They Might Be Giants — Sometimes a Lonely Way

Not everyone you've abandoned Is still standing by Not everyone who is lost is Wondering why Sometimes a lonely way Taking your name down from the Jumbotron Find a new place to stay And a new home for the trumpeter swan We can see it now, the scratches On the back of the door We can see it now, no mistaking What you're better for Sometimes a lonely way Taken alive in an uncivil war Trophies and glass displays Rehearsals for third place, forever more Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah Bah bah bah bah, bah bah bah Not everyone you've abandoned Is still standing by Not everyone who is lost is Wondering why Sometimes a lonely way Taking your name down from the Jumbotron Find a new place to stay And a new home for the trumpeter swan
