Subject: Lyr Add: THE DAY (They Might Be Giants)
THE DAY
(John Flansburgh/John Linnell)

The day Marvin Gaye and Phil Ochs got married
The trees all waved their giant arms
And happiness bled from every street corner
And biplanes bombed with fluffy pillows

The day Marvin Gaye and Phil Ochs got married
The trees all waved their giant arms
And happiness bled from every street corner
And biplanes bombed with fluffy pillows

Notes: Not one of my favourites, and I certainly don't purport to understand it. Featured on the They might Be Giants album by the same name, released on Bar/None records (AHAON 002) in 1986. Was rereleased on Restless Records in 1993.
