Number Three (Album Version) - They Might Be Giants (明日巨星)[00:00:00]
There's only two songs in me[00:00:00]
And I just wrote the third[00:00:02]
Don't know[00:00:04]
Where I got the inspiration[00:00:04]
Or how I wrote the words[00:00:06]
Spent my whole life just digging up[00:00:07]
My music's shallow grave[00:00:10]
For the two songs in me[00:00:11]
And the third one I just made[00:00:13]
A rich man once told me[00:00:19]
"Hey life's a funny thing"[00:00:20]
A poor man once told me[00:00:22]
That he can't afford to speak[00:00:24]
Now I'm in the middle like[00:00:26]
A bird without a beak 'cause[00:00:27]
There's just two songs in me[00:00:29]
And I just wrote the third[00:00:31]
Don't know where I got the[00:00:32]
Inspiration or how I wrote the words[00:00:34]
Spent my whole life just digging[00:00:36]
Up my music's shallow grave[00:00:38]
For the two songs in me and[00:00:40]
The third one I just made[00:00:42]
So I went to the President[00:00:47]
And I asked old what's-his-name[00:00:49]
Has he ever gotten writer's block[00:00:51]
Or something like the same[00:00:52]
He just started talking[00:00:54]
Like he was on TV[00:00:56]
"If there's just two songs in ya boy[00:00:57]
Whaddaya want from me "[00:01:00]
So I bought myself some denim pants[00:01:05]
And a silver guitar[00:01:07]
But I politely told the ladies[00:01:08]
"You'll still have to call me Sir[00:01:10]
Because I have to keep my self-respect[00:01:12]
I'll never be a star[00:01:13]
Since there's just two songs in me[00:01:15]
And this is Number Three"[00:01:17]
