They Might Be Giants Memo to Human Resources lyrics

I'll be in the back and I don't need the help
I'm good here in the back, I'm good all by myself
I'm busy taking stock of all the things that I've forgot
(Five, four, three, two)
And making mental notes of just exactly where I lost the plot
(Two, two, two, two)

I stuck around too long, feeling sorry for myself
A dis-invited guest, rifles through the bathroom shelf
I'm searching for some disbelief that I can still suspend
(Five, four, three, two)
But never mind the furthermore, the plea is self defense again
(Two, two, two, two)

Then the people came to talk me down
And I got some advice

Then the people came to talk me down
But I don't need advice, I'm down

Later in my car, I considered what you said
I'm good here in my car, I'm good with what you said
And I'd be shouting out to you but I was mighty hoarse
Talk you through the finer points and issues much too small to force

Then the people came to talk me down
And I got some advice
Then the people came to talk me down
But I don't need advice, I'm down
