ldt007: Weezer Lyrics
#007 - [ Weezer Lyrics ] [ keno ]
I'm on a bit of a roll here, so i'll step onto a few more songs from a different band.. Weezer.
I checked out their new album (The Green Album) and I didn't really like it at first. I thought the single, Hash Pipe, was pretty basic and personally, kinda poor for what I have come to expect from a Weezer song, heh. However, I listened to it some more and there were a few songs on there I really liked, so my opinions of it have risen.
They say that any bands second album is renown for being the tricky one to write. It has to live up to peoples expectations yet surpass the quality of the first in some way. Weezer's second album 'Pinkerton' is my favourite by far. It has some really beautiful songs on it. Its as if the guy who wrote the tunes was going through some hard times with the females at the time, it really shines through in the songs at least..
Bah, I'll stop being boring now and get on with the lyrics. Go out and get hold of these songs and give them a listen if you haven't already.
--> Weezer - Why Bother?
i know i should get next to you
you've got a look that made me think you're cool
but it's just sexual attraction
it's nothing real
so i'd better keep whackin
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
it's gonna kill when you desert me
this happened to me twice before
it won't happen to me anymore
i've known a lot of girls before
what's the harm in knowing one more?
maybe we could even get together
maybe you could break my heart next summer
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
it's gonna kill when you desert me
this happened to me twice before
it won't happen to me anymore
it's a crying shame i'm all alone
not with you, nor her, nor anyone
won't deny me of my head
crack it open and then i would share
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
it's gonna kill when you desert me
this happened to me twice before
won't happen to me anymore
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
it's gonna kill when you desert me
this happened to me twice before
won't happen to me anymore
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
why bother
it's gonna hurt me
--> Weezer - Across the Sea
you are eighteen year old girl
who live in small city in japan
you heard me on the radio
about one year ago
and you wanted to know all about me
and my hobbies
my favorite food and my birthday
why are you so far away from me?
i need help and you're way across the sea
i could never touch you
i think it would be wrong
i've got your letter
you've got my song
they don't make stationery like this where i'm from
so fragile
so refined
so i sniff (so i sniff)
and i lick (and i lick)
your envelopes
fall to little pieces every time
i wonder what clothes you wear to school
i wonder how you decorate your room
i wonder how you touch yourself
and curse myself for being across the sea
why are you so far away from me?
i need help and you're way across the sea
i could never touch you
i think it would be wrong
i've got your letter
you've got my song
at ten i shaved my head and tried to be a monk
i thought the older women would like me if i did
you see mom, i'm a good little boy (good little boy)
it's all your fault, momma
it's all your fault
goddamn this business is really lame
i gotta live on an island to find the truth
so send me your love
from all around the world
so i gotta live on
words and dreams and a million screams
oh how i need a hand of mine to feel
why are you so far away from me?
why are you so far away from me?
i could never touch you
i think it would be wrong
i've got your letter
you've got my song
i've got your letter
you've got my song
--> Weezer - The Good Life
when i look in the mirror
i can't believe what i see
tell me who's that funky dude
staring back at me
folking bitten down
can't even get around
without an old man's cane
i fall and hit the ground
shivering in the cold
bitter and alone
excuse the bitchin
i shouldn't complain
i should have no feeling
cause feeling is pain
cause everything i need
is denied me
and everything i want
is taken away from me
but who do i got to blame
nobody but me
and i don't wanna be a old man anymore
it's been a year or two since i was down on the floor
shaking booty making sweet love all the night
it's time i got back to the good life
it's time i got back
it's time i got back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
i wanna go back, yeah
screw this crap i've had it
i ain't no mr. cool
i'm a pig i'm a dog
so 'scuse me if i drool
i ain't gonna hurt nobody
ain't gonna cause a scene
justly to admit i want sugar in my tea
hear me, hear me, i want sugar in my tea
and i don't wanna be a old man anymore
it's been a year or two since i was down on the floor
shakin' booty making sweet love all the night
it's time i got back to the good life
it's time i got back
it's time i got back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
i wanna go back, yeah
i wanna go back
i wanna go back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
it's time i got back
it's time i got back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
i wanna go back, yeah
and i don't wanna be a old man anymore
it's been a year or two since i was down on the floor
shakin' booty making sweet love all the night
it's time i got back to the good life
it's time i got back
it's time i got back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
it's time i got back
it's time i got back
and i don't even know how i got off the track
i wanna go back
i wanna go back
