Nu ik de tekst van Life Goes On zo zie is er eigenlijk weinig onbegrijpelijks aan...

Deze daarentegen:

What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed
I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream
Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh

I'd studied your cartoons, radio, music, TV, movies, magazines
Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"
A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh

"What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh
Butterfly decal, rear-view mirror, dogging the scene
You smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth
You said that irony was the shackles of youth
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh
I couldn't understand
You said that irony was the shackles of youth, uh-huh
I couldn't understand
You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh
I couldn't understand
I never understood, don't fuck with me, uh-huh

quote:

I wrote that protagonist as a guy who's desperately trying to understand what motivates the younger generation, who has gone to great lengths to try and figure them out, and at the end of the song it's completely fucking bogus. He got nowhere. ”

—Michael Stipe

Alsjeblieft, met een beetje inzicht had je het ook wel zonder de quote kunnen doen

quote:

NEW GODS
How much do I owe you? / I’ll pay but I don’t want to / Days of where I came from / In a restaurant in mexico / They told me not to drink the water / And not to touch the food / “All we got is pepsi cola / And we know that it won’t hold / You but remember what we told / You no one else knows what’s in store / Remember that we told you”

Meat Puppets

Mary Poppins:
When trying to express oneself, it's frankly quite absurd,
To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word.
A little spontaniaty keeps conversation keen,
You need to find a way to say, precisely what you mean...

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Even though the sound of it is something quite atrosicous!
If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious,

Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins:
When Stone Age men were chatting, merely grunting would suffice.

Bert:
Now if they heard this word, they might have used it once or twice!

Mrs. Corry:
I'm sure Egyptian pharoahs would have grasped it in a jiff,
Then every single pyramid would bear this hieroglyph;

Oh!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Say it and wild animals would not seem so ferocious!

Mary Poppins:
Add some further flourishes, it's so ro-co-co-coscious!

Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Bert:
The Druids could have carved it on their mighty monoliths!

Mrs. Corry:
I'm certain the ancient Greeks would have used it in their midst!

Mary Poppins:
I'm sure the Roman Empire only entered the abyss,
Because those Latin scholars never had a word like this!

Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Mary Poppins:
If you say it softly the effect can be hypnoscious!

Bert:
Check your breath before you speak, in case it's halitotious!

Ensemble:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye
Um-diddle-diddle-um-diddleye

Mary Poppins (spoken):
Of course you can say it backwards, which is Suoicodilaipxecitsiligarfilacrepus!

Michael (spoken):
She may be tricky, but she's bloody good!

Mary Poppins:
So when the cat has got your tongue, there's no need for dismay!
Just summon up this word and then you've got a lot to say!

Bert:
Pick out those eighteen consonants and sixteen vowels as well,
And put them in an order which is very hard to spell...

The only girl I've ever loved
Was born with roses in her eyes
But then they buried her alive
One evening 1945
With just her sister at her side
And only weeks before the guns
All came and rained on everyone
Now she's a little boy in Spain
Playing pianos filled with flames
On empty rings around the sun
All sing to say my dream has come

But now we must pack up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on

And now we ride the circus wheel
With your dark brother wrapped in white
Says it was good to be alive
But now he rides a comet's flame
And won't be coming back again
The Earth looks better from a star
That's right above from where you are
He didn't mean to make you cry
With sparks that ring and bullets fly
On empty rings around your heart
The world just screams and falls apart

But now we must pack up every piece
Of the life we used to love
Just to keep ourselves
At least enough to carry on

And here's where your mother sleeps
And here is the room where your brothers were born
Indentions in the sheets
Where their bodies once moved but don't move anymore
And it's so sad to see the world agree
That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes

Misschien is het handig als iedereen de uitvoerende artiest en titel bijzet.

Meat Puppets

Ah, Meat Puppets, daar noem je iets.

Please could you stop the noise, I'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)

When I am king, you will be first against the wall
With your opinion which is of no consequence at all
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)
What's that...? (I may be paranoid, but no android)

Ambition makes you look pretty ugly
Kicking and squealing gucci little piggy
You don't remember
You don't remember
Why don't you remember my name?
Off with his head, man
Off with his head, man
Why don't you remember my name?
I guess he does....

Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height... height...
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me

TThat's it, sir
You're leaving
The crackle of pigskin
The dust and the screaming
The yuppies networking
The panic, the vomit
The panic, the vomit
God loves his children, God loves his children, yeah!

Ik wil het niet voor je verpesten, maar het gaat over Anne Frank, dat je het weet...

Heel begrijpelijk dus...

Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

Iedereen weet dat het album over Anne Frank en de Holocaust gaat, maar kun jij de lyrics echt begrijpen? Hoezo zou Anne Frank opeens een kleine jongen in Spanje zijn? Wat hebben met sperma bespoten bergtoppen hiermee te maken?

ja, net zo begrijpelijk als Ulysses zonder Bloomsday book.

Maak hier maar een centraal Blof-topic van

Did everybody see this snowman
Standing in the wind alone?
When mother did that, pick his head
And you're feeling sleepy at.

It's my recording, stitch remain,
But I record in his head
Knowing that too big mouth,
Oh, ice can flow away, no one knows.

Oh, shadow coming out,
While I call the story, storey that.
Oh, sample all about,
Spinning that all the time.

My powers strike me out.
Did I slip this thing on their life?
And my God buying out,
Oh, it gets me inside.

Searching for my brother, yes, I am,
Searching for my brother, yes, I am,
Searching for my brother, yes, I am,
Searching for my brother, yes, I am.

Did you see the day?
Every fever may I search in.
We can find now harder steam,
Change his kind, fly away.

Oh,
They're all alone there, let me in.
Oh, she asked me the first day
For my name.
So she wasn't going where I was singing.
Mushroom head, oh yeah, paperhouse,
I went day, first the game.

It wasn't a game after this.

Oh, shadow coming out,
While I call the story, storey that.
Oh, it's all about,
Spinning that all the time.

Shoot all the proof and lust and shout and it's all, just you sow,
Shoot all the proof and lust and shout and it's all, just you sow,
Shoot all the proof and lust and shout and it's all, just you sow,
Shoot all the proof and lust and shout and it's all, just you sow.

Searching for my brother,
Searching for my brother, haleleleleleluhwah,
Searching for my brother, haleleleleleluhwah,
Searching for my brother, haleleleleleluhwah,
Searching for my brother, haleleleleleluhwah.

Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah.

Ash you
And the hills are blue,
And she's so.
Got my fever, why do I go?
Got my fever, why do I go?
Got your soles into your shoes.
Got my fever, why do I go?
Got my fever, why do I go?

Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
Halelelelelelelelelelela-leleleleleluhwah,
