WTF Song Lyrics. - Page 2

Shawnee123 · 11-24-2008, 03:27 PM

After nine days I let the horse run free
cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

He was trying to sound "casual"(Lionel Richie). Hey, did you notice his accent in that song, like he's almost a hick? Why in that song only is he trying to be country? It's confusing....

I never understood why Prince was makin' love to chili dogs in Erotic City.

Holy shit. The Oasis song I wanted to hear just came on...f'ing weird.

muzak would be a friendship breaker for me as well. I was in a dealership last month and the finance guy had his itunes CRANKING throughout the dealership. Oye como vas? Box of rain, Eminence Front, etc. it was an awesome set, I couldn't believe it was happening.

Semolina Pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower.
Elementary penguin singing Hare Krishna.
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe.

-Beatles

I thought he was DEAD!

edit: Cash I mean.

Speaking of Beatles:

Number 9. Number 9. Number 9.

WTF?????

footfootfoot · 11-24-2008, 03:39 PM

He's feeling better...

Shawnee123 · 11-24-2008, 03:41 PM

All the time...bettah bettah bettah

He was fixing a hole, where the rain came in...

That's how I heard the song. But it's never referred to as a bitter ot twisted love song. It sounds pretty grim to me!

I'm sorry, what were you saying?

My mind was wandering...

Shawnee123 · 11-24-2008, 03:47 PM

Uh...WHO?

I showed up late one night
with a neon light for a Visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight
can't make letting me in any easier
