| Neva Dinova – Someone's Trippin' Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
|
The "someone" is singer/lyricist Jake Bellows, and this song is about his heroin addiction, which he still hasn't kicked. That's why Neva Dinova is on indefinite hiatus. |

| Neva Dinova – Squirrels Lyrics
| 12 years ago
|
They have amazing lyrics because Nebraskans aren't your typical people, nor do they write typical songs. Also, Jake Bellows (the singer) does lots of heroin, and that always helps songwriting until the user can't stay conscious. And that last part is why the band is on indefinite hiatus. They're waiting for Jake to get clean.
I'm a music writer in the Omaha area, so that's how I know these things. |

| 16 years ago

Lady Godiva is a transvestite man who really wants to be a woman, "Dressed in silk, latin lace and envy" He/She recently discovered that he/she could get a sex change operation, "Life has made her that much bolder now/that she's found out how" Lady Godiva is the one on the table, but the operation goes awry and he/she dies because of sloppy anesthetizers. The song is split into two parts, the first being Lady Godiva with one of his/her boyfriends, "Making love to every poor daughter's son/isn't it fun" anxiously awaiting the operation. The second part is the operation, gone horribly wrong. |

There's a section of this song missing from the lyrics:
"I want to see little green men sleep with me."
He repeats this a couple of times before the guitar/bass/drum bit kicks in. |

I'm going to write a play based on this song. It will be a Carolina Drama drama. This is such good material. Jack White is a lyrical and musical genius. I want to meet the milk man. |
