Is there a thread like this already? Anyway I'm pretty terrible at deciphering lyrics (not to mention lazy) but I know you guys are pretty good at it so does anyone have any ideas? We can collaborate!
B-Sides:
Beneath The Surface Frontier City Head to Toe My Third House Where Nobody Knows WooHoo

You're forgetting 'Head To Toe'.
Beneath the Surface
Degrade me, my purpose Bury me beneath the surface
I'm scratching, I'm clawing Trying hard to make a play
Can't stand me, beside me Kid you not, your kiss sure killed me
The cold of my burrow Never sees the light of day
Call me, call me, you could only hurt the story Call me, call me, I'll be there to shine a light
The swell of the speakers Sweaty ballroom dancing fever
They gather in numbers Elbow for a closer view
The cease fire, the weaker Hair so red I couldn't keep her
The dogs hound the neighbors Everything was blown away
Call me, call me, you could only hurt the story Call me, call me, I'll be there to shine a light
Machine, machines, point me to the nearest party You'll see, you'll see, baby it's the only way
Call me, call me, you could only Call me, call me, I'll be there
Machines, machines, point me to the nearest party

Woo Hoo
Love the days She's gone for a moment I don't know which way she was going Lord, it's been A long warm November I know now She acts like her mother I've been holding on Here forever And I don't know where she's going But hopefully She knows not to come back now
Kicking the door on the floor Went on a woman prowl (Woo Hoo) Sucking and kissing from it When I'm taking back that (Woo Hoo) Even you know I can hold on When I'm feeling (Woo Hoo) Baby, you know, that I could just sail away
She's been gone for a moment Still themselves Was the way she was going Shaping up And growing right on me Taking my advice Like a father I've been holding on Here forever And I don't know where she's going But hopefully
She's going to prowl when the storm comes And it'll come, and it'll come, and it'll come Instead she says, "Can't get none".
She's going to prowl when the storm comes And it'll come, and it'll come, and it'll come Instead she says, "Can't get none".

My Third House
How many souls will it take How many necks will you break I say, how many bones can I waste In that little old shape I'm sold from afar But you don't try me Showed you my cars But I don't drive
Let me get away On a holiday We could, tire the ones we know Gonna tie right on I say, hey, I'm sober from a bar But you don't drive me Show you my car But I don't drive
Tell the idiot yeah Running down my back We could, see the devils in town Like the slow fall down I say, hey, I'm sober from a bar But you don't drive me I showed you my car But I don't drive I said, hey, I'm taken aback Like you don't know You blow me away When you don't try
Let me get away On a holiday We could, tire the ones we know Gonna tie right on I say, hey, I'm sober from a bar But you don't drive me Show you my car But I don't drive
Tell the idiot yeah Running down my back We could, see the devils in town Smoke 'til the sun goes down I say, hey, I'm sober from a bar But you don't drive me I showed you my car But I don't drive I said, hey, I'm taken it back Like you don't know You drove me away When you don't know
I say, hey, I'm sober from a bar But you don't drive me I showed you my car But I don't drive I said, hey, I'm taken it back Like you don't know You drove me away When you don't know
Head To Toe
Oh, he's such a sucker from her head to her toes (X2) Conversation, Mississippi related, he's searching for the softball diamond.
Prancin' like a bad ass who never seen a church house, another jolly face in the choir.
He's reaching and a kissin her mouth Oh, he's such a sucker from her head to her toes (X2)
Screamin' at the cousin that never gets no lovin', the hairy monkeys covered tonight. Falling over tables, a black eye with no way home.And pouting underneath the street lights.
He's reaching and a kissin her mouth Oh, he's such a sucker from her head to her toes (X2) And no-one seems to like it out loud Oh, he's such a sucker from her head to her toes (X8)
Frontier City
Find yourself a new frontier Cause life is going, going gone Fly yourself away from here 'til you're clear Before it's going, going, gone
Say it loud and in the light For it's going, going gone Shake the hands, the hands that pick people fight Cause life is going, going gone
Yes I'll find you and cut you down Friends and neighbours, sleepy town If you wake up before the blow Pick your face up We come, we go We live until we live no more
Travel with the dead black eye Before it's come and come and gone Cradles and the rocking chairs beneath the light Before it's come and come and gone
Yes I'll find you and cut you down Friends and neighbours, sleepy town If you wake up before the blow Pick your face up We come, and go We come and go, oh oh oh We come and go, oh oh oh oh
Where Nobody Knows
With hands in the air you look like the girl at the fare with the bubbly eyes. stonewashed shoe pulling at a rock but the rock don't compromise, come up to me say why are you so skinny and pretty for a boy?, said thanks for the insults and compliments you'll never forget my face no more
i can't hardly reach you and i know it's getting harder to be you. so i'll be dropping you where nobody knows, city ought to take you, it would take a little second to break you so i'll be dropping you where nobody knows, i'll be dropping you where nobody knows.
looking pretty keen sitting on a swing, That don't mean a thing at all, heals on my feet, are barkin like a pack of dogs, siccin' on a coon in a stall.
Take it for your word, take it for a ride, take it for the evening dead or alive, warming up the car packing as the pilots play.
I can't hardly reach you and i know it's getting harder to be you, so i'll be dropping you where nobody knows, city ought to take you, it would take a little second to break you, so i'll be dropping you where nobody knows, I'll be dropping you where nobody knows......... Jessica........
Head like a stone, stoned like a rock, cloggin' up your nose again, Papa's a searching, devil is a knocking, chills runnin' up my skin, here goes now.
I don't know if there is another thread similar, but just thought I'd make it easier for you!

Does Talahina Sky count?? Or Mollys Hangover? Or Pistol of Fire?

^ Pistol of Fire? That's on ASH! I wasn't sure about Talihina. But Molly's is an alt. version, and I left out all those (Cali Waiting, Wasted Time, Talihina).
I always thought it was 'can hold my own' in WooHoo? Just me?
Also in My Third House it's:
I'm sold from afar But you don't try me I showed you my cars But I don't drive
I'm taken aback Like you don't know You blow me away When you don't try

Crap meant Mark Ronsons remix...Pistol s of Fire Think you've the b-sides pretty much covered! And unless Devil Song is on CAS it's a rare track coz wasn't Jared quoted as saying there's not gonna be any b-sides on this album?

Can anyone guess lyrics to that Dressing Room song? Not 'Fall', the other one.

I know Molly's Hangover is an alternate version but does anyone know where I can find lyrics to the end part where Caleb just starts saying nonsense and broken speech? I'd love to know exactly what he says in some places because when I sing it I just make up words because I can't figure it out. Haha

Of a sweet morning yet the days are gone, place in my memories is turning to stone Look over yonder, bring on the blues, them wild, wild horses they’re coming for you They’re coming for you
And the wheel goes around, seasons change, (falling, fall?) And the wheel goes around, seasons change, falling, fall
Wake up young lover, stay here with me, life is for living and dreams are for sleep We’ll walk together, we’ll make a stand, cos’ love is the answer, time is at hand, oh time is at hand
And the wheel goes around, seasons change, falling, fall And the wheel goes around, seasons change, falling, fall Falling, fall, all around me, colours around me and they all fall down
And the wheel goes around, seasons change, falling, fall, god damn And now wake up young lover stay here with me, life is for living and dreams are for sleep We’ll walk together, we’ll make a stand, cos love is the answer and time is at hand I say wake up young lover, stay here with me, cos life is for living and dreams are for sleep, We’ll walk together, we’ll make a stand, cos love is the answer time is at hand Cos love is the answer time is at hand
Sorry for the layout but thats my attempt at Fall. Some parts are virtually incomprehensible lol so ive made a stab at them!
