Flansburgh: Ladies and gentlemen, it's our special pleasure to introduce direct from Brooklyn, Mr. Jay Sherman-Godfrey from the World Famous Blue Jays on the electric guitar. I got a crush Copy shop clerk But she won't look up at me Don't want to be known as the freak Who just comes around to catch her eye We could be sleeping in the flowers We could sleep all afternoon You'd proclaim that you're an island I'd proclaim that I'm one too Then we float into the harbor With just piers and boats around I declare that I am England You declare that I have drowned I got a ride Home with a drunk guy How ungrateful I must have seemed He showed me how To spin my head round and round We could be sleeping in the flowers We could sleep all afternoon You'd proclaim that you're an island I'd proclaim that I'm one too Then we float into the harbor With just piers and boats around I declare that I am England You declare that I have drowned We could be sleeping in the flowers We could sleep all afternoon You'd proclaim that you're an island I'd proclaim that I'm one too Then we float into the harbor With just piers and boats around I declare that I am England You declare that I have drowned We'll be sleeping in the flowers Tell my boss that I've been fired We'll be sleeping in the flowers Tell my boss that I've been fired We'll be sleeping in the flowers Tell my boss I'm fired We'll be sleeping in the flowers Tell my boss I'm fired Flansburgh: Thank you very much! Linnell: Thank you Jay, Sir. |
