Feel free to add lyrics from unreleased/alternative versions of songs on the TM 4CD in this thread! I
I really kicked on this release’s
Bent Livingroom Song – “The Entertaining Ape” – so here’s the lyrics as I hear them:
it’s such a soulful, sister
our dying breed
but as i’m getting older
that’s just the kind i need
it’s not a pretty picture
just runny paint
and as i’m getting closer
it’s getting weak and faint
what I know, what I know, what I know
won’t kill me
and in my brighter moments I can even laugh at myself
what I know, what I know, what I know
won’t kill me
but it doesn’t really help me either and
i ain’t old enough to die
now i’m old and wasted
bent out of shape
a forgotten relic
an entertaining ape
I should have checked the options
read the smallest print
but like any jerk
i didn’t take a hint
what I know, what I know, what I know
won’t kill me
and in my brighter moments I can even laugh at myself
what I know, what I know, what I know
won’t kill me
but it doesn’t really help me either and
i ain’t old enough to die
next:
“Sinking”
watch it when the green turns brown
and you’re underneath it all
someone may stop and pick the sunlight from the leaves
and you wonder where your toys all went hiding
you nod off and start sinking down to forgotten yesterdays
and then there’s some whispering in the background which sounds like “yesterday”…
Very 90’s, Very Aware
Now that she’s gone, we can steal some dough
Get some hash, some glue and a video
Watch the sign/song(?) from the sofa
And laugh at the latest MTV band
They will live a decent life some other day
Hail mother cable network queen
Watching news while sniffing kerosene
No, I’m easy man, just pass the beer
The latest scene is just not there
They will live a decent life some other day
You’re so cool! When you’re in-sig-nificent!
They will live a decent life some other day (x3)
When ??????????????????, I’m okay
Go!
You’re so cool! When you’re in-sig-nificent, baby!
With the exception of the question marks, these lyrics seem relatively accurate.
