Piece Of Dirt Lyrics - They Might Be Giants

Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on today 

Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away 

I would climb the highest mountain just to jump into a fountain 

Or to fly, I'd fly away 

A woman's voice on the radio can convince you you're in love 

A woman's voice on the telephone can convince you you're alone 

But I set my sails so long ago they've revoked my sailor's badge 

Said I should be content and happy on this ink spot where I stand 

Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on today 

Piece of dirt, the whole world has slipped away 

I find myself haunted by a spooky man named me 

I wish that I could jump out of my skin
