| Liars – There's Always Room on the Broom Lyrics | 20 years ago |
|
These lyrics are quite innacurate. Here's a closer version: May the 1st, Made sandwiches and wrapped them up. Time to grab a broom, oh what a moon. Took a sip, Then found ourselves on Brocken Cliff. Dance for years, On Devil's tears. They disappear. I alone. Spiderwebs, from my leg to my head. Dragon's egg, in the cavern. Samurai, in the book's end. Donkey's cry, for the water Back fum(?) beast meow... I say you're gonna get it in a second, (meow) on my word gonna put it on the dog and you'll win it. (meow) You'll learn it from the wolves, and he'll make it with a cat, and they'll wanna understand so they kill it. (meow) In summer, won't we wanna be in school with everyone? (meow) Somehow we're ordinary until we get more damage done. meow... meow.... meow..... meow...... I say you're gonna get it in a second, (meow) on my word and I'll put it on the dog and you'll win it. (meow) You'll learn it from the wolves, and he'll make it with a cat, and they'll wanna understand so they kill it. (meow) In summer, won't we wanna be in school with everyone? (meow) Somehow we're ordinary until we get more damage done. meow... Note that the Liars did considerable research into the area of witchcraft before and during the making of this record. In particular, they were inspired by the myth and mystery surrounding the witches of Brocken, which have also inspired many fairy tales. My speculation is that this song is particularly devoted to the story of Brocken Mountain and a desire to make a trip there. If anyone has any idea about what the real lyric in place of "back fum" is, don't be shy to post it. |

| Deerhoof – Apple Bomb Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| Here's the gist of what got left out: I wouldn't place too much weight on the Adam and Eve; the Christian story of creation here is used only as a rhetorical device. To give structure to the use of numbers, without giving too much away: #1) Speaker, #2) Mother ("Make a mother"), #3) first "tree" ("Marry me lucky tree"), #4) final "tree" ("To find me number four"). Hope that's helpful....GREAT post, TeN! | |

| Xiu Xiu – Support Our Troops OH! (Black Angels OH!) Lyrics | 21 years ago |
| This, structurally, is a beautiful song. I know it's difficult to think of it as song, but really listen to it, knowing everything was put into it intentionally (notice how when the "noisy" parts come in, it happens in rhythm). Listen to the little textures and voices of the song, because that's what makes it music, not just a spoken track set to noise. The words in this song approach irrelevance. The only coagulating factor is that the words are about a single, identifiable subject. Tristax! has the right idea...the words support the music, not vice versa. This song is very revealing as to Jamie's influences. It reminisced of the Microphones (another great noise pop band), as well as the greatest, first, and most influential noise band of them all, the Velvet Underground (listen to The Black Angel's Death Song - OBVIOUS reference). | |
