song name: Birdhouse in Your Soul
artist: They Might Be Giants
year: 1990
run time: 3:20
sung by: John Linnell
Trivia/Info
John Linnell on the song's meaning in a 1994 interview:
We're not really into writing songs with secret meanings or coded messages. I mean, for example, "Birdhouse In Your Soul" is a song about a nightlight. That's it. It's written from the perspective of a nightlight serenading the occupant of its room. The thing is, there are so many syllables in the songs that we have to come up with something to fill the spaces.
Gov sez: This song used to bother and perplex me until I read Linell's easy, straightforward explanation. Like Freud said: "Sometimes shooting a gun into your friend while a woman moans is just shooting a gun into your friend while a woman moans."
Simple, clear, direct.
