Andrew Bird

Get out your measuring cups
And we'll play a new game
Come to the front of the class
And we'll measure your brain
We'll give you a complex and we'll give it a name
Get out your measuring cups
And we'll play a new game
Can't have the cream
When the crop and the cream are the same
Liquid or gas no more than the glass will contain
When you talk about the hand of glory
A tale that's rather grim and gory
Is it just another children's story that's been de-clawed?
When the tales of brothers
Grimm and Gorey have been outlawed
I think they're gonna make you start over
You don't want to start over
Put your backpack on your shoulder
