| Song | Lie Still, Little Bottle |
| Artist | They Might Be Giants |
| Album | Then: The Earlier Years |
| 作词 : They Might Be Giants | |
| Vocal:John Flansburgh | |
| Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand | |
| Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend | |
| One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song | |
| I know I must investigate | |
| I hope that I can sing along | |
| There's no time for metaphors cried the little pill to me | |
| He said, 'Life is a placebo masquerading as a simile'* | |
| Well, I knew that pill was lying | |
| Too gregarious, too nice | |
| But as he walked I had to sing this twice | |
| Lie still, little bottle | |
| Don't twist, it ain't twistin' time | |
| With every move you make you just disintegrate my ever-troubled mind | |
| Lie still, little bottle, and shake my shaky hand | |
| Black coffee's not enough for me, I need a better friend | |
| One pill at the bottom is singing my favorite song | |
| I know I must investigate | |
| I hope that I can sing along | |
| Lie still, little bottle | |
| Lie still | |
| Lie still, little bottle | |
| Lie still | |
| Lie still | |
| Lie still | |
| Notes | |
| *The Frank O'Toole demo version: 'I need to get some shuteye, I wish that you could let me be.' | |
