They Might Be Giants - Withered Hope lyrics

Very sad sack is a sad bag Very very sad very sad sack Withered hope says she is his friend To the end but she doesn't like very sad sack Today withered hope saw the very sad sack And she tried not to meet his eyes And he cut out a paper heart Pinned it to his arm Gave her everything he was holding in his head This is what he said: Withered hope I'm in love with you Want to live with you withered hope Are you going to say to me this can never be are you going to say to me withered hope Sad sack Sad sack Withered hope says she has a soul mate Living in a city in another state But the soul mate thinks about a picture in a book of a beautiful crook And the picture of the crook in the book Is in love with a brand-new motorbike But the motorbike doesn't like crooks It's obsessed with the very sad sack Sad sack I'm in love with you Want to live with you sad sack Are you going to say to me this can never be are you going to say to me sad sack Sad sack Sad sack
