Strange Song Lyrics

Wed Dec 27, 2006 7:29 pm

We have one for strange song titles, what about strange lyrics?

I automatically think of one song, and one song only.

"Give me a razor
Not to cut myself and talk about it
But to shave off your beard
You look better without it"

Ladies and Gentlemen...The Lets-Go-Out-Tonites - Butch Walker and the Lets-Go-Out-Tonites.

A lot of Butch's stuff is messed up. XD

Also pretty much everything by Norma Jean is...interesting. XD

<i>Do you have some time to spare
You were barking at a bear
It said hey you'd better stop
Chop your head off
Be a lighter person
Brighter person
Nicer
But you've heard it all before</i>
"Ding Dong" by Nellie McKay

Nellie's lyrics are often...sadistic and neurotic (says a fan of Liana Stillman) but this is probibly one of the stranger ones (that I've heard).

:roflol:
That's sad.

"Sarah! What's your name?" "...Sarah." "Oh, OK. Just making sure you didn't change it on me."

Wow! That's awesome.

"And it's still Sarah, right?"

There's the National Guard and the F.B.I.
There's a van from the Eyewitness News

The men were here to get your Belgian things, and only I was here to see them do it.

Your Belgian Things - The Mountain Goats

The air is heavy, heavy as a truck... *glances at Chass*

XD

Islander, Falling Up.
I couldn't catch my breath, or calculate my death
Design of secret lace, and now I'm lost in space
I couldn't catch my breath

I'll close the door, There's no one home
I'll catch my breath, and then half live
Things get stranger

The creaking of the gate, the spies will hide and wait
You think I'm deaf to hear, but my camera's are everywhere
So now it comes to this?

Blinking lights, monitor and survey the sides
Everywhere I go
Blinking lights, monitor and survey the skies
Things get stranger

One down, 250 down
The forest floor, the smell of pine
Everywhere I go things get stranger

The words don't worry me on that one, as much as...what is that song even about? lol He wants something to smoke, called a law-abiding citizen to get his clothes back, and now he's talking about razors? Seriously.

Wake up
No passenger
No parasite


No Passenger: No Parasite, Norma Jean.

Yeah...but Islander is really the worst. XD It is a pretty cool song, though.

Forgot the best one of all time. I Broke Up - Xiu Xiu.

This is the worst vacation ever
I am going to cut open your forehead with a roofing shingle
Ohh ohh

I, quite literally, laughed out loud. That is rare. And beautiful.
