They Might Be Giants & Robin Goldwasser
Burnice is a song about a character of the same name from the comic book The Escape Team by David Cowles, who illustrated and directed several TMBG music videos. The band has written several other songs about different characters from the comics.
Oh woe is I, oh woe is I
You call for your friend but she’s not
The thieving deceiving Burnice
You stare through the lamp light
So dim on the camp site
Unlikely precisely Burnice
Beware the destruction she reaps
Don’t stand in the path of her wrath
Yes, it’s a disaster that you can’t think faster
The afflicted evicted Burnice
Oh woe is I, oh woe is I
You can not explain how it was
The restless majestic Burnice
You talk all alone about all that is known
Of the frazzled bedazzled Burnice
Some say your mind’s been transplanted
But you know deep inside you’re enchanted
Your hand is unsteady
Your eyelids rest heavy
Breathtaking heartbreaking Burnice
Oh woe is I, oh woe is I
Burnice was written by John Flansburgh & John Linnell.
