have any head
I’d be glad if I had a head

Now I have a head
Look at me
I’m a fine floating head
Where is my friend the other head?
