Pink Lyrics
Don't say this:
"Leave me with your brown boots behind the door and come to bed.
Everybody lies, I never said I'd be happy"
Don't say it, don't injure your mouth trying to show me
Where you've been. I've seen everything
You can't ambush behind the tomcat grin
Sad sad, tomcat
That's all it is, blood in your ears
Watching the feet while the song disappears
Don't save this.
Put on your best suit, wash and go.
Get out of my head.
Everybody lies but let's be happy
I am gorgeous, pink and skimpy
Let's be famous, let's be happy, and obnoxious
Thick and skinny, rich and famous
That's a hideous void in your ears
Watching the moon while the sky disappears
That's all there is, that's all I know
Got a couple of friends, say I told you so
"Leave me with your brown boots behind the door and come to bed.
Everybody lies, I never said I'd be happy"
Don't say it, don't injure your mouth trying to show me
Where you've been. I've seen everything
You can't ambush behind the tomcat grin
Sad sad, tomcat
That's all it is, blood in your ears
Watching the feet while the song disappears
Put on your best suit, wash and go.
Get out of my head.
Everybody lies but let's be happy
I am gorgeous, pink and skimpy
Let's be famous, let's be happy, and obnoxious
Thick and skinny, rich and famous
Watching the moon while the sky disappears
That's all there is, that's all I know
Got a couple of friends, say I told you so

love this song. and I love the end part with Emily and someone I'm gonna assume is James talking to some random lady. beat me up with your guitar is this what we've learnt so far? fat cigar between your legs no one likes a woman that begs
yes! the last little recording is so amazing. i don't know why i find it so beautiful... casue that lady is obviously drunk and has no idea what she's talking about. it's so great though.
the recording at the end almost overshadows the song..
Gah. I want to slap that stupid drunk women to death.
I wonder what manner of grin, precisely, is a tomcat grin?
I read the recording at the end is a homeless woman. mmh.
yeah it is a homeless woman, and it makes it somewhat ironic because the homeless woman (who may beg people for money) reads "no one likes a woman that begs" and she probably doesn't even realise what she's reading due to her intoxication.
"That's a hideous void in your ears" should definitely be "That's all it is, blood in your ears"
Love this song. I'm pretty sure these are the lyrics:
Don't say this Leave it with your brown boots behind the door and come to bed Everybody lies, I never said I'd be happy Don't say it Don't injure your mouth trying to show me where you've been I've seen everything You can't hide much behind that tomcat grin Sad sad tomcat That's how it is, blood in your ears Watching your feet while the song disappears
Don't say this. Put on your best suit, wash and go Get out of my head Everybody lies but
let's be happy (oh, let's be happy) I am gorgeous (oh, I am gorgeous) Pink and skimpy (pink, pink, skimpy) Let's be famous (let's be famous) Let's be happy (oh, let's be happy) And obnoxious (and obnoxious) Pink and skinny (pink pink pink and skinny) Rich and famous, rich and famous
That's how it is, blood in your ears Watching the moon while the sky disappears That's all there is and that's all I know Got a couple of friends, see I told you so
