Beautiful Freak

"Some people think you have a problem But that problem lies only within"

I've always heard these lines as:

Some people think you have a problem But that problem lies only with THEM

Sort of makes sense, but hey, what do I know.

By the way, it's not about Elizabeth. E says in his book that it's about his then-girlfriend Susan, the same one who inspired "Susan's House."

"Some people think you have a problem But that problem lies only within Just 'cause you are not like the others" This line couldn't be more correct. Often people who look or act slightly strange or different get pointed at and critised by stupid people who think that some one differents has a problem, without realising that the one with the problem is themselves. This song is great!

"Too good for this world But I hope you will stay And I'll be here to see that you don't fade away" I love that. It's ironic, the "normal" people are the ones who think they're too good for people who are "different," when it's almost always the other way around. People who follow the crowd are usually not interesting or fun people to be around.

This is a quality song i love it loads, i have to say it's one of my favourite eels songs. When i first heard it and read the lyrics, the first impressions i got from it was that the singer was singing about how he loved someone who wasn't considered ur average person, and no matter what other people think of her, he still loves her. xxxxxxxxxx

This is also one of my favorite Eels songs. The lyrics are self-explanatory...just because youre not loved by society doesn't mean youre a bad person

This is probably my favorite Eels song... it makes me think of my bf. hes a little out of the ordinary and thats why i love him!

Yeah, my ex-boyfriend said it reminded him of me when we were seeing eachother. I thought he was strange. Haha. (I'm only a freak on the inside). But this is an okay song, not my favorite Eel's song, though. I do thank him for introducing me to the Eels anyway.

He says, "I wish there could be more just like you," but if there were more, it wouldn't be the same. Then she would just be like everyone else.

great song. nice work byt he eels. great meaning to the song. very self explanitory though.
