Tourette's Lyrics

- Moderate Rock!

Mayday every day, in my heart.
Could've had a heart attack, in my heart.
We don't know anything, in my heart.
We all want something fair, in my heart.
Hey!
Hey!
Heyyyyyyy! (x3)

Out of town, out of sight, is my heart.
Queen of lies, everyday, in my heart.
My heart, one more on the phone, my heart.
One more at the phone, at my heart
Hey!
Hey!
Heyyyyyyyyyyy! (x2)

Mean heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart
Cold heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart!

Uhhhhhhh!

finally i know what the hell he's sayin

This song is not necessarily only about tourette's: It is using the outbursts associated with the condition to convey the feeling of loss of control associated with panic attacks. And the "cold heart, mean heart" bit is about how when in that state of mind you feel as if no-one understands, and absolutely no-one can give you relief. Even the pace of the song conveys racing thought patterns and despair.

My Interpretation

There was a live version of this song performed as well, as part of the "from the muddy banks of the wishkah" set. Again, no officila lyrics were transcribed, but this is best interepretation anyway. Any advances on these lyrics would be much appreciated:-

Down down, self defense, in my heart One more, out today, flown home Granted to your sense of sound, in my eyes Every day, I can change, my mind

Hey (x3)

Go, go, tell the tale, in my eyes Everything teddy sees, is all wrong Burning down half the town, and my house Entertaining sanity, for mine

Hey (x3)

Jonestown, such a frown, let's see yours Hanging round half the town, or go home When I'm down, all fall down, for me Hitch a train to sante fe, or walk

Hey (x3)

Take me home Mean horse (x3)

@liam_hunt very good lyrics... i like them much better than the actual lyrics.

One small note, buzz baby. I was diagnosed with Tourette's in my childhood. While you know who they named Tourrete's Syndrome after, you should have known or specified otherwise that when you have Tourette's, you won't indefinately go around swearing your head off no matter what. That's just another stereotype last I checked, though some people with Tourette's will swear.
