lyrics to "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" by They Might Be Giants From the album FLOOD Istanbul was Constantinople Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople Been a long time gone, Constantinople Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night Every gal in Constantinople Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople So if you've a date in Constantinople She'll be waiting in Istanbul Even old New York was once New Amsterdam Why they changed it I can't say People just liked it better that way So take me back to Constantinople No, you can't go back to Constantinople Been a long time gone, Constantinople Why did Constantinople get the works? That's nobody's business but the Turks Istanbul (Istanbul) Istanbul (Istanbul) ------------ By the way, Apocalypse, nice intro. And methinks me likes the timber of yer swagger! Arrrrrgh! I think you'll fit in here just fine. Your age is an asset, because your intelligence and articulate speech will allow you to communicate a unique viewpoint. Welcome to this place. I look forward to your contributions. |
Hey, welcome Apocalypse! You seem like a really cool addition to this site.
|
thanks once again for your welcoming posts, I'm feeling the love!

To sum it all up, I be glad that you all (y'all, perhaps?) seem to have such warm feelings for me. I shant dissapointed you! |
I'm surprised you haven't changed your alternative title to be 'I'm to saxy for this post', that'd be spot on!
|
That would be top notch, but the current one i have is direct, shooking, hilarious, and true.
|
BEN that's one of my favorite TMBG songs. SO classic!
|
Ben, I LOVE YOU! Knowing the name of that song and the band was EXTRA CREDIT on my world history test! *hug*
|
Wow! What incredible luck! Jane, I so glad my long-term affection for a wacky little band called "They Might Be Giants" resulted in you getting extra credit. I wish I could claim I was prescient enough to know you were going to need that info ... the song was just a perfect follow-up to your post. So hurray for synchronicity!
Corporal, yep, that and "Build A Little Bird House In Your Soul" are both from the album FLOOD, and they are my two favorite TMBG songs. And I have to say that you have very good taste! :) |
"... not to put too fine a point on it, say I'm the only bee in your bonnett..."
|
Yep, that's it! It still is my favorite album by them. I also love "Your Racist Friend" and "Whistling In The Dark" and "Twisting" and ...
The best thing about that album is that there are 19 songs on it. If you don't like a song, you don't have to wait long for something different to come on. Oh, and "Minimum Wage" is cute too. I have been flirting with the album APOLLO 18 a bit lately too. By the way, Apocalypse, any fifteen year old who knows his They Might Be Giants references is a friend of mine! |
I'm glad to here it ben!
TMBG is great and all, but seeing how this is a thread about me, talk about me kids! I'm narcissistic! The sad thing is, I really wouldn't be surprised I really was narcissistic, me ego is HUGE! |
Ummm...
You're fucked man! Fuck you! |
You bastard! I will rip off your head, drink all the blood, light it on fire, piss out the fire, crush it, and eat it!
|
Just you wait, asshole.
|
Jesus Christ! you are supremely over critical, lighten up a bit, what, going to report me to Johnny Q Law? I wasn't being serious at any stretch of the imagination, but apparently everything I say seems to offend you.
Once again, I haven't be living with a tribe of hunter gatherers my entire life, I know the law. Now, please don't be such a wench. Look, only 2 days and already someone doesn't like me. |

Enemy count: entire board. thats gotta be a record.
On the account of the fact that I suck at life, will never amount to anything, and accoring to some, I have no genitals, I will be leaving. Seems I'm too offensive, annoying, impulsive, arrogant, and downright mean to be allowed. I don't hate mentally retarded kids, I just think some of them are wasting tax money by being in public schools when it can't help them. Thats all I was trying to say, I guess I was being too general, forgive me. I BID YOU ALL ADIEU! Love, prosper, peace, and no hard feelings? |

By the by, a "drain on society" comment isn't the same as "public schools do not help them" comment. Just so you know. |
