In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Corazon de diablo siempre me intentas rebajar,
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi.
Corazon de diablo seguiras enganadome,
Con tu falsa sonrisa
why tus canciones de sirena,
Sonriendo enganando, coqueteas conmigo hasta que no hay esperanza,
Respondiendo degradando, de rodillas intento agradarte.
Pero te quiero sin embargo why te deseo piedad,
A mi lado why veras lo que significas para mi.
Corazon de diablo siempre me intentas rebajar,
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi, sobre mi.
Corazon de diablo siempre me intentas rebajar,
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi,sobre mi.
Que harias sin mi,sonriendo,enganando,
Coqueteas conmigo hasta que no hay esperanza.
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi.
Corazon de diablo seguiras enganadome,
Con tu falsa sonrisa
why tus canciones de sirena,
Sonriendo enganando, coqueteas conmigo hasta que no hay esperanza,
Respondiendo degradando, de rodillas intento agradarte.
Pero te quiero sin embargo why te deseo piedad,
A mi lado why veras lo que significas para mi.
Corazon de diablo siempre me intentas rebajar,
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi, sobre mi.
Corazon de diablo siempre me intentas rebajar,
Con las cosas que haces
why las palabras que difundes contra mi,sobre mi.
Que harias sin mi,sonriendo,enganando,
Coqueteas conmigo hasta que no hay esperanza.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
this is spanish cover of a Yardbirds song. For the translation: songmeanings.net/lyric.php
Evil hearted you You always try to put me down With the things you do And words You spread around against me
Evil hearted you You kept Kidding me along With your phoney smile And with Your siren song Smiling, beguiling You lead me on 'til all hope's gone Persuading, degrading On my knees I try to please
But I love you Just the same And I want you To remain By my side And you'll see Just how much you Mean to me
Evil hearted you You always try to put me down With the things you do And words You spread around against me About me What would you Do without me? Smiling, beguiling You lead me on 'til all hope has gone
i love the spanish
thanks for... that... great great pixies song
I was watching the "who the f*** is pete doherty" documentary and there was a scene in which he was playing this song. I think the lyrics were changed though.
i love the double translation. but hey, would i try to 'lower' you? :) It's not the same somehow...
gods, i had an original Yardbirds recording of this!
