PLANTING SEEDS I'd hand it to time if I knew where the time had gone the connoisseurs were wrong and so was everyone else I know what they're saying cuz that's all they talk about just need to figure out some shit for myself and just because it's obvious doesn't mean it's even true heard it all and I believe that we deserve another point of view we can make it if we try and if we don't it's gonna still be alright cuz our minds are still alive and we can decide what's right make up your mind make up your own mythology afraid of finding me and of defining you take what you want but you won't want it where your at I know this for a fact just because it's so true the first place my mind goes is where I never want it to like where it hurts the most or all the stupid shit I say and do you can make it if you try and if you don' it's gonna still be all right cuz our minds are still alive and we can decide why telling me thousands of times what's next to want just doing their job but you know that's a dirty job can't stand this game still we're bullied to play along when bullies grow up they get meaner yeah they really get it down they think that they get it but they always get it wrong they'll play your favorite song just to sell shit to you I've heard that they'll sell anything and I think they might I think Bill Hicks was right about what they should do and just because you love something doesn't mean it's yours to buy been selling it so long that no one even knows the reason why you've been messing with our minds gettin' rich wasting our time |

| Pavement – Texas Never Whispers Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
Here we go She's on a hidden tableau Just the two for one And the two for one is right Down my alley side I'm just a wasted Behind Don't you know Its an easy thing when it's lost Does it show When the ends are frayed And it's tossed out Lined with silver thread I 've seen your wasted Behind She's so lackidasical Should've been a west coast bride Backseat on electric glide Pilots flying drive by fades Don't hold your breath too long This tunnel is a Texas mile Callow teasing yellow eyes Bleacher date's the second prize Cherry pickin favorites My dash was locked I guess I feel fine The way the river bends The woman's bending over me La da da da da da da (Texas, Texas...) |

| Radiohead – Cuttooth Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| On close listen I hear "skinned alive," but before that I'd always always heard "I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied / I don't know why I feel so scandalized." Not bad, right? | |

| This is amazing. Nice work. By far the closest set of lyrics to the real thing on the page. Awesome. | |
| Modest Mouse – Satellite Skin Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| 'Building Something Out of Nothing' isn't an album. It's a compilation. And 3rd Planet was never a black sheep. And 'We Were Dead...' was a great album, period. There was never any debate about that, was there? | |
| Neko Case – Knock Loud Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I'm pretty sure it's "drink to forgive" which is a play on "drink to forget." | |

| Radiohead – Videotape Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This song makes me think of The Road by Cormac McCarthy -- especially the line "no matter what happens now, you shouldn't be afraid," which is like something the man would say to the boy. Also, the sparseness of the song reminds me of the emptiness of the hellscape the man and the boy travel through. | |

"and skinny skinny people don't like that / when you call on them" - RIGHT "i'm blue and green, green and blue" - WRONG "i'd walk the plank for you / in the dark of the cabin, center row" - WRONG |
