Master of None Lyrics

You always go to the parties
To pluck the feathers off all the birds
On your knees
I will not beg you please

I want your picture but not your words
You know they'd want it
But there's no first
On your own
You cannot call it your home

We always rub our hands too much
We know the reasons, but such and such
On your own
You will not catch your own bone

We run our fingers together
You know it's easy
The devil’s plan
On your own
You can not call me your own

Jack of all trades
Master of none
Cry all the time
'Cause I'm not having fun

You always want to be forgiven
The devil does what you ask of him
On your knees
You cannot
You are not for free

This song is about a cool cat who sleeps around but will never be loved because of it, yo.

I second the motion, yo.

last verse, i hear: "the devil loves what you ask of him on your knees"

Cover art for Master of None lyrics by Beach House

You always go to the parties to pluck the feathers off all the birds On your knees I will not let you be

I want your picture but not yours You know they want it, but there's no thirst On your own You can not call it your own

We always run our heads too much We know the reasons but such and such On your own You will not let your unknown

We run our fingers together You know it's easy, the devil's plan On your own You cannot call me your own

Jack of all trades Master of none I cry all the time because I'm not having fun

You always want to be forgiven The devil does what you ask of him On your knees You cannot You will not agree

Okey so in the last verse i hear: You always want to be forgiven, The devil knows what you ask of me, On your knees, But you cannot, you are not for me

i hear "to pluck the feather of all of the birds"

Actually, "You know it's easy, but devils plan". That makes sense, too.

Cover art for Master of None lyrics by Beach House

You always go to the parties To pluck the feathers off all the birds On your knees I will not beg you beast I want your picture, but not yours I know they want it But there’s no firsts On your own I cannot count you all

We want our heads too much We know the reasons but such and such On your own I will not let your arm go

We run our fingers together You know it’s easy the devil’s plan On your own You cannot call me your own

Chocolate entrees Master of none Crying all the time Cuz I’m not having fun

You always want to be forgiven The devil does what you ask of him On your knees You cannot, you’re the beast

this song, to me, seems to be obviously about comparing the act of partying with satan vs. worshiping God

@nocartwheels - chocolate entrees?

I'm hearing:

"Waiting for the lashing to arrive, I've been blessed with a kingdom half mine."

possibly a reference to a messy divorce. Lashing = divorce. Kingdom half mine = entitlement to half the other's things because of marriage?

wrong song, bud :P that's Gila

Cover art for Master of None lyrics by Beach House

I always hear "the devil knows what you ask of me" amazing amazing song anyway, even if no one can agree on the lyrics
