The Shins – The Celibate Life Lyrics 14 years ago
"because of your struggle to make them
their taste for your past time is fading
remember the girls in the middle
are always the first to fall off"

They way this bit is sung really gets me good.

Modest Mouse – Dog Paddle Lyrics 16 years ago
I love this song, very much underrated..

That said, I've heard it quite a few times through high quality headphones, and it seems clear without argument to me what is said during the 'burger' line.

...
We don't like what we just saw but
(We don't like what we just saw but)
I can't swim so I dog paddle
(I can't swim so I dog paddle)
I can't swim so I dog paddle
I eat a bunch of burgers
(I can't swim so I dog paddle)
Gives me a side-ache feels like murder
I can't swim so I dog paddle
I can't swim so I dog paddle
...

The line makes sense too, since it's pretty reasonable that someone could grub upon too many burgers while high and feel sick later.

The line is the same second time it comes up

...
I'm down on the water
(I'm down on the water)
I don't know so I don't bother
(We don't got no meat to swallow)
Looking out the window of my dad's old Chevy
(I can't swim so I dog paddle)
Eats a lot of gas because it's that more heavy
(I can't swim so I dog paddle)
We're all down on the county line
(I eat a bunch of burgers)
We're all screaming Carolina
(Gives me a side-ache feels like murder)
(mumbling)
I can't swim so I dog paddle
(mumbling)
I can't swim so I dog paddle
...

The Shins – Girl On The Wing Lyrics 16 years ago
I thought this orginally, listen on headphones though.. there are two vocal tracks at certain points (including that line) so it throws you off.
