Atlanta Variety Playhouse by They Might Be Giants Lyrics
The Variety Playhouse is like a hospital
For people who are well
The music and the colored lights
Are like an antiseptic smell
Electric guitars are nurses
That wrap you all in gauze
And the songs we play are the hospital bill
You pay with your applau-au-au-au-ause
Applau-au-au-au-au
