Me-I Lyrics

La la la laa
La la
La la la laa
La la
La la la laa
La la

Me, I
Made my bed for the very first time...
Today!

Me, I, me, I
Made my bed for the very first time...
Today!

Me, I
Walked around with
Hospital corners

Me, I
When my momma said, "What'd you do today?"
I said, "Momma, I just... I just..."


Me, I
Made my bed for the very first time...
Today! Aaaaaa-aaaa-a-aaaaaa-ay!

Me, I
Built in pillows that hold the shape of
Hospital corners

Me, I
When my momma said, "What'd did you do?"
I just said, "Me, I"

Momma!
Momma!
Momma!
Momma!
Momma!
Momma!
Momma!
Momma!

Me, I
Made my bed for the very first time...
Today!

Me, I
Made my bed for the very first time...
Today!

Well, momma said...
She said, "Son, what you been doin' all day?"
And I said, "I'm tryin' to make a place for myself..."

Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream
Where I can dream

And never, ever have to wake up.

And never, ever have to wake up.


As for what it's about, I don't think there's any hidden meaning. It's simply about the joy that a child feels the first time they've done something by his or herself without any adult intervention. Do you remember the first time you made your bed, tied your shoes or zipped up your jacket for the first time? That's what this song's about.

From what I hear from the song and see from the the video this song has two meanings... 1 young guy so doped from drugs he was put in an mental institute and is crying for his mom... 2 this is a young man living an everyday dreary life, every decision he has made in his life is catching up with him. If you watch the video it shows the bird going the stages in life... meet a female, make babies, buying food.... witch all come chasing you often as they are the bills we pay on a regular basis... making us go back to work and having poeple stomp all over us.... guy like that can only wish to forget about it all and go back to living with momma. In the video when he yells out momma the bird is surrounded by by trees like he is looking for the tree that he came from... The "bills" stop chasing him and he dances around like he succeded.... but its a place for him to dream.

I tried my best with these lyrics. It was hard cause I have ear problems and the song is fuzzy. I'm beginning to think the first lyrics might be the same as "in my bed for breakfast time today" I'm not sure on the whole song but some parts I am.

I don't listen to them that much but when I heard this song I had to find out the lyrics and couldn't find any so I tried it myself.

You can find the song on the Warm n Scratchy album here.

Okay, here's what I could come up with for what you lost... "with my friends for the first time today"

Second line (along with the ones that you put as "In my bed for breakfast time today) is actually "made my bed for the very first time today"

As for the "songmeaning"....my guess is about as good as anybody elses. To put it simply, this song is not only confusing, but also fairly awful :D

As for the pillow thing, I have no clue, man... no clue.

Cover art for Me-I lyrics by TV on the Radio

Me-I is a social philosophy. Me is the socialized aspect of the person. The "Me" is what is learned in interaction with others and (more generally) with the environment: other people's attitudes, once internalized in the self, constitute the Me.

I is the active aspect of a person.'the "I" is the response of the individual to the attitude of the community'. The "I" acts creatively, though within the context of the me.
