Beck Lyrics

Can't Help Falling In Love lyrics - Beck

(originally by Elvis Presley)

Wise men say

Only fools rush in

But I can't help falling in love with you

Shall I stay?

Would it be a sin?

If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows

Surely to the sea

Darling, so it goes

Some things are meant to be

Take my hand

Take my whole life too

For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows

Surely to the sea

Darling, so it goes

Some things are meant to be

Take my hand

Take my whole life, too

For I can't help falling in love with you

Chain Reaction lyrics - Joy Downer & Beck

Are you, are you breaking down?

Or is it just the sound of your walls falling all around

I know - I know, it hurts to let it be

All the damage in you, is causing cracks in me

Chain reaction

You know I love you

You know I do

Wish I could fix it

But I'm broke in two

(But I'm broken too)

Tell me, tell me what you'd like

Tried to tell you the truth with my eyes about a hundred times

Driving, driving in your car

Coulda stayed right there forever as your passenger

Chain reaction

Reaction

You know I love you

You know I do

Wish I could fix it

But I'm broke in two

Chain reaction

You know you know you know you know

Chain reaction

You know you know you know you know

You know I love you

You know I do

I wanna fix it

But I'm broken too

Chain reaction

Defriended lyrics - Beck

Lay your arms down

Say your prayer

Live the day before you turn it

On and off

Live the day before you turn it

All around

Oh, Karen! (Turn it all around, whoa-oh-oh)

Why are you so confident?

Turn it all around

Garbage Truck lyrics - Beck

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" soundtrack)

(Woo oh oh oh)

I'll take you for a ride

On my garbage truck

Oh no!

I'll take you to the dump

'Cause you're my queen

Take you uptown

I'll show you the sights

You know you want to ride

On my garbage truck

Truck truck truck

We'll pass the mansions by

Drive right through the needle's eye (Oh my)

My my my my

I got a stereo

You just got to turn the knob

And baby we'll go

As far as we can

I'll be your garbage man

I'll take out your junk

And I'll crush it down

Jesus in my rearview

And the highway patrol is up ahead

In my garbage truck (truck)

I'll never throw you away

When you're old and grey

Just roll it away

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" soundtrack)

(Woo oh oh oh)

I'll take you for a ride

On my garbage truck

Oh no!

I'll take you to the dump

'Cause you're my queen

Take you uptown

You know you want to ride

On my garbage truck

And the highway patrol is up ahead

In my garbage truck (truck)

I'll never throw you away

When you're old and grey

Just roll it away

I Am The Cosmos (42420) lyrics - Beck

Every time I tell myself I am the cosmos

I am the wind

That don't get you back again

Just when I was starting to feel okay

You're on the phone

Never wanna be alone

I don't wanna have to take you home

You wanted too much to say now, now

Yeah, yeah, yeah

My feeling's always something I couldn't hide

I can't confide

Know what's going on inside

I just wanna see you again

I really wanna see you again

I just wanna see you again

I really wanna see you again

Ooh, I really wanna see you againEvery time I tell myself I am the cosmos

I am the wind

That don't get you back again

Just when I was starting to feel okay

You're on the phone

Never wanna be alone

I don't wanna have to take you home

You wanted too much to say now, now

Yeah, yeah, yeah

My feeling's always something I couldn't hide

I can't confide

Know what's going on inside

I just wanna see you again

I really wanna see you again

I just wanna see you again

I really wanna see you again

Ooh, I really wanna see you again

I Just Started Hating Some People Today lyrics - Beck (with Jack White)

[Beck vocals]

I just started to see the light of day

Some people say one thing but act the other way

Sooner or later, they'll give themselves away

And I just started to see the light of day

I just started hating some people today

Talking trash behind your back all day

Saying things that a garbageman would not say

I just started hating some people today

I just started wanting to kill someone

But I don't need a nunchuck or a gun

Just one look in my eye and you will run

I just started wanting to kill someone

I just started wanting to see you dead

This one half of the devil life that you live

I may be joking, you'll be choking instead

I just started wanting to see you dead

I just started wanting to punch your face

You might want to wear a helmet just in case

What was once your face is gonna be replaced

I just started wanting to punch your face

I just started hating some people today

Rick and Ford and Randy better run away (Randy)

Some others I don't even think I have to name

Cause I just started to see the light of day

[Punk vocals]

[Female vocals]

Oh, yeah

I'm gonna kill you

Oh, yeah

I'm gonna kill you, Randy

Skiddley-diddley-wow

I'm gonna watch you die

You're so dead

[Beck vocals]

I just started to see the light of day

Some people say one thing but act the other way

Sooner or later, they'll give themselves away

And I just started to see the light of day

I just started hating some people today

Talking trash behind your back all day

Saying things that a garbageman would not say

I just started hating some people today

I just started wanting to kill someone

But I don't need a nunchuck or a gun

Just one look in my eye and you will run

I just started wanting to kill someone

I just started wanting to see you dead

This one half of the devil life that you live

I may be joking, you'll be choking instead

I just started wanting to see you dead

I just started wanting to punch your face

You might want to wear a helmet just in case

What was once your face is gonna be replaced

I just started wanting to punch your face

I just started hating some people today

Rick and Ford and Randy better run away (Randy)

Some others I don't even think I have to name

Cause I just started to see the light of day

[Punk vocals]

[Female vocals]

Oh, yeah

I'm gonna kill you

Oh, yeah

I'm gonna kill you, Randy

Skiddley-diddley-wow

I'm gonna watch you die

You're so dead

I Won't Be Long lyrics - Beck

The time is almost over

The people are divided

So come a little closer

I try now I can’t fight it

Evoke the invective

Penetrate the malice

I’m counting down the minutes

From an hourglass full of ice

[Chorus:]

I won’t be long

I won’t be long, long, long

Can’t you hear the catchy station

Coming from another car?

Broken recognition

No one has a clue where we are

Cause things are getting scary

We’re covered in a secret

Buried in voluptuary

Cause there’s nowhere else to keep it

[Chorus]

Oh so silently we go

I'm Waiting For The Man lyrics - Beck

(originally by The Velvet Underground)

I'm waiting for my man

Got twenty-six dollars in my hand

Up to Lexington, 125

Feeling sick and dirty, more dead than alive

I'm waiting for my man

Up to a Brownstone, up three flights of stairs

Everybody's pinned you, but nobody cares

Pardon me sir, it's the furthest from my mind

I'm just waitin' for a dear, dear friend of mine

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting, waiting for my man

Here he comes, he's all dressed in black

PR shoes and a big straw hat

He's never early, he's always late

First thing you learn is you always gotta wait

I'm waiting for my man

Hey baby, don't you holler, don't you bawl and shout

I'm feeling good, I'm gonna work it on out

I'm feeling good, I'm feeling so fine

Until tomorrow, but that's just another time

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting, waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting, waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man

Waiting

I'm waiting for my man...

Looking For A Sign lyrics - Beck

If I ever think about you

If I ever call your name

And put my empty arms around you

Let the memory die away

Looking out for a sign

How can I tell what’s right

Changing my ways despite myself

Cause I still want you

If I ran across your picture

If I called you by mistake

And if I ask someone about you

It’s a habit I can’t break

Looking out for a sign

How can I tell what’s right

Changing my ways despite myself

Cause I still want you

MTV Makes Me Want To Smoke Crack lyrics - Beck

MTV makes me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never coming back

MTV makes me wanna get high

Can't get it right no matter how I try

Everything's perfect and everything's bright

And everyone's perky and everyone's uptight

I watch those videos, I watch them all day

And I plug 'em in my eyeballs, hey

And the colors are nice and the pictures are nice

And the girls are nice, everything's so nice and

MTV makes me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never coming back

MTV makes me wanna get high

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

Well, I work at the video store makin' change

And I'm countin' out the pennies, twistin' in my brain

Condos in the distance and smog in the air

No-one in the streets and no-one anywhere

And I drink when I drink and I eat from a can

And I'm standing by the microwave 'till I feel special!

And I'm checking out the furniture, I want to buy a sofa

I might buy a wheelchair and roll out of this town

And MTV made me wanna smoke crack

Fall out of the window and I'm never comin' back

MTV made me wanna get high

Can't get a ride, can't get a ride

MTV makes me wanna burn flesh

Have a little orgy down in that satellite dish

Odyssey lyrics - Beck & Phoenix

Take my time to find my mind

Don't have time to go back to zero

And wait for yesterday

Summer days, flowers waste

I'm on fire, welcome to your life

Don't look the other way

Wheels of fortune run the course across the track

If only I could feel the warmth across my back

Didn't I treasure most

Didn't I wreck the most

Didn't I feel this close

Don't look the other way

Somewhere

We'll fall into the ocean

I'll be there

On an odyssey in the sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, you might have to lose to win

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, you might have to lose to win

Before you came into the light

It was always so bright

And now I'm not trying to look the other way

Count to ten

Renovate my life

The savior a la mode

A photo op is imminent

Somewhere

We'll fall into the ocean

I'll be there

On an odyssey in the sun

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, you might have to lose to win

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, you might have to lose to win

A hornet's nest of blessings

I confess it's messing

With my mind the way

We live and die in a day, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Summer Odyssey, Summer Odyssey)

A catastrophic longing

All these thoughts are dawning

Lost inside the gnawing feeling

I'm not okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (An odyssey, tell me all you see)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (An odyssey, tell me all you see)

(An odyssey, Summer Odyssey)

(An odyssey, tell me all you see)

Somewhere

We'll fall into the ocean

I'll be there

On an odyssey in the sun

Somewhere

We'll fall into the ocean

I'll be there

On an odyssey in the sun

Old Man lyrics - Beck

(originally by Neil Young)

One, two

One, two, three

Old man, look at my life

I'm a lot like you were

Old man, look at my life

I'm a lot like you were

Old man, look at my life

Twenty-four and there's so much more

Live alone in a paradise

That makes me think of two

Love lost, such a cost

Give me things that don't get lost

Like a coin that won't get tossed

Rolling home to you

Old man, take a look at my life. I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true

Lullabies, look in your eyes

Run around the same old town

Doesn't mean that much to me

To mean that much to you

I've been first and last

Look at how the time goes past

But I'm all alone at last

Rolling home to you

Old man, take a look at my life. I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me the whole day through

Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true

Old man, look at my life

I'm a lot like you were

Old man look at my life

I'm a lot like you were

Ramona lyrics - Beck

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" soundtrack)

There's nothing left to hide;

You can see it in my eyes.

Oh I've tried, to be who I thought you wanted.

And if it's all a lie,

The truth's not far behind.

We could try to live right follow the moment.

Ramona!

Ramona... Oh, oh.

Ramona.

If only I had known,

It's less than what I felt,

Why should I have nothing to fear for?

Ramona...

Ramona... Oh, oh.

Ramona.

Ramona! Oh oh,

Ramona! Oh my,

Ramona!

Ramona! Oh,

Ramona!

Summertime lyrics - Beck

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" soundtrack)

I peeled off my face, I tore up my room

I read my own rights and I filled them with glue

I turned the commercial into a creep show

I peeped at the Gods with their bodies all day-glow

It's summertime

And it's the time

To strut and strum

I'm gonna strut strut strut

I'm combing my braids, I'm sneezing my brains

Drinking shampoo and I'm tasting my grave

I'm wearing myself inside out

And I'm wearing my welcome inside out

It's summertime

And it's the time

To strut my stuff

Woo!

People getting touchy when I touch my thighs

And take a vacation under friendly skies

With my peacock heart, I want to grunt and groan

Cut and paste all I've ever known

It's summertime

And it's that time

To strut and strum

I'm gonna strut my stuff

Oh oh oh oh oh

With my peacock hands and my tangerine skulls

And my grizzly bear face and my voice from Target

Summertime

Gonna strut my stuff

I'm gonna strut strut

Going backwards in time

With my questionable eyes

And I'm drinking my grave

And I stood on my face

Summertime lyrics - Beck

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" soundtrack)

I peeled off my face, I tore up my room

I read my own rights and I filled them with glue

I turned the commercial into a creep show

I peeped at the Gods with their bodies all day-glow

It's summertime

And it's the time

To strut and strum

I'm gonna strut strut strut

I'm combing my braids, I'm sneezing my brains

Drinking shampoo and I'm tasting my grave

I'm wearing myself inside out

And I'm wearing my welcome inside out

It's summertime

And it's the time

To strut my stuff

Woo!

People getting touchy when I touch my thighs

And take a vacation under friendly skies

With my peacock heart, I want to grunt and groan

Cut and paste all I've ever known

It's summertime

And it's that time

To strut and strum

I'm gonna strut my stuff

Oh oh oh oh oh

With my peacock hands and my tangerine skulls

And my grizzly bear face and my voice from Target

Summertime

Gonna strut my stuff

I'm gonna strut strut

Going backwards in time

With my questionable eyes

And I'm drinking my grave

And I stood on my face

Super Cool lyrics - Beck (feat. Robyn & The Lonely Island)

(from "The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part" soundtrack)

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

We gotta bring both sides together

Like champagne and leather

Like birds of a feather, we'll fly

Like rain on a sunny day

Like a million dollars that you're givin' away

Like a stray dog on the freeway, we'll fly

'Cause we're all like a team

Livin' inside a dream

You and me doin' our thing

And we'll fly, woo-hoo

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

It's the credits, yeah that's the best part

When the movie ends and the reading starts

You can keep your adventure and all that action

'Cause the credits of the film are the main attraction

And don't even think about tryna leave

Or you might miss a name like Pam and Steve

Both incredible names so let's stay in our seats

And read incredible lists of their incredible feats

'Cause we're all like a team

Livin' inside a dream

You and me doin' our thing

And we'll fly, woo-hoo

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

And we're back, and still lovin' the credits

Can't wait to see the one about the person who edits

And even better than that is who edits the credits

I bet I'll never forget 'cause once I read it then I read it

I drove to the theater about 90 minutes late

Skip the whole dang movie 'cause the credits are great

Now if you're gonna be featured on a movie song

The credits is the part that you wanna be on

Unbelievable, super cool, outrageous and amazing

Phenomenal, fantastic, so incredible, woo-hoo!

Everything is super cool right now

Everything is awesome here right now

Everything is super cool right now

Everything is awesome here right now

Everything is super cool right now

Everything is awesome here right now

Everything is super cool right now

Everything is awesome here right now

take it back (Remix) lyrics - JAWNY & Beck

I'm on the run with all the things that's we had

And I wish that I could tell you that it wasn't that bad

In a car that's full of memories of things in the past

Got a trunk full of forgotten love my foots on the gas

So I, I take it back, I take it back now

I, I take it back, I take it all back

I, I take it back, I take it back now

If she never loved me then I'm better off alone ya

I, I take it back, I take it back now

I, I take it back, I take it all back

I, I take it back I take it back now

If she never loved me then I'm better off alone ya

Driving backwards through a hole in the sun

100 mph and I'm feeling so numb

Don't know how I got here, there was nowhere to run

Gotta find a way to get away from this love

So I, I take it back, I take it back now

I, I take it back, I take it all back

I, I take it back I take it back now

If she never loved me then I'm better off alone ya

I, I take it back, I take it back now

I, I take it back, I take it all back

I, I take it back I take it back now

If she never loved me then I'm better off alone ya

I, I take it back, I take it back now

I, I take it back, I take it all back

I, I take it back I take it back now

If she never loved me then I'm better off alone ya

Tarantula lyrics - Beck

(originally by This Mortal Coil)

I'm living but I'm feeling numb

Can see it in my stare

I wear a mask so falsely now

And I don't know who I am

Despite the worlds inside of me

Cursing me away

I've noticed in others' eyes

That time is closing in

And when the thunder breaks

It breaks for you and me

Tarantula, tarantula

The future's looking rather grim

A strange black tide

Decisions lie with foolish men

Along with my life

They're choking and holding me

Expecting me to fall

But only if I'm threatened

We'll see the tables turn

And when the thunder breaks

It breaks for you and me

Tarantula, tarantula

Our world is under a sentence of death

I was born underground

But when the pressure gets too much for me

I bite

Tarantula, tarantula

Teenage Wastebasket lyrics - Beck

She is a teenage wastebasket

Paddling up the river in a casket

Trying to experience everything at least once

Her life is a commercial for being fucked up

I know she's not saying much

She's got class, she's got a crush

Socks don't matter, teeth are turning green

Opinions are forming

Ah ooh wa ooh, ah ooh wa ooh

Her mother is proud to be dead

Her dad is breakdancing underneath the bed

She's got lipstick scrawled across her forehead

Saying "Please Destroy Me"

Ah ooh wa ooh, ah ooh wa ooh

The Paisley Experience lyrics - Beck

(originally by Prince)

["Raspberry Beret"]

Ayy

Four, three, two, one

I was workin' part time at a five-and-dime

My boss was Mr. McGee

He told me several times that he didn't like my kind

'Cause I lived too leisurely

I was busy doin' somethin', somethin' close to nothin'

Different than the day before

Now that's when I saw her, woo, I saw her

She walked in through the out door, out door

She wore a raspberry beret

The kind you find at a secondhand store

It was a raspberry beret

If it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more

It was a raspberry beret

I think I love her

["When Doves Cry"]

Dig, if you will, a picture

Of you and I engaged in a kiss

The sweat of your body covers me

Can you, my darlin', can you picture this?

How can you just leave me standin'

Alone in a world that's so cold?

Maybe I'm just too demanding

Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold

Maybe you're just like my mother

She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied)

Why do we scream at each other?

This is what it sounds like when doves cry

Woohoo

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

["Kiss"]

Ayy

Don't have to be beautiful to turn me on

I just need your body, baby, from dusk 'til dawn

You don't need experience to turn me out

You just leave it all up to me, I'll show you what it's all about

You don't have to be rich to be my girl

You don't have to be cool to rule my world

Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with

I just want your extra time and your kiss

Woah

Hey, hey

["1999"]

I was dreamin' when I wrote this

Forgive me if it goes astray

When I woke up this mornin'

Coulda sworn it was judgment day

The sky was all purple

There were people runnin' everywhere

Tryin' to run from my destruction

You know I didn't even care (Hey, say, say)

Two-thousand-zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time

So tonight, we're gonna party like it's nineteen-ninety-nine (Ayy)

Two-thousand-zero-zero, party over, oops, out of time (Yeah)

So tonight, I'm gonna party like it's nineteen-ninety-nine (Ayy)

1999

1999 (Yeah, yeah)

1999 (Woohoo, ooh)

Don't you wanna go?

The Way It Seems lyrics - Beck

Last night I heard you were going

Going for a stay

Bound for some other shore

To let your garbage lay

And now you're running backwards

Right into your grief

Gathering your weapons

Rippin' 'em with your teeth

And that's so unexciting

And that's the way it seems

Sooner we'll be done for

Somewhere in between

Slick and dark and hungry

It's the only game in town

Gamble in a no-man's land

Rippin' faces down

The flames shooting outward

Everywhere you are

The temperature is a-blazing

Turning tricks and cards

And that's so unexciting

And that's the way it seems

Sooner we'll be done for

Somewhere in between

Thinking About You lyrics - Beck

I pull the curtains

And lay in bed

I've got 15 movies of you

Playing in my head

Chasing the moonlight

Watching the ocean turn blue

Just thinking about you

Thinking about you

40 roses

Couldn't cover my grave

No cross and rosary

For my soul to save

Want to believe in something

And it don't even have to be true

Just thinking about you

Thinking about you

There's a crossroads

I've been standing on

But it was just the back road to Babylon

And she's gone

Wayward angel

Morning dove

Don't treat me like a stranger

On the other side of love

I crossed seven oceans

And painted your highway blue

Just thinking about you

Thinking about you

There's a high road

I've been standing on

But it was just a back road to Babylon

And she's gone

She's gone

Threshold lyrics - Beck

(from "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" soundtrack)

This is the beginning of the song...

I'm hearing voices, animal noises

The crème de la crème, the feminine abyss

And I'm reaching my threshold

Staring at the truth 'till I'm blind

My body's stupid, stereo putrid

Spilling out music into raw sewage

Reaching my threshold

Staring at the truth 'till I'm blind

My threshold

Reaching my threshold

I'm hearing voices, animal noises

The crème de la crème, the feminine abyss

And I'm reaching my threshold

Staring at the truth 'till I'm blind

My threshold

I'll explode

Reaching my threshold

(My threshold)

My threshold

(My threshold)

My threshold

(Reaching my threshold)

My threshold

To See That Woman Of Mine lyrics - Beck

Put whiskey in the gas tank

Put blood on the wheels

I gotta jar of tobacco

And I'm down with the deal

Well I know that I'm loaded

And I'm outta my mind

I gotta make it to Texas

To see that woman of mine

Well my face is all bloodshot

There's a stain on my shirt

If I don't make it to Fort Worth

Someone's bound to get hurt

Yeah

Well I know I'm loaded

And I'm outta my mind

Gotta make it to Texas

To see that woman of mine

Well I blew out the engine

Down in Abilene

And I got on the school bus

I started revvin' that thing

Yeah I know that I'm loaded

Yeah I'm outta my mind

I gotta make it to Texas

To see that woman of mine

You've Got A Woman lyrics - Natalie Bergman & Beck

(originally by Lion)

Working on this dream with you, oh baby

Want to spend my life with you, oh baby

I can see the stars all shining

You and me could be

Happy like the bees together

You've got a woman

Woman, woman, woman

(Always on my mind)

Woman, woman, woman

(Always on my mind)

I can feel so free with you, oh baby (Baby, baby, baby)

Love you more and more each day, oh baby (Baby, baby, baby)

You just have to hold on me

Trust in me, I'll set you free

Come along and follow me, baby

You've got a woman

(Woman, woman, woman)

Working on this dream with you, oh baby (Baby, baby, baby)

(Woman, woman, woman)

Want to spend my life with you, oh baby (Baby, baby, baby)

I can see the stars all shining

You and me could be

Happy like the bees together

You've got a woman

You've got a woman (Baby, baby, baby) (Baby, baby, baby)

(Baby, baby, baby) (Baby, baby, baby)

You've got a woman

(Baby, baby, baby)

In the time of chimpanzees
I was a monkey
Butane in my veins
So I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs,
Spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights
And put it in neutral
Stock car flaming' with a loser
And the cruise control
Baby's in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches,
Sleep on the love seat
Someone keeps saying'
I'm insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding
And a stain on my shirt
Don't believe everything that you breathe
You get a parking violation
And a maggot on your sleeve
So shave your face
With some mace in the dark
Saving' all your food stamps
And burning' down the trailer park

(Yo. Cut it.)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

(Double-barrel buckshot)

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare
Banned all the music with a phony gas chamber
'Cuz one's got a weasel
And the other's got a flag
One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag
With the rerun shows
And the cocaine nose-job
The daytime crap of the folksinger slop
He hung himself with a guitar string
Slap the turkey-neck
And it's hanging' from a pigeon wing
You can't write if you can't relate
Trade the cash for the beef
For the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax
Falling' on a termite
Who's choking' on the splinters
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(Get crazy with the cheeze whiz)
Soy un perdedor*
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(Drive-by body-pierce)
(Yo, bring it on down)
Soooooooyy....
[Chorus backwards]
(I'm a driver; I'm the winner;
Things are gonna change
I can feel it)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(I can't believe you)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
[Repeat]
(Sprechen sie Deutsch, baby?)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(Know what I'm saying'?)

Pay No Mind (Snoozer) Lyrics - Beck

(This is song two on the album
This is the album right here
Put on the album)

Tonight the city is full of morgues
And all the toilets are overflowing
There's shopping malls
Coming out of the walls
As we walk out among the manure

That's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

Give the finger to the rock 'n' roll singer
As he's dancing upon your paycheck
The sales climb high
Through the garbage-pail sky
Like a giant dildo crushing the sun

That's why
I pay no mind
Sleep in slime
I just got signed

So get out your lead-pipe pipe dreams
Get out your ten-foot flags
The insects are huge
And the poison's all been used
And the drugs won't kill your day job
Honey

That's why
I pay no mind
I pay no mind
I pay no mind

That's why
I pay no mind [x7]

Fuckin' With My Head (Mountain Dew Rock) Lyrics - Beck

I ain't got no inclination
Give away my sweet sensation
Sleeping' in an old tool shed
Scumbag crying' on his pillow

[Backing vocals:] Ooh...
When you wanna be with me then we will see
Who's fuckin' with my head
Hey hey hey hey
Fuckin' with my head
Hey hey hey hey

Found myself in New Orleans
With a scarecrow in my jeans
Feed my forehead through the ceiling'
Drank my coffee with a hubcap
Yeah

[Backing vocals:] Ooh...
When you want to be with me then we will see
Who's fuckin' with my head
No no no no
Fuckin' with my head
Hey hey hey hey

Devil's got your pantyhose on his head
Oh yeah, and he's robbing' me
But all I got's is cornbread
Well, you turn my body into a crutch
And now I'm limping' all over
When I feel your touch
Oh yeah

Ooh...
Ooh...

Put on my jack-eyed boots
Running' wild on the bayou
Now I'm talking' on a walkie-talkie
Credit card glued to my hand
Feels good

[Backing vocals:] Ooh...
When you wanna be with me then we will see
Who's fuckin' with my head
Hey hey hey hey
No no no no
Fuckin' with my head
Make me feel like an asshole
I ain't got no soul
I ain't got no soul
No no no no
No no no no
No no no no
No no no no

Whiskeyclone, Hotel City 1997 Lyrics - Beck

(One more time..)

I was born in this hotel
Washing' dishes in the sink
Magazines and free soda
Trying hard not to think

Lay it on to the dawn
Everything we done is wrong
I'll be lonesome when I'm gone
Lay it on to the dawn

She can talk to squirrels...oh, ho yeah
Coming' back from the convalescent home
...Oh...
Staring' at sports cars ... crying'

Rattlesnake on the ceiling'
Gunpowder on my sleeve
I will live here forever
With the ocean and the bees

Lay it on to the dawn
Everything we done is wrong
I'll be lonesome when I'm gone
Lay it on to the dawn

Lay it on to the dawn

Soul Suckin' Jerk Lyrics - Beck

I got a job making money for the man
Throwing chicken in the bucket
With the soda pop can
Puke green uniform on my back
I had to set it on fire
In a vat of chicken fat
I leaped on the counter
Like a bird with no hair
Running through the mini mall in my underwear

I got lost downtown
Couldn't find a ride home
Sun went down I got frozen to the bone
'Til a hooker let me share
Her fake fur coat
As I took a little nap
The cops picked up us both
I tried to explain
I was only trying to get warm
I knew I never ever
Should have burnt my uniform
He said:
'Too bad, better bite the bullet hard son'
I didn't have no teeth so I stole his gun
And I crawled out the window
With my shadow on a spoon
Dancing on the roof
Shooting holes in the moon

Get busy, get busy, you know it

I ain't gonna work for no soul sucking jerk
I'm gonna take it all back
And I ain't saying jack
I ain't gonna work for no soul sucking jerk
I'm gonna take it all back
And I ain't saying jack

Standing right here with a beer in my hand
And my mouth is full of sand
And I don't understand
Fourteen days I been sleeping in a barn
Better get a paycheck tattooed on my arm
Whistling Dixie with the Dixie cup filled
With the barbecue sauce
And the dental floss chill
Big fat fingers pointing into my face
Telling me to get busy
Cleaning up this place
I got bent like a wet cigarette
And she's coming after me
With a butterfly net
Riding on a bloodhound ringing the bell
Black cat wrapped in the road map to hell

Pencil on my leg and I'm trying not to beg
Taking turns baking worms
With the bacon and eggs
Well they got me in a birdcage
Flapping my jaw like a pretzel
In the stars just waiting to fall
So give me what I got to get so I can go
Cause I ain't washing dishes
In the ditch no more

And I ain't gonna work
For no soul sucking jerk
I'm gonna take it all back
And I ain't saying jack
And I ain't gonna work
For no soul sucking jerk
I'm gonna take it all back
And I ain't saying jack

Truckdrivin' Neighbors Downstairs (Yellow Sweat) Lyrics - Beck

[Neighbor 1:] "Come on, motherfucker. Put your clothes on, come on. Asshole!"
[Neighbor 2:] "You lousy puke!"
[Neighbor 3:] "Fuck you!"
[Neighbor 2:] "Why don't you call your mommy?"
[Neighbor 3:] "You're a fucking drunk."
[Neighbor 2:] "Yeah, I'm a fucking drunk..."
[Neighbor 1:] "Come on, motherfucker."
[Neighbor 2:] "...But you're a lousy lowlife who can't do nothing' for himself."

Acid casualty with a repossessed car
Vietnam vet playing' air guitar

It's just the shit-kicking', speed-taking'
Truck-driving' neighbors downstairs
Yeah...yeah

Whiskey-stained buck-toothed
Backwards creep
Grizzly bear motherfucker
Never goes to sleep

It's just the shit-kicking', speed-taking'
Truck-driving' neighbors downstairs
Oh, yeah...yeah

Belly flopping' naked
In a pool of yellow sweat
Screaming' jackass with a wet cigarette

It's just the shit-kicking', speed-taking'
Truck-driving' neighbors downstairs

Oh
Oh, my goodness
Oh...
Mmm...

Psychotic breakdown double-edged axe
Growing' hair like a shag rug
On his greasy back

It's just the shit-kicking', speed-taking'
Truck-driving' neighbors downstairs

Oh my goodness
Oh my goodness

Oh, yeah
Come on, honey
Feel the grease, grease, grease
Come on, honey, feel the grease
Oh, my goodness
Come on, honey, feel the grease
Oh yeah
Come on, lay it on me
Bring it down one more time
Come on, honey...

Sweet Sunshine Lyrics - Beck

Judge me on the inside
With a finger full of gravy
Wanna get you on the sofa,
Lady, wanna Shake and Bake me
Pocket full of blood
And gotcha on a mound
I'm gonna break my face
On the sweet sunshine
Pocket full of blood
Gotcha on a mound
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil
And get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
Hollow full of bread
With your husband dreaming'
We are skunk and soul
And I found it on a screaming
Grab your wine, tell me where you been
With the violin crime
And the moon gettin' thin
Grab your wine; take me where you been
With the violin time
And the moon gettin' thin
I wanna climb up on the rug
I wanna swing through the city
On a wrecking' ball
I wanna climb up on the rug
I wanna swing through the city
On a wrecking' ball
Lay on to the dawn another pitiful sensation
Cause diamond full of salad
And I kill my master nation
Got a bucket full of blood
Dancing' on the mound
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
Bucket full of blood
Dancing' on the mound
Gonna break my face on the sweet sunshine
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil
And get me some more
I wanna get up off the floor
I wanna run to the devil
And get me some more

Beercan Lyrics - Beck

Alcohol on my hands
I got plans
To ditch myself and get outside
Dancing women
Throwing plates
Decapitating their laughing dates
Swirling chickens caught in flight
Out of focus
Much too bright
Coming down
Shiny teeth
Game shows suckers trying to bleed
But I got a drug and I got the bug
And I got something better than love

How you like me now
Pretty good
Going on, feeling strong

I quit my job blowing leaves
Telephone bills up my sleeves
Choking like a one man dustbowl
Freedom rock slime ball
Talking in code
We went down
Lit up the shack
Grab me a beer out of the sack
Everybody bent over twice
Painting the walls throwing some dice
Leaping up into the air getting juiced up beyond belief
And they were singing like this

Winos throwing Frisbees at the sun
Put my soul between a bun
Now I'm hungry now I'm drunk
Now I'm running like a flaming pig

Oh yeah
Scraping off the attitude
Old man eating all my food
Don't be kind
Don't be rude
Just shake your boots and let it all get loose

Oh yeah
My goodness

Fluffy clouds
Jumping rainbows
Fluffy clouds
I'm sad
Jumping rainbows
A soft and snuggly place
[Repeat]
Fluffy clouds
I'm sad and unhappy

Winos throwing Frisbees at the sun
Put my soul between a bun
Now I'm horny now I'm drunk
Now I'm running like a flaming pig

Oh yeah, I like it like that
Oh that is cold
Somebody put a flame-thrower on that
Oh my goodness
Take me down to the depot
Buddy put me down on the bus
Oh yeah
I like it like that
Somebody bring me a plate of sassafras
Hey hey hey
Uh-huh
What's happening'

Steal My Body Home Lyrics - Beck

Put me in a hole in the ground
With the money and the towel
And the women all running' around

Can't complain about the mess
Momma killed the only dress
Now she's longing' for the pines

Watch my troubles all unwind
Drinking' gasoline and wine
Catch a chill off the stove

On the train they cannot feel
Lost my head beneath the wheel
Now she steals my body home

The trees are fake, the air is dead
The birds are stuffed with poison lead
And the ground is much too clean

And if it's only me who's scared
Strap 'em to the electric chairs
Ring the moon like a broken bell

When she drags you from the hill
Daddy's gonna burn down the still
We can watch it from the rooftop

Lay in to the frying' pan
Now she kisses her own hand
With the fiddle on the fire

I took a leap into the fog
Sleeping' on a hollow log
Now I'm coughing' with no mouth

You can keep yourself inside
But you know you cannot lie
When the devil's your only friend

Nitemare Hippy Girl Lyrics - Beck

She took me off my guard with disappointment
I got sucked inside of her apartment
She's got dried-up flowers, flaky skin
A beaded necklace and a bottle of gin

She's a nightmare Hippy girl
With her skinny fingers fondling' my world
She's a whimsical, tragically beauty
Self-conscious and a little bit moody

It's a new age letdown in my face
She's so spaced out and there ain't no space
She's got marijuana on the bathroom tile
I'm caught in a vortex
She's changing' my style

She's a nightmare Hippy girl
With her skinny fingers fondling' my world
She's a whimsical, tragically beauty
Uptight and a little bit snooty

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

She's a magical, sparkling' tease
She's a rainbow choking' the breeze
Yo, she's busting' out onto the scene
With nightmare bogus poetry
She's a melted avocado on the shelf
She's the science of herself
She's spazzing out on a cosmic level
And she's meditating with the devil
She's cooking salad for breakfast
She's got tofu the size of Texas
She's a witness to her own glory
She's a never-ending story
She's a frolicking depression
She's a self-inflicted obsession
She's got a thousand lonely husbands
She's playing' footsie in another dimension
She's a goddess milking her time
For all that it's worth

Mutherfuker Lyrics - Beck

Yo homey don't play that game

Hey mister asshole what's your dirty hassle
Sitting in your castle judging everyone
You're acting like it's chill when the deal's getting ill
Why don't you break your face on my head

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker
Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Total paranoia trying to annoy you
Everything i do is to try and fuck you up
Screwdrivers drillin' and I was such a spasm
Dropped yourself on the situation, dude

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker
Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Blackhole Lyrics - Beck

Windy
Windy
Looking for a better home
Gotta be
Gotta be
Running out of light bulbs
Crowded
Crowded
Open to a waste can
Yellow car
Yellow car
Better be inside there
Wake up
Wake up
Nothing's gonna harm you
Glass wall
Glass wall
Standing on the furniture
Little boy
Little boy
Laying on a sleeping bag
Watching
Watching
Through the cracks of his eyelids
Stranger
Stranger
Feeling like a broken stone
Lost him
Lost him
Standing on the orange chairs
Alphabet
Alphabet
Can't afford a telephone
Black hole
Black hole
Nothing's gonna harm you

"Stereopathetic Soulmanure" (1994)

Pink Noise (Rock Me Amadeus) Lyrics - Beck

The tortures, the torment
Pink noise, delicious
The danger, the victims
Demeaning religion
She rides, she rolls
Olympic control
Her bricks assaultin'
The wrestlers are rotten

Rowboat Lyrics - Beck

Rowboat, row me to the shore
She don't wanna be my friend no more
She dug a hole in the bottom of my soul
She don't wanna be my friend no more

Pick me up, gimme some food to eat
In your truck, goin' no place
I'll be home, talkin' to nobody
You'll be strange, you'll be far away

Big fat moon
And my body's out of tune
With the burnin' waves
She's a billion years away
Dog food on the floor
And I been like this before
She is all
And everything else is small

Pick me up, gimme some alcohol
In your truck, playin' the radio
I'll be home with the gasoline
You'll be stoned, you'll be far away

Rowboat, row me to the shore
She don't wanna be my friend no more
She dug a hole in the bottom of my soul
She is all and everything else is small

Thunder Peel Lyrics - Beck

It's a cold ass fashion when she stole my passion
It's an everlasting, it's a ghettoblasting
On the wonderwheel I let my thunder peel
I made an effort to get just what I deserve

I got all maxed out, I got faxed some doubt
I was jumping around, she was a runnin' coming down
In the thick of a trick, I couldn't take my pick
Between a slime and a fist just to cool off your dog
I'm taking morphine

Now I'm rolling in sweat
With a loaf of cold bread
And a taco in my jeans
On the map if you glide
She's got such ugly thighs
I got taken by surprise
With the plate of flaming noodles

It's a cold ass fashion when she stole my passion
It's an everlasting, it's a ghettoblasting
On the wonderwheel I let my thunder peel
I made an effort to get just what I deserve

Waitin' For A Train Lyrics - Beck

I'm an alien from another sphere.
The thing I like about the earth is the range of colors.
Fantastic to mundane. Brilliant to dull.
As I was penetrating the ozone, I perchanced to notice the orange peel-like quality of the light playing upon the... the ocean.
I gotta go right now; someone is videotaping me in my spaceship.

All around a water tank
Just a-waitin' for a train
A thousand miles away from home
Just a-waitin' for'n the rain
I walked up to a breakman
Just to give him a line of talk
He said, "If you got money,
I'll see that you don't walk."
"I haven't got a nickel;
Not a penny for to show."
"Get off, get off, you railroad bum!"
And he slammed the boxcar door
They let me off in Texas
A state I dearly love
The moon, the stars above me... and what else?

The Spirit Moves Me Lyrics - Beck

Walkin' back to the burnin' schoolhouse
And the kids drinkin' in the park
Late at night and the spirit moves me
And I don't mind bein' afraid
Old man with no clothes
Leanin' on my fence
Tell me where the money goes
And the food don't taste the same
I'm gettin' fast at being the last
To know I don't need to waste no time
You can call me once a week
Tell me where I been
Phony lady layin' flat on the road
And the helicopter goin' by
And I'm down to the sound
Of the sky turned brown
And I'm lovin' everything you say
I don't think it's funny
When you shave both of my arms
Lately I been spittin' out things
That I didn't mean to say
But that's alright, now
You don't listen to me anyway

Crystal Clear (Beer) Lyrics - Beck

Plastic donut, can of spam
There's no kindness in this land
Better not let my good girl catch you here
She's getting all juiced up with a bottle of plain wrap beer

Coffee clothing pasted on
Clean my gravestone when I'm gone
And you better not let my good girl catch you here
She's got a whole pile of things you don't want to hear

Hitch my horse up to the town
Got my toenails painted brown
And you better not let my good girl catch you here
She'll cut you down and put the blame on me

Just a muscle in a bag
Throw my baby, don't let her sag
But you better not let my good girl catch you here
She's getting all juiced up with a bottle of plain wrap beer

No Money No Honey Lyrics - Beck

No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
Ain't no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No honey, no honey
No honey, no money
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey

One more time
Keep goin'
One more time

No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey
No money, no honey

What's your name?
My name's Ken

One Foot In The Grave Lyrics - Beck

There's s dead hobo on the patio
And an old barbed wire on the funeral fire
Well, you roll out the carpet and it better be red
And it better be long cos the troubles in my head
Gonna be livin' one foot in the grave

Well, I was sittin' at home cookin' up a steak
Satan came down dressed like a snake
Well, he called my name as I turned up the flames
And then I realized I was out of mayonnaise
Well, you been livin' one foot in the grave

Yeah, don't go throwin' no coupons on my grave
Don't go carvin' no happy face on my tombstone

Aphid Manure Heist Lyrics - Beck

Amanda, light of the man's life
Make sure the faith in the light and make heard
The greatest woman
The greatest woman
To be the man's greatest wife

I thought it all over, lord knows I've tried
It's a awful great struggle in any man's life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the great hair on her shoulders
And the great big big beautiful beautiful eyes

Aman...

Today Has Been A Fucked Up Day Lyrics - Beck

Today has been a fucked up day
Today has been a fucked up day
Today has been a fucked up day
Looks like tomorrow'll be the same old day

Today has been a fucked up day
Today has been a fucked up day
Today has been a fucked up day
Looks like tomorrow'll be the same old day

There's people runnin' up and down the line
With grocery bags on their heads
And dollar bills pasted onto their faces
Squeegees in their hand

Rollins Power Sauce Lyrics - Beck

You tell no-one, nobody
Beating on you, no defenses
False faces, bloody wallet
Ripping out your head, put on my clothes
No, I wouldn't want you
Where the blood is all washed off
Where the blood is washed off
And I got no focus, got no focus

Puttin It Down Lyrics - Beck

Big pain burnin' now
Givin' me a cow
What you seem to be saying
Is you're patiently waiting
Like an ashtray for the butt

Well I'm puttin' it down
When you're not picking it up
When I'm puttin' it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't want to be funny

Fat chance glued to the wall
Like a centerfold
Of an old cannonball
Will you put me inside
Your tv tonight
Cos you're treatin' me like a rerun

Well I'm puttin' it down
But you're not pickin' it up
Well I'm puttin' it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't want to be funny
No no no no no

So what
I lost my job at the Hut
My ass got cut
But I'll be better at kissin'
When my teeth are all missin'
And the silverware's burnt
And I'm eatin' with my fingers

And I'm puttin' it down
And you're not pickin' it up
Well I'm puttin it down
But you treat me like a clown
And I don't want to be funny
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

11.6.45'Lyrics - Beck

It's uhh November 6th, 1945 and we ... went up to ...
and uhh, back to the house and watched MTV ... and playin' Pac-Man ...
it's all really gross and all the kids were diseased ...
giant airplanes, uh, crashing underneath ... electro-magnetic fuse ...
guys with flamethrowers ... melting ... taco trucks were crashed...
there was sausage meat all over the ... Sasquatch was eating a burrito

Cut 1/2 Blues Lyrics - Beck

I thought I heard a chainsaw revvin late last night
I woke this morning and I knew I was right

I got the cut-in-half blues
The cut-in-half blues
Well the last thing I saw was the big long saw
I got the cut-in-half blues

I knew we were in trouble, I knew she lost her head
When she started bringin' all those power tools to bed

I got the cut-in-half blues
The cut-in-half blues
Well the last thing I saw was the big long saw
I got the cut-in-half blues

I'm laying in my grave, all I do is grunt
'Cause the undertaker got all mixed up and put my ass in the front

I got the cut-in-half blues
The cut-in-half blues
Well the last thing I saw was the big long saw
I got the cut-in-half blues

The microphone is in flames
There's a giant chicken claw above your head

Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy

Dead Wild Cat Lyrics - Beck

I'm sitting on an embankment on a highway going through rural Georgia...
and there was a dead wild cat and a bottle of beer that had been...
that had never been opened... and I drank the beer

Satan Gave Me A Taco Lyrics - Beck

Satan gave me a taco and it made me really sick
The chicken was all raw and the grease was mighty thick
The rice was all rancid and the beans were so hard
I was gettin' kinda dizzy eatin' all the lard
There was aphids on the lettuce an' I ate every one
An' after I was done the salsa melted off my tongue
Pieces of tortilla got stuck in my throat
An' the stains on my clothes burned a hole through my coat
My stomach was a-tremblin' and I broke out in a rash
I was so dry and thirsty and I didn't have no cash
So I went and found a hose, tore off all my clothes
Turned on the water and it shot right up my nose
Some old lady came along and she thought I was a freak
So she beat me with a handbag till I could hardly speak
I was lying there naked, my body badly bruised
In a pool of my own blood, unconscious and confused
Well, the cops came and got me and threw me in their van
And I woke up on the ceiling and I couldn't find my hand
They took me to the judge, his eyes a-glowin' red
The courtroom was filled with witches and the dead
Well, the sheriff was a hellhound with fangs and claws
The prisoners were tied up and chained to the walls
The air was gettin' thick; the smoke was gettin' thicker
The judge read the verdict: said, "Cut off his head!"
Well, they placed me on the altar, and they raised up the axe
My head was about to explode when I noticed the Marshall stacks
I noticed all the smoke machines, cameras and the lights
Some guy with a microphone, runnin' around dancin' in tights
And I noticed the crew and the band playin' down below
And I realized I was in a rock video

So I went and joined the band and I went out on tour
And I smoked a lot of heroin and I passed out in manure
I made out with the groupies, started fires backstage
I made a lot of money and I gave it all away
Well, the band got killed, so I started a solo career
And I won all the awards and I drank all the beer
I opened up a taco stand just to smell the smell
Cookin' with the devil, fryin' down in hell

8.4.82' Lyrics - Beck

Tasergun Lyrics - Beck

I got a room down in Hollywood
Rent was cheap
It was this rooming house
There was an old man who lived in the room next to me
We shared a bathroom in the hall
Stare at me through a crack in the door
Day I moved in I was playin' my guitar
Started bangin' on the wall with a boot
Then he came out, started banging on my door
Kicked it open

Watch out son, I got a tasergun
Watch out son, I got a tasergun
He's on the loose
He's got the juice
Like a mad dog with no teeth

Spent his pension in adult bookstores
Bringin' strange young men home
He'd leave me notes in the bathroom
Accusin' me of stealin' his toilet paper
Come out into the hallway
Dressed up in a greasy bathrobe
Tryin' to start a fight
He became known as the electric old man
And I still see him with his taser
Comin' at me

Watch out son, I got a tasergun
Watch out son, I got a tasergun
He's on the loose
He's got the juice
Like a pigeon with no wings

Modesto Lyrics - Beck

You came, you went
My mind it got a dent
I couldn't make my rent
Cos all my cash was lent

This town is filled
With thousand-dollar-bills
Laminated songs
Contaminated lawns
Well we eat about fifteen times a day
Starin' through a bag of Frito Lay
And I play with the fire in the stove
When my eyes peel out and my fingertips get cold

Well it's real and it's fake
And it's flamin' like a steak
And she's puttin' out my face with the rake
Oh honey you knew
That you were my one and only blur

Unglued, depressed
The meatloaf in my chest
Personality test
I failed with the best
And I stomped and I stormed
And I passed out in your dorm
Then you hustled me outside
I couldn't catch a ride
But the subway trains speak to me now
I'm browsing through the supermarket town
And the girls don't talk when I'm around
And I'm feelin' bad even though nothing's wrong

Chokin' on a breathmint

That's cool
Yeah, that's cool

Ken Lyrics - Beck

"Stuck out here sayin' they shot my mule and burned my wagon.
Ran out of sourdough two days ago, Ain't got no more lard.
God bless all ya folks."

EP: "A Western Harvest Field By Moonlight" (1994)

Totally Confused Lyrics - Beck

I'm totally confused by you
I'm totally confused by you

Ten foot man
Makin' my lunch
You'll never understand
I want you so much

And I never never want it
And I never never want it
And I never never want it
And I never never want it

I'm totally confused by you
I'm totally confused by you

Screamin' in my face
Whisper in my ear
Put me in a suitcase
With the can of beer

And I never never want it
And I never never want it
And I never never want it
And I never never want it

Gettin' Home Lyrics - Beck

Tell my baby I'm gettin home now
Tell my baby I'm gettin home
She don't need me
I don't need me
Who's gonna need me?

Someone's cryin, somone's changin
Someone's stayin just the same
She don't live here
I don't live here
Who's gonna live here?

Tell my baby I'm gettin home now
Tell my baby I'm gettin home
She don't need me
I don't need me
Who's gonna need me?

Blackfire Choked Our Death Lyrics - Beck

Lightning burned the fields
Black fire choked our breath
We huddled in the kitchen
Sand poured through the walls
We looked to one another
The children shut their mouths
The whirling and the turning
Of destruction filled our house
The blood-thirsty yearning
Clamored all about us
Darkness rose up
From the floor like a demon
Fearful of the death
That buckled through our minds
Shaken to the core
Foresaken and unkind
Well, the sun came a-shinin
And the dust did settle down
Birds and jack-rabbits
Lay dead on the ground
Electricity
Trembled in the skys
Sparks shot forward
Causing us to fly
Take some breakfast
But the grit was in our food
And everywhere around us
Starvation broke on through
My husband stood a-starin
At the plentiful disaster
God was in his eyes
But death was in his heart
Dried up whiskey
Chickens in the house
Stolen car stereo
Cholesterol on your mouth
Stolen car stereo
Snowman all in flames
Deluxe cockroach
Telling me what's real
Black Sabbath playing
I wake up in my socks
Candle all a-burnin
Her face is on tv

Feel Like A Piece Of Shit (Mind Control) Lyrics - Beck

Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit

She Is All (Gimme Something To Eat) Lyrics - Beck

She is all I need
For here, for now
She is all I see
For here, for now
Gimme something to eat
For here, for now
She is all I need
For here, for now
Oh yeah

Lampshade Lyrics - Beck

I don't want no cryin'
All upon my sleeve
I just want somebody
Who got no place to be
You call me up on Tuesday
I'll be stuck on Sunday night
Lookin' for some good things
To make me feel alright

When I snap my fingers
When I walk the line
When I get my money
I'll be killin' time
Time is killin' something
It's just to small to care
Runnin' through the jungle
Lookin' for your hair

Someone's talkin' backwards
Lookin' for a fight
Puttin' on a lampshade
Cos you're shinin' way too bright
I don't want no cryin'
I don't want no pain
I don't want no lonesome life
On a broken train

Feel Like A Piece Of Shit (Crossover Potential) Lyrics - Beck

It's a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit

Mango (Vader Rocks!) Lyrics - Beck

A sparkle in the night
She glides
Tainted by the affliction
Seduced
Deeply into myself
Faceless
Emerging
Black confetti

Feel Like A Piece Of Shit (Cheetoes Time) Lyrics - Beck

Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit
Feel like a piece of shit

The Fucked Up Blues Lyrics - Beck

I got the fucked up blues
I got the fucked up blues
Lord what can you do
About the fuckin' fucked up blues

Well the beans have been bakin'
Upon the camel's hump
Like a voodoo curse in an old lady's purse
Confetti on my grave

I got the fucked up blues
I got the fucked up blues
Lord what can you do
About the fuckin' fucked up blues

I got the fucked up blues
I got the fucked up blues
Lord what can you do
About the fuckin' fucked up blues

I woke up on the futon
And my boots were on fire

Special People Lyrics - Beck

Special people all the time
Special people on my mind
Special people brown and white
Special people getting all uptight
Special people kiss my soul
Special people take control
Special people lick the ground
Special people word up and down
Special people squeeze the breeze
Special people slice their knees
Special people soak up fire
Special people climbing higher
Special people create belief
Special people steal some beef
Special people don't need your plans
Special people got recycling cans
Special people got songs to sing
Special people are happening
Special people stopping fast
Special people hauling ass
Special people are so sincere
Special people got special beer
Special people flick the grease
Special people come in peace
Special people will scrimp and save
Special people will never bathe
Special people in hot pursuit
Special people got the boot
Special people sleep in moss
Special people got the sauce
Special people open wide
Special people ain't satisfied

Magic Stationwago Lyrics - Beck

Put my bony fingers on my sliding coffin
Drag upon the rag
It's a thing we gotta do
Kill my inspiration
Drowning in your Stationwagon

Pushing like a fishing pole
And just to spread the leg on the cracker
And the magic chicken claw
Fridge is full, a carton of milk, butter, rabbit 'n' juice

No Money No Honey Lyrics - Beck

Trouble All My Days Lyrics - Beck

Here's a story that I want to pass on to you that I think is... has meant a lot to me.
He said 'Ed, you have no control over the past, it's a canceled check.
You have no control over the future because you don't know what's going to happen.
Your maximum point of power in your life is now!

Never had trouble
All my days
Never had trouble
All my days

Never had trouble
All my days
Never had trouble
All my days

Heartland Feeling Lyrics - Beck

I'm totally fucked up. I can barely speak.
I'm totally fucked up. They gave me so many drugs.
But, uh... I'm gonna be here...
Alright, what we're talkin about here is... is kind of a...
it's a heartland feeling... like, uh, Mellencamp, you know, kind of a Mellen feeling.
Ok, what you gotta get together is a... some... a heartland folk singer.
Uh, we're gonna need a real quick... uh, John Cougar Mellencamp, Bruce Spingsteen, Bob Seeger...
that type of feeling. A Mellen feeling.
You know, real, uh, powerful, approving music, uh... of a heartland quality, uh, just powerful straight-forward music.
And if you can't get just the right type of feeling, find someone who will pass and change them.

Old man johnson got his head in his hand
Makin' his way across state in a fiddlin' band
With hair all down in his eyes
And the microphone all covered with flies
When he gets done playin, goes back to his room
Climbs in the bed in his cowboy boots
And he picks up a magazine, turns on the TV
Lights a cigar as he's fallin asleep

Well he's only a person
Who doesn't know shit
Yeah, nothin happenin
That's about it

Yeah

Well little Rosanna came from Texarkana
Had fourteen dollars wrapped in a bandana
Came into town not lookin for much
Well she found a hound dog and she named him Dutch
She got a job at the arcade takin' quarters
But she was never too good at takin' orders
So one night she stopped givin out change
She kicked the boss in the shin and unplugged the games

She's only a person
Who doesn't know shit
Nothin' happenin
That's about it

Ooo ooo
Yeah yeah yeah

Sam got canned at the cannery
He punched out the clock that night
His knuckle was bleeding as he walked home
He was cold and he had a headache
Well his wife was cookin canned beans
He took out all the money out of his jeans
And he set it on fire in the kitchen sink
As his wife handed him a drink

He was only a person
Who didn't know shit
Nothin happenin
That's about it

Oh yeah
Ooo ooo ooo

Smiler was lookin' for handouts
Sleepin' in an abandoned lighthouse
Down at the mini-mall shakin his hat
Washin' windows with his bare hand
He found a sports car
With the keys in the ignition
It just seemed so easy
He took a joyride, drove it into a hedge
Came out with the steering wheel wrapped around his head

Well he's only a person
Who doesn't know shit
Nothin happenin
That's about it
Ooo ooo yeah

Well Janie was born in a small town
Everybody just standin around
They had bingo games and the raffle
Everybody chewin tobacco
Well she grew up kinda restless
All her boyfriends wanted to be dentists
Well, she got a job at the truck stop
And she got old fast and never did what she wanted

She's only a person
Who doesn't know shit
Nothin happenin
That's about it

Yea yeah yeah
Oh yeah
[etc.]

Super Golden Black Sunchild Lyrics - Beck

Bless this scepter
The genius too
Shit the eagle
Don't be cruel
My little sunchild
My blinding sun
Stab my power
Reap the reward
Supergolden black sunchild

Slice the mango
The drooling fool
Flare the nostril
Feeling cold
Sweating in the
Meadow of fate
Scratch me gently
Burning flame
Supergolden black sunchild

Soul Sucked Dry Lyrics - Beck

My soul's suckin dry
My soul's been sucked dry
Emptiness surrounds me
Bitterness crowns me
Emptiness surrounds me
Bitterness crowds me
With my soul sucked dry
Oh, my soul's suckin dry
Famine in my hands
My soul's suckin dry
Emptiness surrounds me
Bitterness crowns

Feelings Lyrics - Beck

I have so many feelings
And I know that I'm dealing
I'm dealing with all these feelings
Feelings
Oh, feelings!
Lord I have so many feelings
And I know that I'm dealing
I'm dealing with all these feelings
I'm feeling all of these feelings
Lord I know that I'm healing
I'm trying to feel all of my feelings
Feelings that make me feel
That there's something more to be real
Lord I'm dealing with these feelings
Feelings
Feelings
Feelings
Oh no no
All of these feelings
When everything is turning
Turning into my feelings
And I know that something is feeling
All of my feelings

Gettin' Home Lyrics - Beck

Will I Be Ignored By The Lord Lyrics - Beck

When i was born
Lot's of people sayin' I looked like a dead man
but to them there was no kindness
And so I came into the world with my hands in my jacket
Made a whole lotta racket
Couldn't speak, but I could beat on a stick
O when that aeroplane comes with the lord
Will I be ignored
Will I be ignored by the lord
Will I be ignored
there was a woman, she looked on me sweetly
I needed her life to be with mine
But never will they meet
No, never will they see
These two vines will twist away, away
Will I be ignored by the lord
Will I be ignored by the lord, by the lord
What for?
I may travel on one leg
My breakfast will be unpaid
And the flapjacks will flap back off the ceiling onto my head
Will I be ignored
Will I be ignored by the lord
Will I be ignored

Bogus Soul Lyrics - Beck

Fuckin' on my, fuckin' on my floor
Fuckin' off
Fuckin' talkin' to me
Fuckin' talkin' to me
Oh! And I won't, and I tell how the people
They want my soul
They wanna touch me with my finger
Oh, they feel... oh!
I wanna think, I wanna feel
I don't got no tail
I rock 'n roll
My rack 'n roll
I got the soul
I got the soul
Got the soul
You got the soul
She got the soul
She rock 'n roll
She got the soul
She got the roll
She gots a soul

Let's Get Lost Lyrics - Beck (with Bat For Lashes)

[Natasha Khan (Bat for Lashes)]
Touch me I'm cold, unable to control
Touch me I'm golden and wild as the wind blows
And tumbling tumbling, don't go fascination
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost

[Beck]
Let me come closer, I'm not your shadow
With our eyes shielding from the oncoming counts
It's not hard for us to say what we should not

[Both]
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost

[Natasha Khan (Bat for Lashes)]
Touch me I'm cold, unable to control
Touch me I'm golden and wild as the wind blows
And tumbling tumbling, don't go fascination

[Both]
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost

Oooooh ooooooh oooooh
Let's get lost
