I Like Giants Lyrics
Artist(Band):Kimya Dawson
When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road, turn out the lights, get out and look up at the sky
And I do this to remind me that I'm really, really tiny
In the grand scheme of things and sometimes this terrifies me
But it's only really scary cause it makes me feel serene
In a way I never thought I'd be because I've never been
So grounded, and so humbled, and so one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
Rock and roll is fun but if you ever hear someone
Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky
Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
When I saw Geneviève I really liked it when she said
What she said about the giant and the lemmings on the cliff
She said 'I like giants
Especially girl giants
Cause all girls feel too big sometimes
Regardless of their size'
When I go for a drive I like to pull off to the side
Of the road and run and jump into the ocean in my clothes
*I'm smaller than a poppyseed inside a great big bowl
And the ocean is a giant that can swallow me whole
So I swim for all salvation and I swim to save my soul
But my soul is just a whisper trapped inside a tornado
So I flip to my back and I float and I sing
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
I am grounded, I am humbled, I am one with everything
So I talked to Geneviève and almost cried when she said
That the giant on the cliff wished that she was dead
And the lemmings on the cliff wished that they were dead
So the giant told the lemmings why they ought to live instead
When she thought up all those reasons that they ought to live instead
It made her reconsider all the sad thoughts in her head
So thank you Geneviève, cause you take what is in your head
And you make things that are so beautiful and share them with your friends
We all become important when we realize our goal
Should be to figure out our role within the context of the whole
And yeah, rock and roll is fun, but if you ever hear someone
Say you are huge, look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun
Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky
Say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
I am just a speck of dust inside a giant's eye
And I don't wanna make her cry
Cause I like giants

Review about I Like Giants
=D | Reviewer: Sandrea | 3/27/2008This is my daughter and mine favorite song. It's great to have something in common with a thirteen year old.
We always play it in the car when we just drive down on Presque Isle.
It touches a special spot in your heart.
All of Kimya Dawson's music does.
wow | Reviewer: Vanessa | 2/11/2008
I had this song on repeat today during my run. It was early and foggy and peaceful and ohh how this song completed everything.
I found a patch of grass and sat and listened - I've never felt so at peace.
it was terrific I am absolutely in love with Kimya's words.
i love kimya | Reviewer: candice | 1/30/2008
so i'd heard the song 'anyone else but you' a couple years ago during the world soccer championship on a french commercial, and i searched for it for days before i found that the moldy peaches sung it. my friends thought i was wierd for liking something that sounded so raw.
then i started listening to kimya herself, and i have to say, this is the most amazing songs in the world. i know it by heart i have listened to it so much. it's one of the only songs that i know that makes me so happy to be here and makes me appreciate the little things in life.
i guess i should also thank genviève for being an amazing singer/song writer herself, and especially for inspiring kimya to write such an amazing, life-changing song.
yes | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/28/2008

This song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/7/2007
it's absolutely pergfect.
it hits an emotional key.
One of the few songs that will ever touch upon being insignificant in a positive way. Being small compared to teh world, but it's a good thing.
It goes through depression to happy all in the same chords, but it's all perfectly serene.
I love this song.
