Love Rhymes with Hideous Car Wreck Lyrics
Zigzag your torso like a Devil's self portrait
The car accident, the skin graft treatment
The flower baskets, the wincing relatives . . .
And that's the last thing that you can recall
And when they pulled you out
You didn't know your name
Exploding semi truck blurred your face with flame
Dancing at some vomit-stained frat party
Her newspaper gown, glowing headline brown
Her violent gypsy dance, her tired underpants . . .
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Rhymes with pity now
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Rhymes with sympathy now
She was so free like a pineapple in a tree
You said it's dangerous
To be so intimate
You know it's dangerous, dangerous, dangerous
The sun hit her body like an ugly landscape
Like used cars and bad livers
So you traded her in for a better looking brand
One with fake porno tits
A padlock on her lips
Disposable tan, biodegradable hands
You got no visitors at all
She visits you in your sleep,
But that newspaper gown is always on fire [x2]
When you tossed out her touch to the garbage collector
He talked her out of her skirt in his beer-soaked apartment
And then they did all the things
You never said that you wanted.
And the sirens are laughing underneath your skull
And your thoughts are turning dull, callous and cold
Yesterday you gave your burden a name
Yesterday you gave your burden a face
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Rhymes with pity now
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Rhymes with sympathy now

This is my favorite song off the new cd. I think its about a guy who was in a relationship with a girl and then he left her for someone else he thought was more attractive. Soon after he was in a car accident, which completely maimed him. The girl who he chose over the original one then left him because of this. Now as he lies alone and disfigured in a hospital bed, he realizes the mistake he made and he wish he could go back, but its too late.

This song is so amazingly good. All of the new album is good. Such a catchy song. I talk in very small sentances. clap clap

Hmm, I hate when it does it twice.

yeah Alucard is right
the dude dumbed the girl for a better looking chick then got in a car accident
PS. this song makes me clap and wanna do a dance

Why wouldn't he do anything sexually with the first girl?

Not only was there the whole problem of him leaving this girl and taking a new girl.. But he is replaced by some guy he obviously looks lowly on. Which would probably why they chose a garbage-collector for the character? beer-stained apartment. Just not the best of people--And he got Jane, whom obviously was a good girl.. But not as attractive as number two.
"And the sirens are laughing underneath your skull. And your thoughts are turning dull, callous and cold." The accident haunts him, it is turning him cold.. Making him a rather dark person.
This song has such a depressing mood to it, so it kind of makes me angry when I see people saying they want to dance to it?
It is also my favorite song off of Crimes.

Oh--And it's sad that it takes the character being injured so severely to realize his love.
"Love Rhymes with Hideous Car Wreck" such a suiting title.

i love how slutty they both sound when they sing this song.
But your burden looks an awful lot like her.
it just sounds so damn slutty.

This song is amazing...The meanings basically been said...only thing is the lyrics...he says love 12 times, not 9. = )
Johnny's vocals are so friggen high on the new album...especially this song.

fixed :)
