The Day We Went to See They Might Be Giants
(Mackay)

The day we went to see They Might Be Giants
I cancelled all my meetings with all my clients
And Calum stayed off school, skipping science
We could have went to the zoo to see some lions
But we didn't
We went to see They Might Be Giants

And we all overheard on the train
A man who had recently reclaimed the left hand side of his brain
Where before he thought he was right-handed
Now he realised he was left-handed

And Stuart got frisked by security
And Mike bought a Polish dictionary
And TMBG played a blinding set
And Corn Mo even played a duet
On Particle Man, Particle Man
He played a duet on Particle Man

What a beautiful day that was
Down in Sauchiehall Street it was
At The Garage
Where the truck sticks out the wall
But there's no damage

(from the album Unhinged - available from The Daily Reckless shop)
