They Might Be Giants - A Self Called Nowhere (John Henry)

A Self Called Nowhere


I'm sitting on the curb
By the empty parking lot
Of the store where they let me play the organ
I'm waiting for my ride
But I want to wait inside
Of the store where they let me play the organ

But I'm thinking of a wooden chair
In a room at the top of a stair
And I'm looking down the stairwell
At the vanishing dot
On the map of the spot
Let me take you there
The dotted line
Surrounding the mind
Of a self called nowhere
It's a thing named "it"
In a pit
You can't see it there
The sunken head
That lies in the bed
Of a self called nowhere

Standing in my yard
Where they tore down the garage
To make room for the torn down garage
I'm looking for my car
But I must have sold my car
When I needed to buy an electric organ

But I'm thinking of a wooden chair
In a room at the top of a stair
And I'm looking down the stairwell
At the vanishing dot
On the map of the spot
Let me take you there
The dotted line
Surrounding the mind
Of a self called nowhere
It's a thing named "it"
In a pit
You can't see it there
The sunken head
That lies in the bed
Of a self called nowhere

Nowhere

The vanishing dot
On the map of the spot
Let me take you there
The dotted line
Surrounding the mind
Of a self called nowhere
It's a thing named "it"
In a pit
You can't see it there
The sunken head
That lies in the bed
Of a self called

watching this has been great! three things keep coming back to me, though. 1. my whoo's, as audible as they are, sound like a woman. Not necessarily bad, just an observation. 2. I am an idiot. On our way up to the show, Linnel was coming out to get something. My friend recognized him, and I didn't. So we didn't stop for more that a wave. 3. I should have tried harder to calm those two drunk girls down. The loud one 'crazy lady' had a birthday that night, and had way too much to drink. Ty!
