The Shins – The Celibate Life Lyrics	13 years ago
ive noticed he tends to sing different words here and there on various live versions and the album. a few of these words still sound wrong to me, at least in respect to the album version

Unknown Mortal Orchestra – Thought Ballune Lyrics	13 years ago
it sounds to me like he's saying "deflate a balloon" not inflate

The Shins – Saint Simon Lyrics	13 years ago
he's definitely saying "feeding lines" rather than fading lines. As in the saint's are placing us of higher important than other animals. he's also saying "no mock defense", saying he's not going to give himself a "fake" reason to defend his actions, as in religion. this songs pretty straightforward about his relationship with religion in general

Cake – Friend Is A Four Letter Word Lyrics	13 years ago
like, he's not referring to a specific four letter word, just saying friend feels like a swear word

Cake – Friend Is A Four Letter Word Lyrics	13 years ago
A "four-letter word" figuratively means a swear word, so he finds it offensive that whomever he's singing about called him a friend (To me, coming from you, friend is a four-letter word). I personally think it's because he doesn't want to be considered "just a friend" by whoever its about.

Modest Mouse – 3rd Planet Lyrics	13 years ago
i'm pretty sure he's comparing our body to a planet, not saying we are connected to it. he's comparing all the organisms swimming in our bodies to organisms swimming in the oceans of the planet

Band of Horses – Our Swords Lyrics	13 years ago
a couple minor corrections: it's "count on us all fallin' on our own swords tonight" "humbling traffic stomping on" "...calls came, then ringing from those who wanna..." "the portions of roads" he tends to sing two words really fast togehter so it sounds like hes leaving one out

Modest Mouse – 3rd Planet Lyrics	13 years ago
i think the verse that starts "a third had just been made" is talking about how people are like planets because their bodily fluids are like oceans and organisms live in them. and the third is a baby and the other verse is talking about having sex on a cold wet lawn and the baby cum angels reminded there used to be a third but now theyre back to two.

Sufjan Stevens – Futile Devices Lyrics	13 years ago
i think the brother line just refers to how comfortable and close to he feels with whomever the songs about, whether it's a girl or a boy. I like to think that its about a girl he both loves and has a really close friendship with and that's why it sounds dumb to say
