A Perfect Circle – A Stranger Lyrics 16 years ago
Yeah it's definitely:

"Move away
You fucking tornardo
I'm better off without you
Tearing my will down"

"Frayed," not "strange".

"Sometimes the ties that bind are frayed"

Alright the album has been out for a while with the lyric sheets so how about you correct these lyrics

The Gaslight Anthem – The '59 Sound Lyrics 17 years ago
These are the correct lyrics, off of the bands myspace:

Well I wonder which song they’re gonna play when we go
I hope it’s something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow
When we float out into the ether, into the everlasting arms
I hope we don’t hear Marley’s chains we forged in life


‘Cause the chains I’ve been hearing now for most of my life
The chains I’ve been hearing now for most of my life


Did you hear the ’59 sound coming through on Grandmama’s radio?
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?


And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass?
See, I was playing a show down the road when your spirit left your
body
And they told me on the front lawn, I’m sorry I couldn’t go
But I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons


And I know ‘cause we were kids and we used to hang
I know ‘cause we were kids and we used to hang


Did you hear the ’59 sound coming through on Grandmama’s radio?
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?


Young boys, young girls
Ain’t supposed to die on a Saturday night.


Did you hear the ’59 sound coming through on Grandmama’s radio?
Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls?
Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over?
Did you hear your favorite song one last time?


Young boys, young girls.

The Gaslight Anthem – Old White Lincoln Lyrics 17 years ago
I can't figure out what he's saying before "stars" either, it's really annoying me

The Gaslight Anthem – Miles Davis and the Cool Lyrics 17 years ago
Yeah it's definately "stone" and not "storm" in both verses. Hence the "toss it upside your window" line that follows in the first one

And I think it's just "I have the years that our youth pass on". Or something like that, but he definately says "I" and not "My", and he definately says "that" instead of "of"

But yeah this song rules. I always interpreted the "down down down from our youth to the ground" line as a death thing though. From being young (our youth) to dying (the ground). Not a climbing out the window thing

Also you left out one line where he says

"You remind Anna, if she asks why.
Tell her it's alright."

Correction Suggestions:

- I'm believe it's "Anna", not "Nana"
- I thought it might have been "side" instead of "sigh" on "the waiter served my coffee with a consolation side", as in a consolation side dish of food or something. But I guess it could be either. Hard to tell

Everything else looks good though, this is one of my favorite songs on the album. Kinda Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts-ish. Awesome

The Gaslight Anthem – Great Expectations Lyrics 17 years ago
charlesbronson: I agree with your other corrections, but I'm pretty sure it's "whole life" and not "old life". I guess they both make sense, and I thought it was "old life" too at first when I tried to transcribe the lyrics, but in later listens I started hearing "whole" instead of "old". Plus I think "whole" makes more sense, since it'd be saying throughout his whole life he's learned that everyone leaves. Or it could be his old life, and he started a new one to forget the old one. But either way this album/band is ridiculously amazing. I don't know how they can put out three consistently good albums. They have not one song in their entire catalog that is skippable.

Yeah it's definately tail lights though, daylights doesn't even make sense

Tim Barry – Idle Idylist Lyrics 17 years ago
Pretty obvious what this song is about, but I wondered if the girl in the second verse is the same girl referred to at the end of Josh Small's song "Say Hello"? where he sings "If New York City's all you need, you don't need me". Since I know Tim and Josh are close friends, it's likely they know this same person. Maybe Josh was the old "beau" before this "guy from Texas"?
