They Might Be Giants

They Might Be Giants (sometimes abbreviated as TMBG) is an American alternative band formed in 1982 by John Flansburgh and John Linnell. During TMBG's early years Flansburgh and Linnell were frequently accompanied by a drum machine. In the early 1990s, TMBG became a full band. Currently, the members of TMBG are Flansburgh, Linnell, Marty Beller, Dan Miller, and Danny Weinkauf. They are best known for an unconventional and experimental style of alternative music. Over their career, the group has found success on the modern rock and CMJ charts. More recently they have found success in children's music, and in theme music for several television programs and films. more »

I got rid of my jackets and coats
I threw out all of my pants
I got sick of my stinkin' clothes
I had to get rid of them

I'm knot yet considering replacing them
I'm only glad to be rid of them

[Chorus]
Rest awhile
Rest awhile

I lay out in the sun too long
And burned off all of my skin
I felt so dizzy I got into the car
And got into an accident

Out of the burning wreckage I fell
Wanting only to lay where I fell

[Chorus]
Rest awhile
Rest awhile
Rest awhile!

I became friendly with Ruy Lopez
The author of works on chess
Ruy said you're incorrect
He cut me off and acted mad

He won't even talk to me now
But I don't care 'cause I'm sick of that guy

[Chorus]
And I need to rest a while
Rest a while
