Paroles de The Mesopotamians

We've been driving around From one end of this town to the other and back But no one's ever seen us (No one's ever seen us) Driving our Econoline van (And no one's ever heard of our band) And no one's ever heard of our band We're the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh Then they wouldn't understand a word we say, So we'll scratch it all down into the clay Half believing there will sometime come a day Someone gives a damn Maybe when the concrete has crumbled to sand We're the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh The Mesopotam-ish sun is beating down And making cracks in the ground But there's nowhere else to stand In Mesopotamia, (No one's ever seen us) The kingdom where we secretly reign (And no one's ever heard of our band) The land where we invisibly rule As the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh This is my last stick of gum I'm going to cut it up so everybody else gets some Except for Ashurbanipal who says my haircut makes me look like a Mohenjo-daroan Hey, Ashurbanipal, I'm a Mesopotamian Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh We're the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh "Hey, man, I thought that you were dead I thought you crashed your car" "No, man, I've been right here this whole time playing bass guitar For the Mesopotamians" We're the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh We're the Mesopotamians Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal, and Gilgamesh
