Erroneous Manipulation Lyrics

An inwrought irksome rabbit
is washing my stomach
I can't stop thinking about my tonsils
how they are pendulating between my toes
slowly suffering from liberty
I'm naked on a TV-set and it's running wild,
fast, sweet and heavy penetrating in to my
grandparents pupils out of reach but with a
canoes evil emotion

Allright I can admit it now
I was a screaming and lying stoneoperation
who searched his way through carparts
afraid to be recognized by a spoon

Birds with empty refridgerators heated up the
childrens chairsweat
There was no chance to drive the table without
a blue sock cause my mistakes rolled down above
the forest of investigation
As soon as I heard my neighbor bend his arm
with a submarine the milk was hot and dangerous
like a bed

Nobody understands how wipewashers can breathe cows
Farting magazines are wading in waxed scarecrows

Falling flesh punched me in my bathsuit look alike neck
which controls universe with an irongrip of umbrellas
I'm wiping away some mirrors from the snakes
without drinking any busstations

Sorry, I'm in love with a door

Cover art for Erroneous Manipulation lyrics by Meshuggah

That's right...according to Peter Nordin (former Mesh bassist), Fredrik wrote the original lyrics when he was very young, and when it came time to publish the lyrics in the CC booklet, he realized how embarassing they sounded, so he threw them away and made up these crazy fake lyrics in its place. Since then, no one, not even the band members in Meshuggah, know what the real lyrics are. I can make out some words, like "We trample over (or under) marching maggots", "Insanity", "take care of your life", "everybody die", "inside", "fucking", "swim", and "we'll all be looking after something, destroying ourselves"...well, that's what it sounds like to me. I can't decipher the rest...but I wish I knew the whole song. You'd think Fredrik would remember them since he wrote them and sang them, but I guess the real lyrics will forever remain a mystery.

you guys know that these arent the real lyrics to the song right? Apparently not...

I think this song was intentionally written to have no meaning, and I wouldn't be surprised if he was on drugs when he wrote this because it's so wacko.

i think this song is about being on drugs (namely LSD or PCP). or just a seriously fucked up mental nut case.

i don't really like Meshuggah's "Metalica" phase, but its all good. the crazed atonal math metal is just amazing.

Actually, although i can see the drug reference (especially because of how fucked up the lyrics are), i never actually thought it was about drugs, i always thought it was about a Pathological Liar and how not just everything they say is a lie, but it's so blatantly a lie, so if they say "Birds with empty refridgerators heated up the childrens chairsweat" then thats obviously a lie, but then again, all the lyrics are so fucked up though and there is even a reference to a spoon, that maybe it really was written while he was on drugs and/or is about drugs. Ahh well i guess we'll never really know, but the song still kicks ass, so there. \m/ 0 \m/

I've listened to this song so many damn times. It was reportedly written in broken English and coupled with the bad accent, it's nearly impossible to decipher accurately. I've tried, and this is what I think it may be:

(something) the back of the marching maggots, where it started We're always looking after something, a story to tell When we know nothing about it

It's already started (Sounds like "the terrible stoneface") But we're oblivious It's still so obvious To those (alone? alert?)

What're you gonna hear inside (something) give you peace in head The only (Something) afraid is insanity

It's already started (Sounds like "the terrible stoneface") But you're oblivious I still don't want to live For very long

(something) greed (something): terror fucking lies Stick your head out for your life: everybody dies

I suppose it could be about government corruption or something
