nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
if you ask us how we want it we'll say man to man
when you go to kiss our cheeks we're gonna put out our hands because
all night we've been talking to liars
and it's all right, just not in the style of tigers
and if you ask us what we're doin we'll
"it doesn't matter to you"
all you need to know is we love to see the crowd move
so turn it up
it really isn't loud enough
when we say when we know you think it's too much
so what?
nanny nany, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
it's just a joke man, just an interview
so what?
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
you'll never get it, i guess this shit is too new
now lets synchronize our movements till they're super sick
we got high hats and loud claps in every mix
we're like boys, just ask her, dicks done by C.P. Caster
hey look out you're still in slip mode!
thanks but now i'm in batch capture
and if you ask us why we're laughing we'll say
"it doesn't matter to you"
all you need to know is we love to see the crowd move
so turn it up
it really sn't loud enough
when we say when we know you think too much
so what?
nanny nanny..
heaphones and velcro and pictures of mars
new mics and dirt bikes and candy bars
bowties and snkeaers while making beats
hard drives and handbooks and hotel sheets
so what?
it doesn't matter to you...
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
I do it every night
she does it in her man suit
so what?
nanny nanny, nanny nanny boo boo
so what?
we never said it but you know we alwaus wanted to
so what?

    ahh, i love it too. i think it's about the whole concept of feminism; being a strong woman & not worrying about what men think. such a good message.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
