Tuff Gnarl Lyrics
[Thurston]
He's running on a tuff gnarl in his head
he's got a fatal erection home in bed
he's really smart and he's really fast
he's got a hard tit killer fuck in his past
saints preserve us in hot young stuff
the saving grace is a sonic pig pile
amazing grazing strange and raging
flies are flaring through your brains
spastic flailing literally raising my roof
an adrenal mental man-tool box explodes in music creates utopia
you gnarl out on my nerves you weird and crush the cranking raunch
flesh dirt forcefield lost and found let's burn your broken heart
set our sight on sights not yet set let's scorch your wavo wig
let's poke your eyes out
He's running on a tuff gnarl in his head
he's got a fatal erection home in bed
he's really smart and he's really fast
he's got a hard tit killer fuck in his past
saints preserve us in hot young stuff
the saving grace is a sonic pig pile
amazing grazing strange and raging
flies are flaring through your brains
spastic flailing literally raising my roof
an adrenal mental man-tool box explodes in music creates utopia
you gnarl out on my nerves you weird and crush the cranking raunch
flesh dirt forcefield lost and found let's burn your broken heart
set our sight on sights not yet set let's scorch your wavo wig
let's poke your eyes out

thurston said it was pieced together from random album reviews from fanzines
since thurston said the album is mostly about philip k dick, this song seems to be about dick's amphetamine use while writing. "saints preserve us in hot young stuff" might refer to his religious experiences with schizophrenia and the period in his life when he lived with a bunch of hippies who were much younger than him. "let's burn your broken heart" could refer to dick's many failed marriages.
@2chainz1cup Interesting take, but it's just a mix up of Sonic Youth reviews they decided to hobble together for a bit of a chuckle

That's awesome if true.
where did you read that?
hard tit killer fuck in his pants would be funny, but thurston's..way better
well, if we commented on what we would censor in music all the time we would be digging up frank zappa's grave, would we not? let it be ~Nick

Here is a song I would probably like better if it didn't include certain words ("fatal erection at home in bed"/"hard tit killer fuck in his past")
Yes I know I am a prude/square/dork, and I'm fucking proud of it, okay? >:( Besides, I'm at an age where these things can seem scary. );
Can't deny how good the music is though. ;)
Anywhere I can find out more about this random album review fanzine thing? Wonder if it's true...
You're silly.

@wiggy52 I've heard it's a fact, too
