Bands with gooseberry fool lyricists

Those L.E.Ds throw their glow to the potholed ground
Snap shut as they peer out from a collar, he's wearing your lipstick
And drinking from your glass,
Inside there's a drillshot buzz through the bathroom wall
Taste it from the telephone hear it in the siren wail, write your name

In cellophane strips,
Across contours of your bloodied mouth

WOO!
See a distraction
Over the black wax
Every movement
Highlights in yellow

From kinky buses to ricket ladders
For a thousand foot tunnel and a world underground
Step out from your heavy breath crouch, breaking to the point
Pleased to meet you

Take everything she's got and wrap it in plastic wrap it in plastic
Encase it in film and take her strawberry floating back

WOO!
See a distraction
Over the black wax
Every movement
Highlights in yellow

I can see a distraction
That mounts this paramount task
And it's said with such sadness
That the thrill is sealed in black wax

This ride, so far,
Came and went, here we are,
When they find you, so far
It'll take a miracle, here we are

Aye.

Also, Brandon Flowers can go eat a dick.

I love the Black Wax lyrics because they're so gooseberry fool. Read something about it being about dreams or some gooseberry fool.

The song's lyrics, written by vocalists John Baillie Jnr and Calum Gunn are about a dream John had about the thrill of having sex on a bus made of drums (with another musician, but he won't say who) in an underground world in Paris, and trying to conserve the feeling by sealing it in a wax lined tin.

You can't stop looking me, staring at me
Be what I be, you can't stop looking at me
So get off of my face,
You can't stop clickin 'bout me
Writin' 'bout me, tweeting 'bout me,
I can't stop, it's what I gon' be,
My swagger's in check

I find most of Radiohead's lyrics to be like a jumble sale from the dictionary. In the same manner as Muse, I think most of it's 70% delivery.

We'll start over again
Grow ourselves new skin
Get a house in Devon
Drink cider from a lemon

:fp:

The worst, though, has to be Fran Healy from Travis.

If we turn, turn, turn turn turn,
We might learn, learn, learn
And if we turn, turn, turn turn turn,
We might learn
Learn to turn

So only through turning can we learn to turn? But if we're turning in the first place, surely we've already learned to turn? In which case, we don't need to turn any more.

Also bad:

But if you sing, sing
Sing, sing sing sing
For the love you bring
Won't mean a thing
Unless you sing
Sing sing sing

Ignoring the grammatical issues brought about by the presence of the word 'but' (he doesn't bother to explain what will happen if this person does indeed take up his suggestion) what kind of weirdo is Fran in apparently insisting that anyone who shows him affection can only do so by the power of song. Does that mean s/he has to sing all the time? Or just when s/he's 'bringing love'?

Maybe that I am blind
maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
Maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I am blind
maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind
maybe that I am blind

And that's the best bit.

It gets a lot of airplay in these parts. It never fails to distress me.

"I've been to the year 3000,
Not much has changed but they live underwater"

See, that strikes me as quite a significant change.

And triple breasted women swam around town totally naked.

It seems like actually, everything had changed.

That song obviously has gooseberry fool, lyrics but it's just so fun and upbeat. :wub:

Reminds me of more innocent times, playing GT3.

End of.

Actually, after doing some searching this popped up:

From 21 Questions apparently.

2 pages and no mention of Placebo? For shame.

strawberry float right off. Thom Yorke's lyrics are a million times better than Matt Bellamy's.

This one never fails to make me snort with derision:

I told him I am the flower you are the seed
We walked in the garden we planted a tree
Don't try to find me, please don't you dare
Just live in my memory, you'll always be there

Bryan Adams wrote:Been around the world 'bout a thousand times
Still a knock on the door makes me nervous
I think I'll see you standing there - but no
It's only room service - ya room service

Who told Noel Gallagher that the end of every line has to rhyme?
