"I Palindrome I" is an EP from They Might Be Giants. The title song also appears on "Apollo 18" (1992), released in 1992 by Elektra Records.

The "I Palindrome I" track itself contains visual, musical, word letter and conceptual (such as an ouroboros) palindromes in its lyrics.

The bridge may itself be a crab canon, with the bass rising through the scale as the melody descends, forming a (partial) musical palindrome.
