Come out to show them... Like open the bruise up, and let some of the blues blood come out to show them Come out to show them, come out to show them, come out to show them... Music (bad weed right there; hit that shit) Listening to music while stoned is a whole new world (toe up man) Most cannabis consumers report it second only to sex And grass will change your musical habits, for the better {*"America's most blunted!"*} {"Soon as he start sleepin, catchin you off guard"} {"If you'll all gather closer at the phonograph"} Where Quas at? {"Yo!"} Doom, you got the trees? {"America's most blunted!"} [Doom] Quas, when he really hit scar mode Never will he boost loose Phillies with the barcode Or take a whole carload on a wasted trip Or slit White Owl laced tip from tip with yip Some rather baggies other like they cracks in vials Catch a tag, roll a bag of shwag in a Black'n'Mild 'Si twist Optimo, just the raw leaf part The list top gold, bust before beef start At the Stop'n'Go Mart, actin like a spirit host done it {"America's most blunted!"} Yeah, yo Doom nominated for the best rolled L's And they wondered how he dealt with stress so well Wild guess? You could say he stay sedated Some say buddha'd, some say faded Someday pray that he will grow a foreign barn full Recent research show it's not so darn harmful (true) Sometimes you might need to detox It can help you with your rhyme flow and your beatbox Off spite to your surprise Turn a Newport Light to a joint right before your eyes Tear a page out the good book, hear it how you want it {"America's most blunted!"} {"Comin kinda stupid from the station"} {"blunted"} {"Amazing loops, *huh*, loops, *who*.."} {"blunted"} {*"The-th-the-best, the-th-best, the-the-the, the best in your perimeter"*} Yo I can't find that nigga Metal Face nowhere (oh alright) {"America's most blunted!"} [Quas] Doom!

| Modest Mouse – Parting of the Sensory Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Oh, and I'm not here to argue whether or not they've sold out, or how much they've "partially sold out", but this album (along with a majority of "Good News") just doesn't do it for me and will be their first recording not to make it into my repertoire. IMO Dennis Herring shouldn't produce Modest Mouse albums. | |
| Modest Mouse – Parting of the Sensory Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| Carbon is the element of life. Everything living is composed of carbon. When you die, you decompose and return to the earth as basic elements. Eventually someone (whether a plant, or animal) is going to "steal your carbon" either being composed of your remains, or by using it as a resource. | |
| Modest Mouse – Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
You could go around trying to please everyone but the only one you can really MAKE happy is yourself. But not in a selfish way. It's like if you really love someone and you do everything for them and try to get them to notice how much you care about them, but they're just not into you like that. It sucks but it's life. Life sucks. Hah. |

| Oh and it totally doesn't belong here but thanks to my ex for introducing me to these guys. And to think, I used to make fun of your music. I told you there was a little emo faggot inside of me :) | |
| Umbrellas – Vampires Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"this APPLE in my hand, I just took one bite" It's bugging the shit out of me what he says in the second line of the chorus. "Didn't want to be eaten" all blended together maybe? Sounds like eaten at the end at least. As far as meaning I think it's along the lines of someone cheating or possibly a one night stand. "I've been conditioned to sell myself" definately is pointing towards a cheap hook up of some type. Or maybe it's even about the recording industry? iono I'll look closer some other time. Great song though, awesome bass lick, great beat, just overall great music-scape |

| Umbrellas – The City Lights Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
It's about a relationship in which one person wants to leave and the other wants to hold on. Something went wrong or something's not right. He's not sleeping because it's bothering so he walks the streets for clarity. He's trying to suppress the dreams because he's hiding from the sadness that comes with realizing that they're not going to come true. He's doing it out of fear of hurting the other person or because he just doesn't want to be sad not because he's over it. He wonders if the other party has ever felt like this or been in this position. He feels the sadness/anger swelling inside of him and just wishes that things could go back to how they were. He's trying to be positive and is hopeful that they come back to him or maybe that it's going to be ok regardless. Maybe the other developed feelings with someone else or just doesn't want the commitment right now. And he knows it's hard for the other and just wants the other to be happy and wishes them good luck. It's the exact opposite then how you want to feel. It takes a strong person to not take the easy way out. Which is being sad/angry and writing the other out of your life and not trying to salvage a friendship or at least to make a clean break. He really loves the person and couldn't do that to them or himself. But it still hurts or bothers him because he wants more than anything to be together and will wait indefinately until the other comes around. |

| Bob Dylan – The Times They Are A-Changin' Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| And Sam, maybe it's true that they're written without an intentional meaning but that doesn't mean that people can't find meaning in them. That's part of the reason this site is here. | |
| Bob Dylan – The Times They Are A-Changin' Lyrics | 18 years ago |

| The Get Up Kids – Don't Hate Me Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
by beachgirl4433 on 04-28-2002 @ 05:06:09 AM: If he really loved her, he wouldn't leave......... Not true. This just happened to me. I'm Amy, but I'm a guy. And sometimes things get so hard with someone that you love so much. You don't want to hurt them so you drag it out and it gets worse and worse. Then one day someone comes and sweeps them off their feet, or they realize that they need to find themself or they just can't do it any longer and the decision is made to split. He still loves her and deep in his heart he doesn't want to do this to her but it's necessary. Hopefully "Amy" can be strong and not blame herself and move on without voiding him out of her life. But that takes a lot of strength and maturity to accomplish. And hopefully by the time he comes around "Amy" is still there. And right now I'm "Amy", and I'm trying to be strong. Because she was the most beautiful thing to ever bless my eyes. And I would wait an eternity for her to return. |

| Elliott Smith – Alameda Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Oh Elliot, I wish you were still here. So many great singer/songwriters out there, but you were different somehow. Your soft fragile voice caressing the sweet music. You're words were so honest and real. They speak to so many people. I cried when I first heard the news. I cried like I knew you. Thanks for leaving us with so many beautiful pieces to remember you by. Your love, pain, fears, everything will live on in your music forever. Thank you. | |
| Bob Marley and the Wailers – Waiting In Vain Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Also perfect for someone who has had their love put on haitus until the other can find themself. When the time is right I will play this for her. Thanks Bob. Also on a side note, which is ironically a little more on topic, if it was about his mistress why would his eyes be filled with burning tears? I guess that you can have strong feelings for a mistress but it just seems to me that it fits better being addressed to his wife. Or maybe not? |
|
| Lauryn Hill – I Gotta Find Peace Of Mind Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Holy shit. I haven't ever felt this way just from a song. Maybe because it's parrelling my life so much, but I've never cried so hard in my life. | |
| Eels – Last Time We Spoke Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Pretty apparent about what it's about. The feeling of being let go, but not being able to let go. Unfortunately I know exactly how that feels right now. | |
| Cat Power – I Don't Blame You Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Wow, I honestly never looked at it that way. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention because it's pretty apparent, though it doesn't spell it out for you (which I like). Anyway, nothing really to add except my appreciation for this song. Thanks Chan! | |

| Remarkable. | |
| Sparklehorse – Little Fat Baby Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
I feel like this song is, for lack of a better explanation, about looking back on one's life. Obviously it wasn't a particularly easy life (getting pulled through dirt, glass and brush against their will; laughed at by city folk for being different presumably) but the narrator is realizing he/she was once a innocent "little fat baby" without a care or a worry, and now they've grown up and are now bruised, possibly cold and bitter about the hardships they've encountered. Saving wisdom teeth I assume has to do with growning older, as far as burning the xmas tree, I don't have a clue (is this tradition somewhere?). Who knows what Linkous was expressing, maybe he's not even really sure. All I'm sure of is my love of this song, and Sparklehorse in general. There's something about beautiful melancholy music that strikes a chord with my heart and I'll be damned if I can help that. |

I'm pretty sure the last line is "I wanna be a horse full of fire that'll never tame." Then again, I could be wrong. Love this song. Sparklehorse fuckin rocks. |

| Ying Yang Twins – Wait Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| All you people bashing rap saying it's ALL immoral, offensive and ignorant are just as wrong as the people you're looking down on. I agree that this song (as well as most of mainstream rap) is rubbish but there are plenty of artists out there that are put out intelligent and meaningful material (so called conscious emcees). I'm not saying that everyone should embrace it but you're in the wrong to say that all rap is trash like this. Just because it doesn't get radio play doesn't mean it does not exist. OPEN YOUR MIND. | |
| Hoobastank – The Reason Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I don't usually do this but, quite possibly one of the worst songs ever. It hurts my ears and kills the day anytime I hear it. And this band changes like the wind, catering to the flavor of the week. Good thing they only play it on bad radio stations. Now that I think about it what radio station is good these days? | |
| Louis Armstrong – Gone Fishin' Lyrics | 18 years ago |

| Ying Yang Twins – Wait Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Yeah, I laughed the first time I heard this song. But I can't believe people are getting paid for this nonsense. It's like something you would make with your boys as a joke; not something you would go out and purchase. Oh, and these guys can't perform live. They sound even worse than on the album cuts. AGODDAMN!!! | |
| The Beatles – Yellow Submarine Lyrics | 18 years ago |

It's just a fun song. Not meant to be taken seriously (especially as seriously as some of yous). "would* lol" Also: closely; when; dialated; he's. |

| Johnny Cash – Hurt (Nine Inch Nails cover) Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Geez, whatever happened to lyrics being open for interpertation? Isn't that what this site was created for? Unfortunately most of you just can't fathom the idea that what might mean one thing to you could have an entirely different meaning from someone else. Even if it's not what the songwriter intended to imply doesn't mean it's wrong. Oh and I'm not here to take sides, both men are talented songwriters/performers and both deserve credit for all of their work. Fighting who's version is 'better' is ridiculous, everyone has their own opinion and if you can't come to terms with that than you should go live in solitude or on an island where everyone is exactly the same. | |
| The Mars Volta – L'Via L'Viaquez Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| Cygnus: I find what you wrote to be highly hypocritical. I'm in no way defending what anyone else said but how are you any better with that comment? Anyways, thanks to everyone that took the time to translate the spanish to english for us crackers. And to everyone that added what the song meant to them. | |
| Modest Mouse – Tundra/Desert Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Thanks to Cowboy Dan and CheatedJinx's friend Michelle for the background lyrics! You tha (wo)men! This is my g/fs alltime fav Modest Mouse song. | |
| Modest Mouse – Truckers Atlas Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Yeah, Truckers don't have autopilots. Anyhow, greatest drumline ev-ar. Wish they played it the last time I saw them (though it seems they have two drummers/percussionists now to make up for Jeremiah's absence). Oh well, 2 outta 3 ain't bad. | |
