SONIC YOUTH - GOO (1990)
Here we go to another candle I know
All the girls there playing on a jelly roll
Time to take a ride
Time to take it in a midnight eye
And if you wanna go
Get on below
Pinking out the day
Dreaming out the crazy way
Finger on the love
It's all above
Everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
A satellite wish will make it just enough
You be making out with a witch in a coffee truck
Time to rock the road
And tell the story of the jelly rollin
Dirty boots are on
Hi de ho
Pinking out the black
Dreamin' in a crack
Satan got her tongue
Now it's undone
I got some dirty boots
Yeah dirty boots
I got some dirty boots, baby
Dirty boots
Hey
Dreaming
Dreaming of a girl like me
Hey what are you waiting for?
Feeding, feeding me?
I feel like I'm disappearing, getting smaller every day
But I look in the mirror and I'm bigger in every way
She said you aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never goin' anywhere
I ain't never goin' anywhere
I'm in heaven now
I can see you Richard
Goodbye Hollywood, goodbye Danny
Hello Janis, hello Dennis, Elvis
And all my brand new friends
I'm so glad you're all here with me
Until the very end
Dreaming
Dreaming of how it's supposed to be
But now this tunic's spinning
Around my arms and knees
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But when I open my mouth to sing
I'm bigger in every way
She said you are never going anywhere
You are never going anywhere
I aint' never goin' anywhere
I aint' never goin' anywhere
Hey mum look
I'm up here
I finally made it
I play in a drumsband too
Don't be sad
The band doesn't sound half bad
And I remember mum what you said
You said honey
You look so underfed
Another green salad
Another ice tea
There's a tunic in the closet
Waiting just for me
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But I look in your eyes
And I'm bigger in every way
She said you aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
Goodbye Richard got to go now
I'm finally on my own
But then I start again
Keep your lovelights glowing
Little girl's got the blues
I can still hear mama say
Honey don't let it go to your head
Talking to a punker priest just doggin' the breeze 'bout being a tree
This is a free land
Along comes Mary Christ skatin' light on ice says there's no-one high
Hey mary-christ
You gotta go
You got a date now
Yeah I know
Should not be late now
Sensed by x-ray eyes her spirit spies into my life
I found it out now
Wraps my head in skin says now I'm in to the candy sin
Yes it is now
Everytime she sing that lovesong
Everytime I guess she's right wrong
Angels in a devil skirt buys me a shirt says I hope you like
I hope you
Hope I hope you like like like you hope that I explode
I say hello now
Here we go we've waited so long
Yeah I go, Mary too come along
Talking to a punker priest just doggin' the breeze 'bout being a tree
This is a free land
Along comes Mary Christ skatin' light on ice says there's no-one high
Another christal
You gotta go
You got a date now
Yeah I know
Should not be late now
Sensed by x-ray eyes her spirit spies into my life
Burn it out now
Angel in a devil skirt buy me a shirt says I hope you lie
Yeah it is now
here we go
i've waited so long
Yeah I know
But Mary too come along
Kool thing you're sitting with a kitty
Now you know you sure look pretty
Like a lover not a good dancer
Super boy take a little chance here
I don't wanna, I don't think so
I don't wanna, I don't think so
Kool thing let me play with your radio
Move me turn me on baby oh
I'll be your slave
Give you a shave
I don't wanna, I don't think so
I don't wanna, I don't think so
Yeah
Tell'em 'bout
Hear the way we hear this
Hey kool thing
Come here, sit down beside me
There's something I gotta ask you
I just wanna know what're you gonna do for me
I mean are you gonna liberate us girls from male white corporate oppression?
Tell it like it is
Huh?
Yeah
Don't be shy
Word up
Fear of a female planet
Fear of a female planet
Fear baby
I just want you to know
That we can still be friends
Let everybody know
Koolkoolkoolkoolkool
Kool kool
Thing
Kool kool
Thing
When you're a star
I know that you'll fix everything everything everything
Kool thing sitting with a kitty
Now you know you sure look pretty
Rock me just a little faster
Now I know you are the master
I don't wanna, I don't think so
I don't wanna, I don't think so
Kool thing walking like a panther
Come on and give me an answer
Kool thing walking like a panther
What'd he say?
I don't wanna, I don't think so
I don't wanna, I don't think so
And you feel the spiral turning for you alone
And you feel so heavy that you just can't stop it
When you see your madness turns you into stone
A picture of your life she's like a rocket
All the time
Hurt me if you're crazy it's alright
I see you moving in and out of sight
My friends tell you it'll all come through there
From nowhere to nowhere
Come together, come through
Have I lived now with a mote inside my eye
And I can't see you breathing as before
I am airless, a vacuum child
And I can't stand to reason at your door
In this time
Hurt me if you're crazy it's alright
I've seen you moving in and out of sight
My friends tell me it'll all come through there
From nowhere to nowhere
Come together
I'm down in the daytime out of sight
Coming in from dreamland I'm on fire
I can see it's all been here before
Dream a dream that lies right at your door
When the seasons circle sideway without a turn
And words don't speak just fall across the carpet
You're just in time to watch the fire burn
It seems a crime that you face it like you love it
All the time
My friend Goo has a real tattoo
She always knows just what to do
She looks through her hair like she doesn't care
What she does best is stand and stare
She can play the drums in two
And the boys say: 'Hey Goo what's new?'
My friend Goo just says: 'Hey you'
My friend Goo just says: 'Hey you'
I know a secret or two about Goo
She won't mind if I tell you
She likes to wear green underwear
And lays down most anywhere
She doesn't have nothing to do
And the boys say: "Hey Goo what's new?"
My friend Goo goes: "Hey you"
My friend Goo goes: "Hey you"
I know a secret or two about Goo
She won't mind if I tell you
I know a secret or two about Goo
I know a secret about Goo and you
And she sticks just like glue
And the boys go : Hey Goo what's new?
My friend Goo just goes: "Hey you"
My friend Goo just goes: "Hey you"
Goo Goo Goo
Goo Goo Goo
Goo Goo Goo, my friend Goo
Goo Goo Goo, talkin' 'bout Goo
Goo Goo Goo, my friend Goo
Goo Goo Goo, you would too
Goo
Here it comes again
Out of the rain
Seems to have a new
Kind of same
Been playing on a
Simple rhyme
The sign comes alive and
Speaks the mind
It turns to me and
Turns to gold
It turns to see
The fast lane slow
It's been away too long
It's been the way I'm goin'
It needs custard on
To the west star
Looking out I thought I
Saw it blink
Coming on to me
Like a silver eye
Pick it up and
Turn it on and
Head on out to
Western starland
It's been a man and gone
Now it's a singing song
Like a western star
It's going my way
Looking out I'm back in
Time to stay
Into the eastern
Silent way
Come to life
Through the clearer
Ghost arise
Into the mirror
You've been away too long
It's been way too long
An eastern star is on
A disappearer
Mildred Pierce
Mildred
Mildred pierce
Mildred pierce
No
Mildred pierce
Mildred pierce
Why
Mildred pierce
Whaaaaaaaa
If I could give you anything
I would give you a kick
You'd rather have a dollar
Than a hug from your sis
You really fucked up this time
Your lady's really pissed
She's not just laughing
She's polishing her fist
But you could give me anything
But you couldn't stand a fist
Don't give me your soul
Your heart is an abyss
Here's a pack of ciggies
Fresh from the wonderlist
A dream to wish your heartdesires
Cinderella is pissed
A cold is gonna take you
Freeze away your tears
Come a little closer honey
We could be so near
Mind to your crossfire
That you got no sense of time
Minds are right inside you
That I'm scared of your crime
If I could give you anything
I would give you a kick
You'd rather have a dollar
Than a hug from your sis
A cold is gonna take you
And freeze away your tears
Come a little closer honey
We can be so near
Instrumental
Waking up I see you dreaming of a drivin'
Open your eyes to see tv set in blue
I've been waiting for you to smile, I'm pretty freezin'
Wintertime comes summer, you are why it's happenin'
Sugar babe, sugar babe, do it to me
Do me babe, do me babe, can't you see me?
I'm sugar now, sugar now, do it to me
Do me babe, do me babe, can't you see me?
I feel the morning slip it sights into your mirror
Now I see why you might see it's pretty clear
I been looking just to feel that funny feeling
I don't know but it's a mystery to reckon right
Sugar babe, sugar babe, do it to me
Do me babe, do me babe, can't you see me?
I'm sugar now, sugar now, do it to me
Do me babe, do me babe, can't you see me?
