They Might Be Giants
Cave Fish
[Verse 1]
We've exhausted all available arguments
And swum around in circles to the point where you made me doubt myself
I'll admit you had me fooled
I thought you were telepathic
But your stubbornness gave you away
[Chorus 1]
Do you have no eyes?
Do you not see it too?
Do you have no eyes?
If only words could tell you
But there are no words so true, so wise
So forgive me, dear, but have you no eyes?
[Verse 2]
Still I wait for comprehension to dawn upon this night
I would take some satisfaction in saying I was right
If I beat you in a slugfest
Would that suffice to suggest
That you're not the only fish in this cave?
[Chorus 2]
Do you have no eyes?
It hides in plain view
If words could describe
There'd be no need to show you
But there are no words so true, so wise
So forgive me, dear, but have you no eyes?
[Bridge]
If you just look through these lenses
Would you then come to your senses?
Would it all come clear as plain as the sun?
Do you have no eyes at all, not even one?
[Chorus 3]
For there are no words so true, so wise
Barely hidden by a flimsy disguise
Will you see it now or have you no eyes?
