Spoon Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Lyrics
1. Don't Make Me A Target
Here come the man from the stars
we don't know why he go so far
and keep on marching along
beatin' his drum
Thugs and stick and bats and balls
for nuclear dicks with dialect drawls
they come from a parking lot town
where nothing lives in the sun
Don't make me a target (3x)
When you reach back in his mind
feels like he's breaking the law
There's something back there he got
that nobody knows
He never claimed to say what he says
He smells like the inside of closets and stairs
The kind where nobody goes
Don't make me a target...
2. The Ghost Of You Lingers
If you were here
Would you calm me down?
You settled this part
Feelings I fight (all the strangers in town)
Feeling so bright (would know if you were here)
The feelings I fight (would you ease my mind?)
Yeah (Come on!)
The sleep fled from my eyes
And I, I know that I need some
Give a thought to the one that you know
Or would you calm me down
When the night gets shadowed
We fast
We put on the clinic
If you were here
It felt good to me
(would you calm me down)
Can't see I'm losing it
Must have set up the scene
(The man asleep knockup)
Put on a clinic
(I see it) But I will need to write
(we settled this part) They're all alive
Oh, would you ease my mind?
Yeah
(The ghost of you lingers)
Put on a clinic till we hit the wall
(And leaves)
Just like a sailor with his wools beat soft
Come on
I had a light bad noon that could be put back together
My life
So light
Would you settle this part?
If you were here
Would you calm me down?
The ghost of you lingers
And leaves
I always think about it
Oh, would you calm me down?
3. You Got Yr Cherry Bomb
Life can be so fair
Let it go on and on
I can push for good
You got that cherry bomb
Blow out that cherry bomb for me
We lost it long ago
You and me
Now you know your way back from the spirit far
Brush your teeth for bed
Blow out that cherry bomb
Blow out that cherry bomb for me
You got to know it's on your sleeve
Know it's on your sleeve
Know it's on your sleeve (c'mon)
It was the longest day that I had ever known
I watched you start that drive alone
Blow out that cherry bomb for me
It's gonna burn right up your sleeve
Burn right up your sleeve
So there you go again
Out in your dressing gown
Get yourself to bed
Blow out that cherry bomb
Oh, life can be so fair
Let it go on and on
I could pay to have all your cherry bomb
Oh, life can be so fair
Let it go on and on
I could pay to have all your cherry bomb
4. Don't You Evah
Bet you got it all planned right
Bet you never worry
never even feel a fright
Bet you got it all planned right
Never fit to worry
never even feel a fright.
Single sleeps alone
and I know you don't really mind
Five years by your side
so I know you really don't mind
But don't you love her
deep down
I said don't evah
cause it's gonna keep him hanging around
Never
deep down
I said don't evah
because it's gonna keep him hanging around
Don't you never think it's right
Bet you think you had to but it doesn't feel right
Bet you never think it feels right
Famous-sounding words make your head feel light
Petals getting picked
with the love-yous
and the love-you-not
Five years going by
Everyone is standing on their side
But don't you love her
deep down
I said don't evah
because you're gonna keep him hanging around
Never
deep down
I said don't evah
because it's gonna keep him hanging around
But don't you love her
deep down
I said don't ever
because it's gonna keep him hanging around
Five years going by
everyone is standing on their side
Never
deep down
I said don't ever
cause it's gonna keep him hanging around
Five years going by
everyone is standing on their side
I said don't ever need to worry
cause it's gonna feel all right
Never
5. Rhthm And Soul
Come loosen up,
so hung up
come count them ways to brether
Remember,
Windsor
gets cold in ways you always forget
Oh you know
mmm the rhythm and soul
Get your hands out your back pockets,
boy let it go
[CHORUS]
Here comes the man,
you saw in Kazan,
he just picks in his cold... oh no...
the rhythm and soul
Dollars and cents and no accident
not in the name of democracy
Come get there, come be there
come let your socks fall down to your shoes
Oh you know
mm... the rhythm and soul
Get your ankles moving their sockets
ooh, there you go
[CHORUS]
And here comes the man,
he bought a gift from Kazan
he can't leave it alone... oh no...
the rhythm and soul
When you take a picture and it falls in the lot, oh no no
Take another picture and you spring in the trap, oh no no... mm you miss home
You can't back this at your ride
change of tide
And you're wise, you're wise
rhythm and...
Tract houses
square couches
short legs and square shoulders
Pot holders
aching soldiers
your tank rollers
your all overs
And you know
ooh the rhythm and soul
Get your fingers moving their sockets,
tune in Tokyo
You're just the man
the one I saw in Kazan
wonder what this book will throw... oh no
the rhythm and...
6. Eddie’s Ragga
Someone that I met but I hardly knew
He said that everyone loves a defective heart
He'd parted ways with diction, this was late last night
He see me getting your affection and it proved he was right
The way I stared off thinking that all was sound
Anyone I knew they woulda called me down
You can break my legs, you can kick me downstairs
But there ain't no getting over Joanie Hale-Maier
Just let me walk away
Ah let me walk away
And then the place ignite
It's in my face and I'm
Behind the bassline
Someone that I knew but I hardly met
Told me, it's hopeless I'm a slut for the New York Times
She made my heart soft, worn an aiguillette on her arm
She never been to Texas, never heard of King Kong
And it'd been so long since I'd been suitably high
So we did an Airborne, settled in for the night
Tell me sweetness don't somehow reach your heart
Until you fall flat down and you can't wait to start
This is the one cold truth we've all of us known
As I think to myself this could be easy or I could face it alone
And then the place ignite
All out of grace and I'm
Behind the bassline
7. The Underdog
Picture yourself in the living room
your pipe and slippers set out for you
I know you think that it ain't too far
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
felt the need to get up for it
oh you cut out the middleman
get free from the middleman
You got no time for the messenger,
got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,
you got no fear of the underdog,
that's why you will not survive!
I want to forget how conviction fits
but can I get out from under it?
Can I gut it out of me?
It can't all be wedding cake
It can't all be boiled away
I try but I can't let go of it
Can't let go of it,
Cause you don't talk to the water boy
and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,
You will not back up an inch ever,
that's why you will not survive,
The thing that I tell you now
It may not go over well
And it may not be photo-op
in the way that I spell it out
But you won't hear from the messenger,
don't wanna know bout something that you don't understand,
You got no fear of the underdog,
that's why you will not survive! (Hey!)
8. My Little Japanese Cigarette Case
It's just my Japanese cigarette case,
bring a mirror to my face
let all my memories be gone
Bring me my Japanese cigarette case,
bring a mirror to my face,
oh, let all my memories be gone
Bring me my Japanese cigarette case,
break a mirror to my face
oh, let all my memories be gone
It's just my Japanese cigarette case,
bring a mirror to my face
let all my memories be gone
9. Finer Feelings
Memphis comes creeping down my back
Somehow this place tastes just like an attack
A hundred-yard-stare of a kiss
Lord, I know I'll never miss it
They told me stop scouting the field
They told me have a look in commercial appeal
And start getting that hair cut sharp
Sometimes I think that I'll find a love
One that's gonna change my heart
I'll find it in commercial appeal
And then this heartache'll get chased away
I was part-time at the Tasty Prawn
That and moving furniture and cutting lawns
Covered in newsprint, staying up real late
Just holding out for some fate
Sometimes I think that I'll find a love
One that's gonna change my heart
I'll find it in commercial appeal
And then this heartache'll get chased away
[x2]
I was dreaming in the driver's seat
When the right words just came to me
And all my finer feelings came up
Always out on some witch's hunt
For the one who never lets me want
Before you know it it's all fuss
Sometimes I think that I'll find a love
One that's gonna change my heart
I'll find it in commercial appeal
And then this heartache'll get chased away
[x2]
10. Black Like Me
I believed that someone'd
take care of me tonight
As I walk into Dorian's
can you see it in my eyes?
(yeah)
My boots are on the mend
and they ain't walkin' home
Street tar in summer'll do a job on your soul
Street tar in summer'll do a job on your soul
ooh
Junie's watching cover shy
My head's feeling light
I believed that someone'd
take care of me tonight
anyhow, anyway, so I split
oh just getting out of there,
what's gonna get me out of this?
I spent the night in the map room,
I humanize the vacuum
I believed that someone'd
take care of me tonight
Oh and as I'm lookin out at you
can you see that in, in my eyes
on the mend,
now they could lead me home
Street tar in summer
will play a trick on your soul
Oh Junie's got daylight
(yeah)
Aw it made me feel so light
(aw yeah)
Just something to take care of the light
Junie's watching daylight
(yeah)
All there is to feel a light
(aw yeah)
Someone to take care of the light
ooh
All the weird kids up front
(yeah)
tell me what you know you want
(aw yeah)
Someone to take care of tonight... aww
