Eels - Birdgirl On A Cell Phone Lyrics

Category: , , ,

She has eyes disability blue
A german dog and a strict curfew
And if one man's cage is another man's stage
Then she's turned the script to another page
And she doesn't really give a damn
What you have to say

She makes a call on her friend's cell phone
The operator answers and says "you're not alone"
And if one man's ceiling is another's dance floor
Then she'll be the one running to the seashore
Trying to tell the seagulls this is home

And if one man's cage is another man's stage
Then she'll be the one wiser than her age
Trying to get the message to your ears

Eels - 3 Speed Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Got a 3 speed and banana seat
Sitting back on the sissy bar
Went to sev and got a drink
Wish i was driving in daddy's car

And i looked up at the sky last night
And i thought i saw a bomb
And why won't you just tell me what's going on?

Riding down on springhill road
Meeting alfred out in the woods
Dogs bark and mosquito's bite
Scratching the itch that makes it feel good

And i looked into the mirror last night
All i saw was a pretty blonde
And why won't you just tell me what's going on?

Life is funny
But not ha ha funny
Peculiar i guess
You think i got it all going my way
Then why am i such a fucking mess?

Want a pony and a birthday cake
Want a party with a scary clown
Kneel down and bow to the princess
Kneel down for the queen of the town

And i looked up at the sky last night
And i thought i saw a bomb
And why won't you just tell me what's going on?
Tell me what's going on

Eels - A Daisy Through Concrete Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Wake up the dying
Don't wake up the dead
Change what you're saying
Don't change what you said
Now that it's time that
I got out of bed

When i walk myself down sycamore street
The sun beats down
No shoes on my feet
And i stumble on a daisy through concrete

Pink and brown babies in pink stroller cars
Know that it's good
They don't care where they are
They know that home doesn't feel very far

When i walk myself down sycamore street
The sun beats down
No shoes on my feet
And i stumble on a daisy through concrete

Airplane is flying up in the sky
Making a pattern with the white lines
Looks like a heart
Or maybe a pie

Eels - Agony Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Am i gonna be all right?
No i'm not gonna be all right
Nothing is all right now
Am i gonna see the sun come up?
Or am i going down?
'cause every day i'm here
All i feel is sheer
Agony

Friends tellin' me that maybe i need
Some psychiatric help
Yeah they're always so quick to tell you
Just how to get on with it
But i look into the mirror
And all i see is age, fear
And agony

If i could just remember what it was like
When i was younger
Before all the joy and happiness
Was replaced with hunger
Now all i've got to show for the seeds that didn't grow
Is agony

Eels - All In A Day's Work Lyrics

Category: , , ,

When i was born the doctor said
There's something wrong inside that baby head
When i was a boy at sunday school
I told them all that they were fools

All in a day's work
To live and breathe
A sight to see
And so it goes

I went into the fortune teller's
She wouldn't read my horoscope
I go into the laundromat
The people all buy extra soap

All in a day's work
To live and breathe
A sight to see

Eels - Animal Lyrics

Category: , , ,

If i could love you
I'm sure i would
If i could hold you
And feel understood
I'd be there now
But i don't know how
'cause i am an animal

Bundle of rags
Wrap me tight
Keep me safe inside
Warm at night

I am no more
I am not good
I am so sorry
If you misunderstood
I'd make it up
But i cannot
If i am an animal

Eels - Ant Farm Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Hate a lot of things
But i love a few things
And you are one of them

Hard to believe
After all of these years
But you are one of them

Walk down the street
I'm thinking:
Everybody move along
I've got a sad-hearted needing
To belong

Nevertheless
It's all the mess you made
But i can let it go

Walk down the street
I'm thinking:
Look at all the ants in a farm
I've got a sad-hearted feeling
To harm

Hate a lot of things
But i love a few things
And you are one of them

Eels - Are You & Me Gonna Happen Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Are you and me gonna happen
Are you and me gonna happen soon

The gods smile hard down upon
A love that's shared
Heaven's awaiting those who dare

Are you and me gonna happen
Are you and me gonna happen soon

A sweeter feeling i can't guess
Will ever be
A truer union i can't see

I don't know how much more i can take
I will run through the streets
I will howl at the moon
If you and me cannot be happening soon

Eels - Bad News Lyrics

Category: , , ,

Guess i'm doing something wrong
Never feel right in these shoes
Pocket full of matches and a head full of flames
Got to warn you that i'm bad news

She tucks me in and then she screams
"one day you will have to choose
Either take care of me or take care of you
And don't pretend you're not bad news"

Come on now i'll take you home
You don't have a thing to lose
But stick around long enough and you'll find out
I am nothing but bad news

You can never change where you're from
No matter who i will accuse
I'm gonna get on with a better life
And one day i won't be bad news

It's the same everyday when i wake up
It's the same in the way that you
Gave me up
In the middle of a swan dive

And i was soaring down
Perfect and slow

Eels - Beautiful Freak Lyrics

Category: , , ,

You're such a beautiful freak
I wish there more just like you
You're not like all of the others

And that is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
That is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak

Some people think you have a problem
But that problem lies only within
Just 'cause you are not like the others

But that is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
That is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak

Too good for this world
But I hope you will stay
And I'll be here to see that you don't fade away

You're such a beautiful freak
I bet you are flying inside
Duck down and then go for cover

And know that I, I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
You know that I, I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
