Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Leaflets club and leaflets Gabe, I know
Life is better at the candy store
Why is life and why is wage, I know
It all gets colder at the North, North Pole
Ba ba bapaba ba baa ba ba
Ba ba bapaba ba datada da da
Both be long and both are big, I know
Life is better as an animal
Leaflets love and leaflets Gabe, I know
Life is better as a candy store
Ba ba bapaba ba baa ba ba
Ba ba bapaba ba datada da da
Life is better at the candy store
Why is life and why is wage, I know
It all gets colder at the North, North Pole
Ba ba bapaba ba baa ba ba
Ba ba bapaba ba datada da da
Both be long and both are big, I know
Life is better as an animal
Leaflets love and leaflets Gabe, I know
Life is better as a candy store
Ba ba bapaba ba baa ba ba
Ba ba bapaba ba datada da da

I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
This song is from the CD "The Unaccompanied Voice: An A Capella Compilation," a collection of famous and unknown indie bands/musicians using nothing but their voices, and as little as foot stomping and hand clapping to bring you some well known, and some never before heard of songs. This song is one of the poorest recordings on the album, which ranges in recording prowess. This lyrics are mine and the Mod Mouse forum's best guess, and may or may not be correct. If you have any disagreements or opinions, send me an E-mail and I'll consider including them.
