They Might Be Giants - Words Are Like lyrics

'Words Are Like'

Words are like

The middle class

A drinking glass

A mask

Words are like

A Spanish town

A wedding gown

A crown

Words are like

A happy dream

A racing team

A wooden beam

A seam

Words are like

A rusty nail

A minor scale

A snail

Words are like

A postcard stamp

A highway ramp

A cramp

Words are like

Kaleidoscopes

The taste of soap

A billy goat

A coat

Words are like

A teenage star

A prison guard

A faded scar

A car
