Somehow I didn't even realize they were the same song (possibly from the distinct voice difference) but as soon as I read this it clicked. Very cool take on the song. Almost haunting. |

Last two lines of the first stanza I hear 'Danger lovin' money but it only led to divorce' (Could also be danger, love, and money). The next line is 'Ended up in Abeline'. The next ? I think is 'MIT PHDs, night and day they're testing me'. Somewhere else said that for the last ? it was 'Bowie on the system'. Other than that just a few little wording things here and there but mostly seems right. |

| The Black Keys – I'm Not the One Lyrics

This song reminds me of a past relationship where the girl put her whole hart into it but I was cold and emotionless (harder than marble stone). She did everything she could or that I wanted her to (I said jump and mamma you did) in an attempt to keep the thing going. Once I finally realized what was happening I understood that she thought this was normal, but I knew it wasn't and had to end it because I wasn't the one. She wanted it all (my love) but I gave her none. The fact that the song uses the present participle rather than the past makes me think more of a situation where a girl wants a guy, but he knows he is heartless and cold and not what she needs rather than a past event, but I can still (unfortunately) relate.
Also, in a completely different genre, the song 'Someday You Will Be Loved' by Death Cab for Cutie comes to mind. |
