By: They Might Be Giants
Year: 2004

I'll be in the back, and I don't need the help I'm good here in the back I'm good all by myself I'm busy taking stock of all the things that I've forgot (5, 4, 3, 2) And making mental notes of just exactly where I lost the plot (2, 2, 2, 2)

I stuck around too long feeling sorry for myself A disinvited guest rifles through the bathroom shelf I'm searching for some disbelief that I can still suspend (5, 4, 3, 2) But never mind the furthermore; the plea is self-defense again (2, 2, 2, 2)

Then the people came to talk me down And I got some advice Then the people came to talk me down But I don't need advice, I'm down

Later in my car I considered what you said I'm good here in my car I'm good with what you said And I'd be shouting out to you but I was mighty hoarse Talk you through the finer points and issues much too small to force

Then the people came to talk me down And I got some advice Then the people came to talk me down But I don't need advice, I'm down
