Whistling In The Dark Lyrics

They Might Be Giants
Flood
Whistling In The Dark
A woman came up to me and said
"I'd like to poison your mind
With wrong ideas that appeal To you
Though I am not unkind."
She looked at me, I looked at something
Written across her scalp
And this is what it faintly said
As I tried to call for help:

CHORUS
There's only one thing
That I know how to do well
And I've often been told that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that's be you
Be what you're like
[ They Might Be Giants Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Be like yourself
And so I'm having a wonderful time
But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
There's only one thing that I like
And that is whistling in the dark

A man came up to me and said
"I'd like to change your mind
By hitting with a rock," he said,
"Though I am not unkind."
We laughed at his little joke
and then I merrily walked away
And hit my head on the wall of the jail
Where the two of us live todaay

CHORUS
