life in the future is blissfully kind

Yeah, everyone I know is losing their minds
Yeah, but everyone I know has a really good time



Trepanation Party - Voxtrot

Lie to me and say you love me
Do it for your sister, honey
Turn me out through leaves of plastic
Seven hours down
Every day I'm late for dinner
Monday night I'm ten pounds thinner
Rollin' through the door with modern
Looking deadly

Girls who love me
Girls who hate me
Girls who never really rate me
Come on out and celebrate me

The great erotic garbage every
Women feeds us starves to death
Staring through the kitchen window
Laughin' at me

All of the time
All of the time
All of the time

Lucy said she used to be
Like me, but now she's doing fine
Mornings at the local bath and some days the road
If you get sad and you get lonely
Call me up, I'll always love you
I'll be there to hold you
When you're seeing double

'Cause you're my friend
'Cause you're my friend

Yeah, everyone i know is losing their minds
Yeah, but everyone i know has a really good time
Drilling holes in my head
Ah, you will never go blind
I will always be the outlaw for your love

One day you will come across
Who you were, and what you lost
One day you will see with me, simple truths about
Simple times and simple taste will drag you out and make you wait
For drums of life are calling anxious

Every beat of every drum
Is telling you, not everyone
As one described, we are man's son
And you just can't see it

Something envied
Something green
Something that you took from me
Dreams of love and growing young

But life in the future is blissfully kind
We've got so many questions, left with so little time
Drilling holes in my head
Ah, you will never go blind
I will always be the outlaw for your love

Yeah, well everyone i know is losing their minds
Yeah, but everyone i know has a good time
Drilling holes in my head
Ah, you will never go blind
I will always be the outlaw for your love

How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be

How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be

Yeah, how does it feel to be
How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be

How does it feel to be
How does it feel to be
One of the beautiful
One of the beautiful people?

i was gathered like a washed-up lobster

I really dig this song! I can't believe it's been out for 11 months and still only 1,264 people on last.fm listen to it. I'm the first to try to write up the lyrics so there are def some errors. I tried all my tricks for filling in the blanks and fell short but i'd rather post 95% of the lyrics than not post the song at all... please add corrections if/when you can =)

Whizz Kid - The Amplifetes

i was a low-down, drained-out ruckster
without a mission
she picked me up outside the doctor's
she was a vision
she took me on a trip in her Bugatti
on to the cabin
it was a first-class ride but oh, then
____(?)

Easy Rider, Kafka, Kubrick

the sound goes off at random
you're talking like a whizz kid
what you're wrong about i can't spell
keep walking little whizz kid

well i was gathered like a washed-up lobster
pulled the ocean
she was a ___(?) roller-coaster
without the motion

Rolling Stones, Bukowski, gremlins

the sound goes off at random
you're talking like a whizz kid
what you're wrong about i can't spell
keep walking little whizz kid

the sound goes off at random
you're talking like a whizz kid
what you're wrong about i can't spell
keep walking little whizz kid

Chekhov, Taxi Driver, Peckinpah

the sound goes off at random
you're talking like a whizz kid
what you're wrong about i can't spell
keep walking little whizz kid

the sound goes off at random
you're talking like a whizz kid
what you're wrong about i can't spell
keep walking little whizz kid

Come In Please - Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes

Once upon a time I was the hurricane boy
There was no eye in me for you to hide
Head low don’t show oceans in my eyes
As the waves clap goodbye to sorrow

Daddy’s on the mountain yellin at the bloody sky
Mama’s in the mirror actin out another life
Children in the schoolyard singin ‘everybody dies’
And I am on the corner with a sentimental eye
I am on the corner singin sentimental lies

Hopped up on a gypsy train with tracks that you can hide
That way no storm could follow our tomorrows
But Shackled to a suitcase full of automatic thunder
CLAP!
All hail to death’s boy-wonder

JJ’s in the kitchen talking bout the end of times
Mo’s thowin Kerouac to Catch Her In the Rye
Tempermental yogis bakin merryweather pie
And I am on the corner with a sentimental eye
I am on the corner singin sentimental lies

Sometimes said it’s suntime
Let it sunshine on my mind

All the same its conscience waiting
Cross the line

Last night I dreamed myself upon a golden glade
The clouds passed in and out of my reflection
And everyone I’ve known held my hands till they were clay
And the storm finally bled from my complexion

Now Jadey’s on the mountain singing ‘We will never die’
The band is in the rainbow playin love for you and I
Heath is riding shotgun aimin at the paper sky
And I am only ‘I am’ now I’ve opened up my eye
I am only ‘I am’ that I’ve opened up my eye

Sometimes said its suntime
Let it sunshine on my mind
Healing I need healing
A good feeling I can shine
Feel it like you can see it
Like you can dream it in your mind
Sunny Hallelujah comin to ya
Rain or shine

All the same its Conscience waiting
Cross the line

I believe in waking up together

epic.



Drunk Girls (Holy Ghost! Remix) - LCD Soundsystem

(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)

(Drunk girls)
Drunk girls cause a couple of heart attacks
And drunk girls are unusually mild
But drunk boys, drunk boys keep in pace with the pedophiles
And drunk girls are boringly wild

(Drunk girls)
Drunk girls get invitations from nations
They got the patience of a million saints
(Drunk boys)
They steal, they steal from the cupboards
And drunk girls, drunk girls like to file complaints
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk girls)
(Drunk boys)
(Drunk girls)

Drunk girls are like a night of simplicity
They need a lover who is smarter than me
Well, drunk boys, drunk boys, we walk like pedestrians
And the drunk girls wait an hour to pee

Drunk girls know that love is an astronaut
It comes back, but it's never the same
Darling, drunk boys have such beautiful feelings
And drunk girls can be just as insane

Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
So oh oh
That means making eyes across the room

(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause I'm shallow doesn't mean that I'm heartless
(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause I'm heartless doesn't mean that I'm mean
(Drunk boys)
But sometimes life gives us too many options
(Drunk girls)
Just 'cause you're hungry doesn't mean that you're lean

(Drunk girls)
I've heard lies that could curdle your heartstrings
(Drunk girls)
A couple truths, maybe burn out your eyes
(Drunk boys)
Drunk boys leave their irons in the fireplace
(Drunk girls)
'Cause drunk girls give them too many tries

(Drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls, drunk girls...)

Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
Oh oh oh
I believe I'm waking up, but no promises
Oh oh oh
I believe in waiting out the weather
Oh oh oh
I believe in making eyes across the room
(When day becomes the night)
Oh oh oh
I believe in waking up together
(When day becomes the night)
Oh oh oh
I believe I'm waking up, but still
(When day becomes the night)
Honestly, honestly, honestly
Unless it hurts, why do it?
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
(When day becomes the night)
(When day becomes the night)
(When day becomes the night)
