[Verse 1]
We've been driving around
From one end of this town to the other and back
But no one's ever seen us driving our Econoline van
And no one's ever heard of our band
[Chorus]
We're the Mesopotamians:
Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal
And Gilgamesh
[Verse 2]
And they wouldn't understand a word we say
So we'll scratch it all down into the clay
Half believing there will sometime come a day
Someone gives a damn
Maybe when the concrete has crumbled to sand
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
The Mesopotamish sun is beating down
And making cracks in the ground
But there's nowhere else to stand
In Mesopotamia, no one's ever seen us
The kingdom where we secretly reign
(And no one's ever heard of our band)
The land where we invisibly rule
We've been driving around
From one end of this town to the other and back
But no one's ever seen us driving our Econoline van
And no one's ever heard of our band
[Chorus]
We're the Mesopotamians:
Sargon, Hammurabi, Ashurbanipal
And Gilgamesh
[Verse 2]
And they wouldn't understand a word we say
So we'll scratch it all down into the clay
Half believing there will sometime come a day
Someone gives a damn
Maybe when the concrete has crumbled to sand
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
The Mesopotamish sun is beating down
And making cracks in the ground
But there's nowhere else to stand
In Mesopotamia, no one's ever seen us
The kingdom where we secretly reign
(And no one's ever heard of our band)
The land where we invisibly rule
