this is a song with no words nobody can here the missing they just look at mouth and say, "hey man, i know where he's coming from" furniture has no say in life it was made to be used by people how many times have you felt like a bookshelf full of thought already written this is a song with no words i'm sure you've heard it before you can see my mouth and you know that it's moving you already know where i'm coming from right here
The irony is that this song is about people trying to work out the meanings in their lyrics. He's saying they write the songs for themselves, not for the public, he doesn't care if you know what they're talking about or not basically. There was an interview when Ian MacKaye said he never explains his lyrics, because they're always printed in the cd booklets, surely thats enough...fair point i suppose!
i love the part in this song right after "hey man, i know where you're coming from"..."YEAH? BULLSHIT!"
thanks! I always thought he said "YOU! BULLSHIT!!!" but hey I woudln't know.
I want an SG and Rickenbker!
ol Planes got lazy on this one...no spaces and missing lyrics. One of my favorite lyrics in the world is in this song so I will put it down right.
"How many times have you felt like a bookcase/ sitting in a living room gathering dust/ full of thoughts already written/ HOW BOUT NOW?"
The way it goes with the music...priceless
Great Song
i heard Guy say this was the first song Fugazi wrote, even before he was in the band.
