Story Behind the Song
This is one of the two songs I recorded during the summer of 2001, the other one being "Around the Way". If you listen to a lot of alternative music from the mid-1990's, you'll find that the lyrics use a lot of simple contradictions, presumably to sound enigmatic. So they would have called this song "The Smallest Giant" or something.
Lyrics
I could fill a classroom with the stories I have told
But none of them would hold your attention
So I sit back and wait for your love to turn to hate
And I show the words around, yes, I show the words around
Like a submarine resurfacing only to return to see
That water's overrated, we don't need it anyway
It carries germs, I caught a bad infection yesterday
I'm better now there's no need to moan and pout
I'm the biggest giant and you're the strongest cow
I've got a great collection of books I've yet to read
And letters that I wrote but never sent
I've got skills to pay the rent and the moral of the story
Is you miss every shot that you don't take
And you eat every cookie that I bake
Cause food is so neglectful vis-a-vis my memory
And it was lame of me to write that note so negligently
Wish I had a dime for every time you looked at me
I'm the biggest giant and you're the tallest tree
You tried to make me be the clown in the dunk tank
Make me play the bass in a funk band
I liked you when your soul was clothed
I thought you knew how goths smoke Cloves
And now I'm leaving, you can have my PSX if you want
And if you need me you can look in one of my old haunts
But you won't find me, cause I'll be in Portland, Oregon
I'm the biggest giant, and you are simply gone
