I am like Jack, I am from southern land
I'm holding your happiness in my hand
the sun behind me is a sexual red
and all your bounty-hunting ghosts are dead
I am like Jack and I tell you this
I will be your lover and exorcist
In the stillness of the mosquito sunset
you will make love to me to your very best

one baby to another says i'm lucky to have met you
i don't care what you think unless it is about me
it is now my duty to completely drain you
i travel through a tube and end up in your infection
chew your meat for you
pass it back and forth
in a passionate kiss
from my mouth to yours
i like you
with eyes so dilated i've become your pupil
you taught me everything without a poison apple
the water is so yellow i'm a healthy student
indebted and so grateful vacuum out the fluids
chew your meat for you
pass it back and forth
in a passionate kiss
from my mouth to yours
sloppy lips to lips
you're my vitamins
i like you

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Satan again.

I miss your kissing and I miss your head
And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
Run outside in the desert heat
Make your dress all wet and send it to me

some velvet morning when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up yr gate
and maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
and how she gave me life
and how she made it in
some velvet morning when I'mmm straaaaaaight


flowers growing on the hill
dragonflies and daffodils
learn from us very much
look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name


some velvet morning when I'm straight
I'm gonna open up yr gate
and maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
and how she gave me life
and how she made it in
some velvet morning when I'mmm straaaaaaight


flowers are the things we know
secrets are the things we grow
learn from us very much
look at us but do not touch
Phaedra is my name


some velvet morning when I'm straight
flowers growing on the hill
I'm gonna open up yr gate
dragonflies and daffodils
and maybe tell you 'bout Phaedra
learn from us very much
and how she gave me life
look at us but do not touch
and how she made it in
Phaedra is my name

when you fall in love with me
we can dig a hole by the willow tree
then i will fuck you 'til you die
bury you, and kiss this town goodbye!
it'll be unhappy, it will be sad
but it would be understood that i am baaad
so don't you go 'n' lie to me
cause every day is judgement day with me

hey hey, hey hey

Andy would bicycle across town in the rain to bring you
Candy and John would buy the gown for you to wear to the
Prom with Tom the astronomer who'd name a star for you
But I'm the luckiest guy on the Lower East Side
Cause I've got wheels and you want to go for a ride
Harry is the one I think you'll marry but it's Chris
That you kissed after school I'm a fool, there's no doubt
But when the sun comes out and only when the sun
Comes out... The day is beautiful and so are you
My car is ugly but then I'm ugly too I know you'd
Never give me a second glance but when the weather's
Nice all the other guys don't stand a chance
I know Professor Blumen makes you feel like a woman
But when the wind is in your hair you laugh like a little girl
So you share secrets with Lou but we've got secrets too
Well, one: I only keep this heap for you
Cause I'm the ugliest guy on the Lower East Side
But I've got wheels and you want to go for a ride
Want to go for a ride?

jerf 09.06.2009 04:18 PM

You can spend your time alone
Redigesting past regrets, Oh
Or you can, come to terms and realize
You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, Oh
Makes much more sense to live in the present tense

Stephanie says that she wants to know
Why she's given half her life, to people she hates now
Stephanie says when answering the phone
What country shall I say is calling from across the world

But she's not afraid to die, the people all call her Alaska
Between worlds so the people ask her 'cause it's all in her mind
It's all in her mind

Stephanie says that she wants to know
Why it is though she's the door She can't be the room

Stephanie says but doesn't hang up the phone
What sea shell she is calling from across the world

But she's not afraid to die, the people all cal her Alaska
Between worlds so the people ask her 'cause it's all in her mind
It's all in her mind

She asks you is it good or bad
It's such an icy feeling it's so cold in Alaska,
it's so cold in Alaska, it's so cold in Alaska

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Sonic Youth 37 again.

(lyrics from a very very obscure song by an eighties electro band from luxembourg, obvz.)

Sonic Youth 37 09.06.2009 08:12 PM

In all honesty, I can barely listen to that song because of the fucked-up relationship between the person who introduced my to the VU (whose name is indeed Stephanie) and myself.

Satan 09.06.2009 08:39 PM

the world's a mess it's in my kiss



because i just felt like it.

Sonic Youth 37 09.06.2009 08:40 PM

Back in school they never taught us what we needed to know,
like how to deal with despair, or someone breaking your heart.
For twelve years I've held it all together but a night like this is begging to pull me apart.
I played it quiet, left you deep in conversation.
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen.
I remember I kept thinking that I know you never would,
and now I know I want to kill you like only a best friend could.

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to.

As if this happening wasn't enough I got to go
and write a song just to remind myself how bad it sucked.
Ignore the sun, the cover's over my head.
I wrote a message on my pillow that says, "Jesse, stay asleep in bed."
So don't apologize. I hope you choke and die.
Search your cell for something with which to hang yourself.
They say you need to pray if you want to go to heaven
but they don't tell you what to say when your whole life has gone to hell.

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to
And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again.)
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

And is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back.
So let's end this call, and end this conversation.
and is that what you call a getaway?
well tell me what you got away with.
cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say best friends means friends forever

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Well tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

Everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)
And everyone's caught on to everything you do (And I can't let you, let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to (And I can't let you, let me down again)

No, it's not what we meant to say.
We don’t really love each other.
What happens when the summer’s over?
How long before distance becomes a chore?
I'm approaching with great, great trepidation.
I hope you’ll understand.

Before you speak think about what you're trying to say.
Who else is there to blame for miscommunication?
You're getting caught up in the excitement.
You making promises you can’t keep.
You need to leave all your options open.

Too much momentum.
This room feels like it's going to explode.
Too many angles.
Too many factors to cover.
Waiting for signal.
You're searching for network.
You have to fight to stay in control of the situation.

Anxiety, Anxiety you give me no mercy.
Grind my teeth smooth and flat in my sleep.
We took some pills to calm us down.
Then we needed help to come back up.
Just trying to stay in control of the situation.

Too much momentum.
This room feels like it's going to explode.
Too many angles.
Too many factors to cover.
Waiting for signal.
You're searching for network.
You have to fight to stay in control of the situation.
They fall apart so easily.

Too much momentum.
This room feels like it's going to explode.
Too many angles.
Too many factors to cover.
Waiting for signal.
You're searching for network.
You have to fight to stay in control.
You have to fight to stay in control.
No, you don’t have to fight to stay in control of the situation.

terriblecanyons 09.06.2009 08:43 PM

Josh, I wish I could fucking rep you. I love Brand New

Sonic Youth 37 09.06.2009 08:51 PM

Haven't you posted the lyrics to that over 9000 times already?

terriblecanyons 09.06.2009 08:51 PM

DGAF. It's my favorite song.

Here, I'll post some different ones for a change.

Regime change under a Bush doctrine of democratic installations.
Constant war for constant soldiers.
What are we gonna do now?
De-escalation, through military force.
Increase the pressure, Oh Condoleeza
What should we do about the situation in Iran and North Korea?

Condoleeza.

Democratic election under Marshall law.
An Iraqi president out of control of our choices.
After all this death and destruction
Do you really think your actions advocate freedom?
The presidents giving a speech in Georgetown
To remember the voice of a slain civil rights leader,
Do you understand what the martyrs stood for?
Oh Condoleeza do you get the fucking joke?

Condoleeza
Condoleeza
Condoleeza
What are we gonna do now?
Condoleeza
Condoleeza
Condoleeza
What are we gonna do now?

I first listened to them about a week and a half ago. I wish I could go back and be that kind of angsty. I was more into catharsis through noise.
