lyrics

Two pigs underneath the linens
A skeleton is crawling into bed
Stretch 'em out cuz he taller then the piggies
An alien is living in his head

The sun seems to be where it all begins
But an outsiders see us as the seventh stone in

Big brother is hiding under the table
Whirlwind is a poetic disguise
Dressed in mythological clothing
But no one can cover up the sky

Two pigs underneath the linens
A skeleton is crawling into bed
Stretch 'em out cuz he taller then the piggies
An alien is living in his head

The sun seems to be where it all begins
But an outsiders see us as the seventh stone in

Run mother get back to your baby
Your folklore is an unpleasant surprise
Big brother is still under the table
Cuz no one can cover up the sky
