My lady gives birth today,
I run to her room right away,
She smiles with glee then hands her to me,
I look at my newborn and say

Damn that's an ugly baby!
Damn that's an ugly-ass baby!
I'm feeling quite concerned,
My semen must have turned,
Damn that's an ugly baby

This is just what I feared,
Her head is mishappen and weird,
She's skinny like a twig,
At least her nuts are big,
But her hair color doesn't match her beard

Damn that's an ugly baby!
Goddamn that's an ugly-ass baby!
I give the doc a smack and say,
Can't you stuff her back in,
Damn that's an ugly baby

And when she smiles I find,
Shea mcgowan comes to mind,
It makes me want to cry,
When I look into her good eye,
I always wanted kids,
Is it wrong to hope for SIDS?

Then the doctor calls me in,
Mr. lynch, she has a twin...

Damn that's a good lookin baby!
One for two on the good lookin babies,
I almost start to weep,
Now this one we can keep,
Cause that was an ugly ass baby

Damn that's an ugly baby,
Damn that's an ugly ass baby
Damn that's an ugly baby
Damn that's an ugly baby

(I said damn damn damn! I wanna throw that shit in the dumpster)

Well she's got one good tooth and one ear and one eye,
And thank god just one nose but its on her left thigh,
The thought of changing her diaper each day,
Or powdering her ass with that tail in the way,
I think I could get a good price on ebay

I don't want any ugly baby,
I said damn that's an ugly baby,
Damn that's an ugly baby

    It's Shane MacGowan.. one of my favourite artists but he has horrible teeth.

    It was weird that when I saw this on the DVD I laughed hysterically at that line and noticed no one in the crowd got it.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
