Shampoo Suicide Lyrics
All the lights we were
All the lights we were
All the lights we were
Do you remember?
How they need some fruit and sweet heart
To come a time, some time we spent
(I cried for we when all was to come free
At the broken heart in the room)
Split your tongue down the semi kind
And show us lovers that don't love to live
Lick the kill that never did
Eat the trees and then get off on time
Get us something with the finger kids
(I want it)
Put your teeth where you love to love
Drink some spit just to save your life
Bury parents in a moment's time
Hate it all and you still use shampoo
You hate it all and you still use shampoo
Find some bullets in a backyard
Shoot them up with your favourite kid
Free them up like its another knife
Save them for when you thought you did
Seen the tricks all use shampoo
You hate it all
My daddy told me to get a life
Like the something of simple time
It tastes so good
I've seen your dreams and I wish you would
I've seen your choice and it don't taste so good
Sucks the jaws and they won't taste so good
I've seen your drugs and the don't look so good
Suck the jaws like I wish you would
All the lights we were
All the lights we were
Do you remember?
To come a time, some time we spent
(I cried for we when all was to come free
At the broken heart in the room)
Split your tongue down the semi kind
And show us lovers that don't love to live
Lick the kill that never did
Eat the trees and then get off on time
Get us something with the finger kids
(I want it)
Drink some spit just to save your life
Bury parents in a moment's time
Hate it all and you still use shampoo
You hate it all and you still use shampoo
Find some bullets in a backyard
Shoot them up with your favourite kid
Free them up like its another knife
Save them for when you thought you did
Seen the tricks all use shampoo
You hate it all
Like the something of simple time
It tastes so good
I've seen your dreams and I wish you would
I've seen your choice and it don't taste so good
Sucks the jaws and they won't taste so good
I've seen your drugs and the don't look so good
Suck the jaws like I wish you would

this song is enchanting.
just like love and shampoo. they allure into their sweet/cleansing trap. then you end up broken hearted and with shampoo on your eyes.
love it
I think that the beauty of this song is that, the garbled and hard to discern lyrics allow for people to hear things in their own way - to single out phrases in their mind. If I read these lyrics while listening to the song, I can definitely hear them, but if I listen to the song itself I hear different things... maybe that was the way this song was intended.
Beyond the lyrics, I love how the song builds for the first minute or so with the happy guitar plucks and high piano. There is some foreshadowing though, with a dramatic and lower sound coming and going. At about 1:32 when the bass line changes, and then the emotional-sounding guitar blends in, I just love how quickly the mood changes while retaining a lot of the same elements.
I consider this one of Broken Social Scene's best.
my friend beatboxed to this song. i was tripping out stoned as fuck
the build up of this song is just ridiculously amazing. to me, the lyrics don't really matter because it's just all about how the words sound together and the different sounds of the voices. i feel like the listener is supposed to be confused because that's how the writer felt. looking at these lyrics (whether they're right or not) was kind of interesting though.. i do love the thought of the line "you hate it all and you still use shampoo." i think that pretty much sums up the mood of the song. like everything's useless and jumbled and you're trying to make sense of it in your head and keep yourself together in your routines so the craziness can't completely take you over.
Love the song. The first time I heard it I was writing an essay and had the volume quite low,I was right at the end of the song before I realised it wasn't an instrumental! God.... I had to go back and listen to the entire album.....I felt so stupid. All the lyrics seem to come in and out. I like how you can half hear things, certain words seem to stick out, i hear 'You had it all, you still use/ shampoo' whatever it is it's massively awesome.
Oh, hi, did yall get the memo that this is the greatest song ever record on earth?
This is really one of my favorite songs. If not the favorite.
so glad someone posted the lyrics to this.
This song its about how everything starts of nice and organised, but over time, it just slowly falls apart. BSS does this by having the song slowly get more and more confusing and unorderly with the addition of more instruments over time
i lovelovelovelove this song. how did you figure out the lyrics? cos these are completely different than anything i read on like forums and stuff. like i thought it was "said you hate it all/ but you still use shampoo" and i always loved the idea of that. anyways, this song is so beautiful in all its chaos. its always reminded me of the chaos of unrequited feelings for a close friend-all these different things going on in your head telling you different things. i'm happy to see someone figured out lyrics though.
