Tonics & Twisted Chasers par Guided by Voices - Paroles et titres de l'album

[Verse 1]

They walked across the strip to the kittycats' clutch

I'm in love with a girl named Satellite

And I know that she'll take me home tonight

 

[Verse 2]

They're very cute, so select them quickly

Perhaps one day, you'll strike a hotter match

I'm in love with a girl named Edison

And her sweetness is my only medicine

 

[Outro]

Satellite

Goin' right, ba ba ba ba ba

Ba ba ba ba ba

Ba ba ba ba ba

Ba ba ba ba ba

Ba ba ba, ba...

3 ContributorsDayton, Ohio – 19 Something and 5 LyricsA meditation on Guided by Voices' hometown, Dayton, Ohio.

 

A live version of this song would be released as a 7" single in 2000 as part of the Fading Captain Series.Isn't it great to exist

At this point in time?

Where the produce is rotten

But no one's forgotten

On strawberry Philadelphia Drive

Children in the sprinkler, junkies on the corner, corner

The smell of fried foods and pure hot tar

Man, you needn't travel far to feel completely alive

On strawberry Philadelphia Drive (Drive)

On a hazy day in 19 something and 5

1 ContributorIs She Ever? LyricsIs she ever with intent when she likens herself to a crow?

Will she crow and say bingo?

"I'm a believer," she tells me

But is she ever going to cry

When the directors bark from out there in the dark?

Fly sister vibrate, you were automatically free

The moment you came to me

Is she ever coming back for me?

Is she ever coming back for me?

Say it loud and we shall see

Is she ever coming back for me?

His merchandise is sublime

But don't laugh at the ha ha man

While you were gawking, I was talking

And squawking with the ha ha man

And so now I think breakfast is the plan

Are you coming with the ha ha man?

Ha ha man, ha ha man

(It's a ridiculous concept, everyone's laughing but me)

Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha ha, ha

(It's a ridiculous concept, everyone's laughing but me)

[Verse 1]

Taken aside and lectured

On how the people do not act

When forced and revealing hidden charms

The last text on village firearms

 

[Chorus]

Loads of creamy music

And lots of time to make it

Behind the steamy newsroom

They wouldn't dare to fake it

 

[Verse 2]

Lasting forever

Through radioactive weather

You do what you do, shake what it is

Add 'em up, yeah: 158 years of beautiful sex

 

[Chorus]

Loads of creamy music

And lots of time to make it

Behind the steamy newsroom

They wouldn't dare to fake it

Lasting forever...

She's got a face that makes me happy

I never thought about how lovely it was

Until one day she went over and out

Over and out

Over and out

When will she come back to me?

Over and out

 

She's got the face

She's got a face that makes me happy

I never thought about how lovely it was

Until one day she went over and out

Over and out

Over and out

When will she come back to me?

Over and out
