Yeasayer – Ambling Alp Lyrics 15 years ago
i think the correct words on the first verse are:

now kid i know i haven't been a perfect man
and i've avoided doing things i know i can
but if i've learned one thing to tattoo on my arm or burn into my thumb
it would be that....

Yeasayer – Love Me Girl Lyrics 15 years ago
this might be just what i hear, but i think the words are:

what is she covering up?
what is she lying about?
she's hesitating.
and she's using slow words, i know
but she's moving fast.
why is this happening now?
why does this happen to me
all the time?

don't give up on me now
(love) [<-- or (now)?]
and i won't give up on you now
(love) [<-- or (now)?]

squeeze me
til i can't breathe
and let's just lie here
(?)
because neither one of us can know
how long this love will last
so stay up in bed with me
stay up and play with me
all day and night

don't give up on me now
(love)
and i won't give up on you now
(love)
i gotta wait for the baby
love me girl

nothing is wrong
what are you scared of?

squeeze me
til i can't breathe
and let's just lie here
(?)
because neither one of us can know
how long this love will last
so stay up in bed with me
stay up and play with me
all day and night

don't give up on me now
(love)
and i won't give up on you now
(love)
i gotta wait for the baby
love me girl

love me girl

i LOVE the justin timberlake/timbaland sound on this song. i think it's a really interesting bridge between the weirder spaced-out sound of 'all hour cymbals' and the poppier direction of the new stuff.

any thoughts on the lyrics?

i've listened to it obsessively asking the same question, and i think cookiemonstar is right. he's definitely saying that during the breakdown when he repeats it.

i think the words in the second verse are:

i'll take your gold plate
and silver metal
heat it up, melt it down to a soup and help you to swallow

Annuals – Sore Lyrics 17 years ago
oops. i meant:

brightest of days
you look three states away
squint through the sun
as you leave with the sparrows at dawn

coldest of nights
i sit shaking in fright
spit through my teeth
let it roll down my chin and then i stare

Annuals – Sore Lyrics 17 years ago
the lyrics above i believe are mostly right. after many close listenings and watching live performances of the song, i think these are the correct words:

sorest of times
got your thoughts on my mind
the faster they come
the less i remember

brightest of days
you look three states away
spit through my teeth
let it roll down my chin and then i stare

if i ever let you out of bed
without a catch to the center of your head
well then i never deserved you from the start
and you can let loose the warmth of my heart

if i never let you out of my door
you'd never broke your leg in the park
if i never picked you out, this i'm sure
you'd be home with a family keeping warm

sorest of times
i can still find your light
if i'm down on my fate
if i'm hollow, i don't care

if i never let you out of my door
you'd never broke your leg in the park
if i never picked you out, this i'm sure
you'd be home with a family keeping warm

if i never let you out of my door
you'd never broke your leg in the park
if i never picked you out, this i'm sure
you'd be home with a family keeping warm

if i never let you out of my door
you'd never broke your leg in the park
if i never picked you out, this i'm sure
you'd be home with a family keeping warm

keeping warm
keeping warm
keeping warm
