Sweet Sunshine Lyrics
Touch me on the inside with a finger full of gravy
Wanna get you on the sofa, lady wanna shake and bake me
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
Bottle full of pain with a hog's head screaming
Be a scumbag soul and a body always screaming
Grab your wine, tell me where you been
With the violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin
Grab your wine, tell me where you been
With the violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin
I wanna climb up on the wall
I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball
I wanna climb up on the wall
I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball
Hail to the dawning of the plentiful sensation
'Cause the town is full of sound and I killed my last relation
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanna get you on the sofa, lady wanna shake and bake me
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
Be a scumbag soul and a body always screaming
Grab your wine, tell me where you been
With the violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin
Grab your wine, tell me where you been
With the violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin
I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball
I wanna climb up on the wall
I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball
'Cause the town is full of sound and I killed my last relation
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil and get me some more

Dammit... I wish I wasn't the first one to post on this. I really want to know what this is about, this song rocks ass!
man this song means... well IDK umm none of the songs make sense, good song though
Sorta creepy. I love this song. Sounds like a bad acid trip to me
The lyrics are off.
"Touch me on the inside with a finger full of gravy, wanna get you on the sofa, lady, wanna shake and bake me"
"Bottle full of pain with a hog's head screaming With a scumbag soul and a body always screaming"
"...violin cryin'..."
"Hail to the dawning of the plentiful sensation 'Cause the town is full of sound and I killed my last relation"
Sounds a lot like drugs, if you ask me, but my view's skewed. But ex-girlfriend makes a lot of sense.
I'll shake and bake Beck. (x
But, seriously, this song scares me. o_o Whatever it is in the background through the song that kind-of sounds like it's growling..eugh..~shivers~
This is another Beck song where I have no idea what it could mean. =/ He's probably the only one that knows. Haha.
is this song about masterbation? or a rapist? idk but think about it..
It could be... I kept thinking acid trip too O:
The lyrics are off. I think they're supposed to be:
Touch me on the inside with a finger full of gravy Gonna get you on the sofa, lady wanna shake and bake me Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine I wanna get up off the floor, I wanna run to the devil and get me some more I wanna get up off the floor, I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
Bottle full of pain with a hog's head screaming With a scumbag soul and a body always screaming Grab your wine, tell me where you been With a violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin Grab your wine, tell me where you been With a violin cryin' and the moon gettin' thin I wanna climb up on the wall, I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball I wanna climb up on the wall, I wanna swing through the city on a wreckin' ball
Hail to the dawning of the plentiful sensation 'Cause the town is full of sound and I killed my imagination Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine Bucket full of blood, got you on my mind Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine I wanna get up off the floor, I wanna run to the devil and get me some more I wanna get up off the floor, I wanna run to the devil and get me some more
Then again, the vocals on this song are really hard to interpret because of all the weird distortion on it.
I honestly have no clue what this song is about. On one hand, it sounds like it could be about addiction, with lines like "I wanna run to the devil and get me some more" and the "sweet sunshine" is whatever you're addicted to. I can also see it having something to do with masturbation or sex.
Though knowing Beck's Mellow Gold era songwriting, he probably just made them up from the top of his head like he did with Loser, Steal My Body Home, and a few others. I think one of the weirdest things about this song is that it's called "Sweet Sunshine," yet it sounds so...dark. Maybe he was going for that, so he threw in some dark-sounding lyrics for ironic purposes?
There's something about this whichs reminds me of Tom Waits and Primus' "Jack Kerouac on the road."
I really have no idea what this song means.. It's pretty strange. I also assumed it was dealing with drugs + sex.
