Pumpkin Lyrics

Alison Goldfrapp:
Pumpkin
you're hollow within
More how I'm to slowly
let their harm
Give us some
It's sad until
Like flowers untamed
Shine out ends
I find what will make him
Love me
Life is our find
Hollow is he

Tricky:
I can't breathe and I can't see
MTV moves too fast, I refuse to understand
You go your way and I'll see mine
Feels like wasted time
And it feels like I must be blind
How'd you like yourself?
You don't know yourself

Alison Goldfrapp:
To a hollow kind,don't mind
Love is some of you
Don't dabble in fall of failure
How bad,ooh,ooh

Tricky and Alison Goldfrapp:
I smell of she and I fail to be
Well anyway,well anyway,well anyway

Alison Goldfrapp:
See how high
Go on

Tricky:
I can't see and I can't breathe
I can't see and I can't breathe
I can't see and I can't breathe
I can't see and I can't breathe
Well anyway, well anyway

I think that Alison is representing the success and hollowness of the music industry and kind of trying to seduce Tricky in the song.

Pumpkin you're hollow within I find what will make him Love me Life is our find Hollow is he

And tricky is so wrapped up in the music that he doesn't know who is is and is confused I guess.

How'd you like yourself? You don't know yourself I can't breathe and I can't see MTV moves too fast, I refuse to understand

If that makes any sense.

Anyways it's a beautiful song and I'm suprised no one has posted about the song...

It's a dig at Billy Corgan, that's why the song "Suffer" is sampled. Tricky has said in an interview that he thinks Corgan is exceedingly pretentious.

I love how unintelligible Alison is on this track. Tricky delivers the only lyrics that can be halfway understood.

i used to call my wife pumpkin. "Pumpkin i'd say get the fuck off the lawn bitch, i just mowed it!' one day however, after she fell off bike and landed on my prize roses, i just snapped into a fit of rage and balled my fist into her thick hobbit like skull. She lay there in the middle of my front garden wailling in pain. surfice to say i am now spending the rest of my free life in a 2 by 2 meter cell with a guy known only to his close friends as "pumpkin pusher" i now wish i had killed the bitch so i would be sent to maximum security prison instead of this hell.
