| mewithoutYou – Dorothy Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
There is no way this is what he says "Then last night I was in Maryland With the singing and praying band Joining in "Satan Get Behind Me" With ironic faithfulness And a man looked almost exactly like Elliot And Satan turned to me, "Have you thought much about that cry?"" I think it's pretty clearly: "Then last night I somewhere near Virginia Rebuking Satan With ironic faithfulness The Satan turned to me, "Have you thought much about that cry?"" |

| Van Der Graaf Generator – Nutter Alert Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Those are the lyrics for Every Bloody Emperor. These are the correct lyrics for this song: It might come in a letter, Darkness falls in a telephone call; I await the unexpected With one ear to the party wall. Is it the pricking of the conscience, Is it the itching of hair shirt, Is it the dictionary definition Of a precipice to skirt? It's the nutter alert. Though this face is familiar Something in it has bred contempt; I never asked for your opinion Or your back-handed compliments. Oh, but here comes that special nonsense All the words out in a spurt, The unhinging of the trolley As the mouth begins to blurt... It's the nutter alert I can see we're in trouble From that glint in the eye you've got; There's no sense to the story, Comprehensively lost, the plot. And how contorted is that logic You so forcefully exert: You're a car crash in the making, Head-on, that's a racing cert. It's the nutter alert, This is the nutter alert. |

| Portugal. The Man – Intermission Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| What do they mean by "la la, la la la"? Is it protest? | |
| Sleater-Kinney – Entertain Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| I think jeffeljefe has hit it when he says this song is a dig at garage rock revival bands a la White Stripes. They're criticizing them because they don't add anything new, they're just stuck in retro mode. Music should be looking forward, not backward. | |
| Jens Lekman – When I Said I Wanted To Be Your Dog Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
Notice the plug to Sipping on the Sweet Nectar. There he says "So I called up Lisa/'Cus she's my only friend". This one is probably addressed to her too, though who knows. I realize there may be no actual Lisa, but even if she doesn't exist in real life, she has a literary existence for all us Jens Lekman fans. |

| The Coral – Careless Hands Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think where you have "Any chance to get the (?) down, " is "Any chance they get they'll put you down, " but I may be wrong. Anyway, I think the meaning is fairly obvious, I agree with the two above posters. Good song. |

| I'm not sure if she really died, but this is cleary a love between two people of different social classes. | |
| The Tears – The Ghost Of You Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| I think the gil simply left him, and the ghost is more of a metaphorical one, like he's trying to erase all of the things that marked her presence in his life, but even then he still can't bring himself to forget her. | |
| Dillinger Four – file under "ADULT URBAN CONTEMPORARY" Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| Er, this is about cops, not white collar workers... | |
