Miss Ohios Nameless Lyrics
So the kids on the internet say that you're a big noise,
you made the message board top ten.
a thousand bucks to sing your verse and chorus,
until their alcohol's all gone.
you need an hour to clean thorns off of roses
from the florist on peidmont.
maybe they'll say that your big noise voice was golden
when your at the funeral home.
well they remember more than ever
but i guess we'll never know.
if they'll remember it was more than ever
and you were so excited yesterday...
you said you were living loud under the tree tops in the forest dark,
but no one knew your name at the local open mic tonight...
you'll only be famous in your underground,
you've been miss ohio's nameless in her evening gown,
and when your voice is wasted and you've lost your sound,
you'll know where your plane is when it's going down.
we'll barrell and bag up the fallen leaves
you made the message board top ten.
a thousand bucks to sing your verse and chorus,
until their alcohol's all gone.
you need an hour to clean thorns off of roses
from the florist on peidmont.
maybe they'll say that your big noise voice was golden
when your at the funeral home.
but i guess we'll never know.
if they'll remember it was more than ever
and you were so excited yesterday...
but no one knew your name at the local open mic tonight...
you've been miss ohio's nameless in her evening gown,
and when your voice is wasted and you've lost your sound,
you'll know where your plane is when it's going down.
we'll barrell and bag up the fallen leaves

i think it is "and 8 an hour" not "you need an hour"
It should say "EVEN miss ohio's nameless" not You've been. The point (I think) being that when Miss Ohio is on stage at a beauty contest or whatever, everyone pays attention to her, but when she goes home at night she isn't a beauty queen, she's just some random ordinary person. She isn't wearing the sash that reads Miss Ohio anymore, and is thus nameless. He's saying that however famous you are in some circle, in a different situation you're a nobody.
I've always heard "and 8 an hour" and "EVEN miss ohio's nameless" too. I love singing with this song on full blast, especially with the light harmony he goes into with "but no one knew your name at the local open mic toniiiiiiiiiiiiiight..." It's just one of those songs that makes you feel gooood.

he's talking to a person who let a little fame get to their head, and are now realizing that they're not hot $hit!!!
could this song have anything to do with that old project/band Miss Ohio's Nameless? they only released one album awhile back, very underground sorta deal, but so good... it was Yoni, Odd Nosdam, Doug, and a few others... coincidence or connection?
Do you know where I could find that album?

So the kids on the internet say you're a big noise You made the message board top ten
A thousand bucks to sing your verse and chorus Until their alcohol's all gone
It ain't an hour to clean thorns off of roses From the florist on Piedmont.
Maybe they'll say your big noise voice was golden when you're at the funeral home.
Will they remember more than embers? But I guess we'll never know. If they'll remember it was more embers
And you were so excited yesterday.
You said you were living loud under the treetops in the forest dark
But no-one knew your name at the local open mic tonight.
You'll only be famous in the underground Even Miss Ohio's nameless in their evening gown
and when your voice is wasted and you've lost your sound,
you'll know where your plane is when it's going down.
We'll barrel and bag up the falling leaves.
Am I sick to think I look best under fluorescent lights... or in a the cramped-corpse light of an airplane bathroom?
that was a lyric correction, by the way, forgot to tag it as such.
