Does this sound simple? Fuck you!

Why have some people Gaymonded this thread? THIS IS A SERIOUS SUBJECT.

Thank you.

PS: I think NYCGF generally has the best lyrics of all the albums.

You know, I adore that song....but only if I don't pay really close attention to the lyrics, which I think are ever so slightly lame. Is this blasphemy then?

summer 05.14.2009 12:48 AM

Yes, yes it is. Those are some of Thurston's best lyrics, assuming he wrote the song's lyrics, that is. We all know how much I hate his lyrics, so yeah.

Skuj 05.14.2009 12:55 AM

It's a bit Hallmark Cards for me, that one.

Oh fuck I'm going to get crucified for this.

pbradley 05.14.2009 01:36 AM

All of "I'm Insane."

Death & the Maiden 05.14.2009 01:59 AM

Their lyrics haven't ever really appealed to me. The one time they did, I'd misheard it. In Eric's Trip, there's the bit where Lee whispers "Mary" and then sings "a simple word"; I thought he'd whispered "Eerie", and I really liked it.

no...that lyrics are kind of cheesy and lame for Thurston I think. But I still like the song....a lot! I really just love listening to the noise on teh Destroyed Room CD.

Jesus had a twin who knew nothin' about sin.

greedrex 05.14.2009 01:53 PM

It's just a snare, girl
with all its manifestations


+ skip tracer: the whole song is epic lyrics-wise.

mattmacneil 05.14.2009 08:45 PM

Errr if people are intentionally using less common songs to sound more 'alt', then please excuse me, but I always loved

She says thinks she's a goddess, she says she talks to the spirits. I wonder if she can talk to herself, if she can bear to hear it.

Eric's Trip as a whole has really done something for me.
