The 11th track off TMBG’s first, self-titled album, “She’s An Angel” is about falling in love.
One interpretation is the standard, romantic-comedy, head-over-heels type of love that is so common in popular music. Another (more fun) interpretation is to take the lyrics literally and assume that this...
I met someone at the dog show
She was holding my left arm
But everyone was acting normal
So I tried to look nonchalant
We both said, "I really love you"
The Shriners loaned us cars
We raced up and down the sidewalk
Twenty thousand million times
[Pre-Chorus]
Why did they send her over anyone else?
How should I react?
These things happen to other people
They don't happen at all, in fact
[Chorus]
When you're following an angel
Does it mean you have to throw your body off a building?
Somewhere they're meeting on a pinhead
Calling you an angel, calling you the nicest things
I heard they had a space program
When they sing you can't hear, there's no air
Sometimes I think I kind of like that and
Other times I think I'm already there
Gonna ask for my admission
Gonna speak to the man in charge
The secretary says he's on another line
Can I hold for a long, long time?
I found out she's an angel
I don't think she knows I know
I'm worried that something might happen to me
If anyone ever finds out
[Pre-Chorus]
Why, why did they send her over anyone else?
How should I react?
These things happen to other people
They don't happen at all
[Chorus]
When you're following an angel
Does it mean you have to throw your body off a building?
Somewhere they're meeting on a pinhead
Calling you an angel, calling you the nicest things
I heard they had a space program
When they sing you can't hear, there's no air
Sometimes I think I kind of like that and
Other times I think I'm already there
When you're following an angel
Does it mean you have to throw your body off a building?
Somewhere they're meeting on a pinhead
Calling you an angel, calling you the nicest things
