They Might Be Giants — "Returning To The U.S." lyrics
[From the Venue Songs DVD:]
Returning once again to the United States, They Might Be Giants enters the Old Dominion, Charlottesville, Virginia. Here, Thomas Jefferson founded the University Of Virginia, and built his magnificent bat cave, Monticello, where he made sweet love to Sally Hemings. Moved by the aesthetic brilliance and the enlightenment ideals of America's third president, They Might Be Giants creates a song for the Starr Hill Music Hall that is steeped in history.
