Sonic Youth

Sonic Youth - 6s Album guitar tab

From: mpc@ursula (Miguel Pupo Correia)

Subject: * LYRICS *

The following information was gathered by Brian Chambers

(DOdGe), using sources such as his Sonic Youth CD collection,

the inner-sleaves accompanying each CD and a book called

SONIC YOUTH/SONIC LIFE.

The Albums included in this file include:

Confusion Is Sex

Bad Moon Rising

Evol

Sister

Daydream Nation

Goo

Not all the songs from the Albums included have their lyrics

here.

I typed the lyrics as they were written (as I found them),

but I have noticed that some of them seem to be wrong. Some

words have been changed for others, and sometimes complete

lines have been both included and forgotten. BUT, this is the

way they have been released. Also most of the spelling

mistakes found within the lyrics were as they were in their

original sources.

CONFUSION IS SEX

----------------

(She's In A) Bad Mood

She's in a bad mood - but I won't fall for it

I believe all her lies - but I can't fall for it

Protect Me You

Protect me from ravagement

I'm ten years old

I don't know what to do

Protect me myself

I'm fourteen

There's nothing to do

Protect me yourself

I'm sixteen

Protect me from starving

I'm eighteen

Protect me you

I don't know what to do

Protect me demons

That come at night

I don't know what they say

Their whispering

Sends the night air away

And makes me forget

I hope they come

Again and again

Shaking Hell

She's finally discovered she's a...

He told her so.

She's a...

Come closer and I'll tell you

I'll take off your dress

Shake off your flesh

Devil may cure

Devil may come

Devil may not

Turn around

Turn around

Shake

Inhuman

My body is a past time

my mind is a simple joy

I learn my lesson

The hardest way

But you don't know me

And you don't need me

A complete inhuman

The World Looks Red

Push it away

The world looks red

People with fish eyes

The ground sucks

Walk on my fingertips

Displacing the fog

The weight of my body

is too mush to bear

The memory drained

the life from the dull

An ocean of insects

worked like a sheet

the immovable fact

Buried my mind

in a horse-hair coat

in a pile

on the floor

Confusion Is Next

I maintain that:

Chaos is the future and beyond it is freedom

Confusion is next and next after that is the truth

You got to cultivate what you need to need: Sonic Tooth

Stick your fingers in your mouth

squeeze your tongue and wrench it out

From its ugly fucking cancer root

You got to cultivate what you need to need: Sonic Tooth

Making The Nature Scene

Going back to these origins

The city is a natural scape

order in the details

Confusion uproar in the whole

In nature reality is selection

the tool of critical intervention

Fragmentation is the rule

Unity is not taught in school

You are an unnatural growth

On a funny sunny street

The city has forgotten you

It's symbols of the past

The meaning of its state

Its order of decay

Standing now in columns

making the nature scene

making the nature scene

waiting to make their pay

There is no resistance to

the signs along the way

standing all in columns

waiting to make their pay

making the nature scene

Waiting for the day

There is no resistance to

There is no resistance to

Salvation means to count on you

It just means to count on you

Make the nature scene

Making the nature scene

Making the nature scene

Making the nature scene

BAD MOON RISING

---------------

Society Is A Hole

Society is a hole

it makes me lie to my friends

it's running down my street

with white powers sneakers

on the beautiful beat of black feet

society is a hole

it beats my friends big heads

my friends have big heads, I can understand it

but I don't recommend it

you got big big hair

and everybody is scared

society is a hole

it makes me lie to my friends

the assault of holy music

there's a slap in my face

my friends are girls wrapped in boys

we're living in pieces

I want to live in peace

I Love Her All The Time

She comes into my mind

twisting thru my nerves

I don't understand a word she says

she's on my side

I love her all the time

I love her all the time

I love her all the time

I love her all the time

Ghost Bitch

Slowly pour the liquid down

for miles and miles it flows along

rose coloured neon lighted

swirl and turn around

feel the touch of my hand

swirl around turn around

fellow shadows black and blue

all around all around

locking arms side by side

crouch down before the fire's light

you're the first day of my life

I had no belief before

until I had this dream last night

I still remember their savage cries

so serious in their rite

faces painted in joyous fright

in the dawns early light

oh say did you see the colour of my eternity

and the sweat on my skin

our founding fathers laid right down

and indian ghost from long ago

they gave birth to my bastard kin

America it is called

a sensation of eternity

locking arms side by side

crouch down before fire's light

you're the first day of my life

Justice is Might

This song is called justice is might

it's about sonik life it's about Lee is free

you have a genius and a sex maniac

living together taking lots of drugs

and fucking all day and you know

it's just like staying at home and risking your life

I know it's wrong

but that is all right

as long as it's strong

it's just that it might

justice is might

justice is might

Death Valley '69

Coming down

Sadie I love it

now now now

Death Valley '69

"You're right, you're right, you're right, you're right"

I was on the wrong track, we're deep in the valley

how deep in the gulley, and now in the canyon

way out in the yonder, she started to holler

I didn't wanna, I didn't wanna, I didn't wanna

but she started to holler do I had to hit it

hit it - hit it - hit it - hit it

deep in the valley in the trunk of an old car

in the back of a Chevy

I got sand in my mouth

and you got sun in your eyes blinded

and you wanted to get there

but I couldn't go faster

it couldn't go faster

so I started to hit it

so I started to hit it - hit it - hit it - hit it

coming down - Sadie I love it

now now now Death Valley '69

EVOL

----

Green Light

I kneel before the green light

of her singing crayon eyes

and then I kiss her stomach

and it's then I realize:

her light is the night

I'm not blind, I believe in you

I see a green light

Starpower

Spinning dreams + angel wings

torn blue jeans + a foolish grin

burning down in the night

so cool + so right

starpower starpower starpower

over me

she knows how to make love to me

she knows how to make love

close my eyes + think of you

everything turns black to blue

starpower starpower starpower

over me

Tom Violence

My violence is a dream

a 'real dream'

a skinny arm

a crush on living sin

my violence

is a sleeping head

nodding out to rising bliss

I left home for experience

carved 'suk for honesty' on my chest

my violence is the number

coming out of prayer

find it in the father

find it in a girl

there's a thing in my memory

hoilding on for dear life

with a feeling of secrets

beating up under my flesh

my tongue is tied

I'm sleeping nights awake

Tom violence is a dream

coming out of a girl

Madonna, Sean and Me (The crucifixion of Sean Penn)

We're gonna kill the California girls

we're gonna fire the exloading load

in the milk maid maiden head

we're gonna find the meaning

of feeling good

and we're gonna stay together

as long as we think we should

Met a stranger on a train

he bumped right into me

I swear I didn't mean it

I swear it wasn't meant to be

from the bottom of my heart

he was looking all over me

"You take me & I'll be you"

"You kill him & I'll kill her"

kiss me

I swear I didn't mean it

I swear it wasn't meant to be

kiss me in the shadow

kiss me in the shadow of a doubt

must a been a dream

kiss me

kiss me in the shadow

in the shadow of a doubt

In The Kingdom #19

We move along so quickly on roads going nowhere. I ride

for hours under the spell of the asphalt. Days, and still

end up in the same spot. Inside the same mind.

Same life. Same dreams.

My body seems to move.

My eyes tell me that I move, have motion, and yet my

feet have not left their tracks. I am stable, motionless.

Unable to take another step. Highways are evil, God is

a man standing still, one who knows he is.

What kind of journeis do we expect?

Where can we travel? Some sit complacent,

some rush about to gasp at life.

Can we travel in our minds? With our bodies, in cars,

etc.? Cars blasting through space, unaware of the

natural world, destroying all in their path.

Animals birds cats racoons dogs people all fall before

THE CAR AND DRIVER. Sides of buildings..

The CAR AND DRIVER belong to a different species,

at odds with life. We must learn the secrets of

instantaneous transport.

Transportation systems are ludicrous.

There was a guy, a forever-boy man touched in the head,

who would go around picking up the carcasses of the

dead animals on the highway. So many, so many

unseen from car windows at 60 mph, and he'd take

them off and bury them. That much is clear. The first

time he found one still panting with the breath of life he

took it home with him and, not knowing what else to do,

cared for it. Put a splint on the leg, and bandages. After

awhile there were quite a few that he'd nursed back to

health. Sometimes they left back to the woods, but

mostly they hung around his...the place he lived. He still

went with touched slightly askew reverence to pick up

the dead ones, stiff and cold or red and sticky. It was his

mission. Somehow without words he knew this. Felt it.

Words lead one down certain regular, pre-defined pathways

but they can be constricting.

Words. Logic. Thought.

Reason. Without the words one may have to travel

slower, with a candle in the dark

instead of hi-beams on the interstate.

Where worlds collide...But you move into a different

place without words, a different vision.

He didn't know any of this,

he couldn't think of it,

yet he knew enough to perservere.

With certainty. Unquestioningly. Word-less-ly.

He picked up two one day both living and within half a

mile of each other. The distance between us...

black asphalt hiway recedes...converging at the infinite

horizon. One of them died on the way, in his hands. He

felt neither anger nor remorse, but merely buried it

as he did the others.

Marilyn Moore

Sound asleep till right until day

frustrated desire turns you away

and turns you insane

over and over

you get to a point

to make it disappear

and you're always believing

and believing in fear

over and over

it's always a headache the size of a tour truck

she's full of disorders, depends what you're used to

she's talking of tranches of truncheons in battle

of bruises from bottles that never get better

bad baby bitching she screams at the door

hammer in hand & her head to the floor

SISTER

------

Schizophrenia

I went away to see an old friend of mine

His sister came over she was out of her mind

She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin

She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in

Her light eyes were dancing she is insane

Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain

Shw keeps coming closer saying "I can feel it in my bones

Schizophrenia is taking me home"

My Future is static

It's already had it

I could tuck you in

And we can talk about it

I had a dream

And it split the scene

But I got a hunch

It's coming back to me

(I Got A) Catholic Block

I got a catholic block

inside my head

I let it go to work

Bring it all back home

It serves you right

And I can motor down

You got to earn yr freedom

Get it on my own

I just live 4ever

There just is no end

I just trust the oppression

Like I trust yr friends

I got a catholic block

Inside my head

I let it play around

Iron to gold

Come back to me awhile

I got a catholic block it's around my head

I got a catholic block and it's blood orange red

I got a catholic block do you like to fuck?

I got a catholic block guess I'm out of luck

Beauty Lies in the Eye

There's something in the air

makes you go insane

brings it back to me

It's been so long

and alls I have to do

is live along

Coming coming down

over me

Do you want to see

the explosions in my eye

Do you want to see

the reflection of

how it used to be

Beauty is in the eyes of anothers dreams

Do you want to see

the explosions in my eye

Do you want to see the

reflection of how it used to be

Beauty Lies

Stereo Sanctity

I'm keeping my commission to faith's transmission

Two speakers dream the same and skies turn red

Satellites flashing down orchard and delancey

I can't get laid cuz everyone is dead

Hey - gold connections

Analog soul waving in yr hair

Hey - hylozoic directions

She's talking blue streaks everywhere

Your spirit is time-reversed to your body

Stereographic mix-up field on field

It started growing up the day your body dies

Only apparently, real to irreal

Hey - stereo stations

Perfect image, kneel down

Hey - hypostatic information

Come on let's hear you turn it around

Pipeline / Kill Time

Stretch me to the point where I stop

Run ten thousand miles and then think of me

I think you know the place we should meet

Don't worry if it's dark and I'm late

Run me out a thin wire

Help me to kill this, love

I'll meet you tonite at the bottom of the well

Just feel around in the dark until you get the idea

I'm not moving doesn't mean I can't

Flame on in my head

My best friend sucked his wife's blood an shriveled up

He was mistaken for sane

We move and groove and cut loose from fear

We should kill time, we'll shut it down

I've got a pipeline straight to the heart of you

Opening in my head

Bright glass on a chair being wound around us

The toiling of idle hands

Dripping,

w guilt

A secret form of punishment

Axes thru skulls

Shadow of futility

Endless / revolt

The shining of light and shadows

Dividing each existance

No-one is right

Nothing is solid

Nothing can be held in my hands for long

Discontinuity

Sandy beaches

Bridges sinking into the sea

Beautiful confusion

You're a fading memory

We should kill time

Tuff Gnarl

He's running on a tuff gnarl in his head he's got a fatal

erection home in bed

He's really smart and he's really fast he's got a hard tit

killer fuck in his past

Saints perserve us in hot young stuff the saving grace is a

sonic pig pile

Amazing grazing strange and raging flies are flaring thru

your brains

Spastic flailing literally raising my roof

An adrenal mental man-tool box explodes in music creates

utopia

You gnarl out on my nerves you weird and crush the cranking

raunch

Flesh dirt forcefield lost and found let's burn your broken

heart

Set our sights on sights not yet set let's scorch your wavo

wig

Let's poke your eyes out

White Cross

Burning inside

(I cross myself

it doesn't help)

because I'm not smart enough

(digging into

hot white)

learning not to lie

(we cross it out

and stay away)

another sonic life

Pacific Coast Highway

Comon get in the car

Cotton Crown

Love has come to stay in all the way

its gonna stay forever and every day

it feels like a wish coming true

it feels like an angel dreaming of you

feels like heaven forgiving and getting

feels like we're fading and celebrating

you got a carnal spirit spraying

I'm gonna laugh it up

You got a cotton crown I'm gonna keep it underground

you're gonna take control of the chemistry

and you're gonna manifest the mystery

you got a magic wheel in your memory

I'm wasted in time and I'm looking everywhere

I don't care where

I don't care where

angels are dreaming of you

angels are dreaming of you

New York City is forever kitty

I'm wasted in time and you're never ready

fading fading celebrating

I got your cotton crown

DAYDREAM NATION

---------------

Silver Rocket

Snake in it

jack into the wall

TV amp on fire

blowin' in the hall

gun yr. sled

close yr. peeping toms

turbo organizer

crankin' on the knob

{Chorus:}

You got it

yeh ride yr silver rocket

nymphoid clamor

fuelling up the hammer

you got to fake out the robot

and pulse up the zoom

{Chorus}

can't forget the flashing

can't forget the smashing

the sending and the bending

the ampisphere re-entry

Teenage Riot

Everybody's talking about the stormy weather

and what's a man to do

but work whether it's true

looking for man with a focus

and a temper

who can open up a map

and see between one and two

time to get it

before you let it get to you

here he comes now

stick to yr. guns and let him through

everybody's coming from their winter vacation

taking in the sun in a exaltation to you

you come running in on a platform shoes

with Marshall stax

to at least you give us a clue

oh hear it comes

I know it's someone I knew

teenage riot in a public station

gonna fight and tear it up

in a hypernation for you

now I see it

think I'll leave it out of the way

now I come near you

it's not clear why you fade away

looking for a ride to your secret location

where the kids are setting up

a free-speed conation for you

gotta a foghorn

and a drum and a hammer that's rocking

and a cord and a pedal and a lock

that'll do for me now

it better work out

it better work out the way

cuz it's getting kinda quiet

in my city's head

takes a teenage riot

to get me out of bed right now

you better look it

we're gonna shake it up to him

he halts the hero

we paint a zero in his hand

we know it's down

we know it's bound to(o) lo(o)se

everybody's sound is round it

everybody wants to be proud to choose

so who's taking the blame

for the stormy weather

you're never gonna stop

all the teenage leather and booze

it's time to go round

a one man showdown

teach us all how to fall

we're off the streets now

and back on the road now

on a riot trail

The Sprawl

To the extent that I wear skirts

and cheap nylon slips

I've gone native

I wanted to know the exact dimension of hell

does this sound simple?

Fuck you! Are you for sale?

Does 'Fuck you' sound simple enough?

This was the only part that turned me on

but he was candy all over

come on down to the store

you can but some more, and more, and more, and more

I grew up in a shotgun row

sliding down the hill

out front were the big machines

steel and rusty now I guess

outback was the river, and that big sign down the road

that's where it all started

come on down to the store

you can borrow some more

and more, and more, and more

Eric's Trip

I can't see anything at all, all I see is me

that's clear enough

and that's whats important, to see me

my eyes can focus

my brain is talking

looks pretty good to me

my head's on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful

looks pretty good to me

sometimes I speak

tonight there's nothing to say

sometimes we freak

and laugh all day

hold these pages up to the light

see the jacknife inside of the dream

a railroad runs through the record stores at night

coming in for the deep freeze

Mary: a simple word, are you there in the country?

Yr eyes so full, yr head so tight

can't you hear me?

Remember our talk

that day on the phone?

I was the door, and you were the station

with shattered glass and miles between us

we still flew away in the conversation

my cup is full, and I feel okay

the world is dull, but not today

she think's she's a goddess

she says she talks to the spirits

I wonder if she can talk to herself?

If you she bear to hear it

this is Eric's trip

we've all come to watch him slip

he's slipping all the way to Texas

can you dig it?

(Eric says "The sky is blue...")

I see with a glass eye

the pavement view

a shadow forming, across the fields rushing

thru me to you

we tore down the world, and put up four walls

I breathe in the myth

I'm over the city, fucking the future

I'm high and inside yr kiss

we can't see clear

but what we see is a alright

we make up what we cant hear

and then we sing all night

scattered pages and shattered lights

a jacknife and a dream

there's something moving over there on the right

like nothing I've never seen

Kissability

Look into my eyes, don't you trust me

yr so good you could go far

I'll put you in a movie, don't you want to

you could be a star

you could go far

you've got twistability

you fly hard, don't you wanna

you've got kissability

you could be a star, it ain't hard

yr driving me crazy, I feel so sick

yr driving me crazy, give us a kiss

look into my eyes, don't you trust me

yr so soft, you make me hard

I'll put you on a movie, don't you wanna

you could be a star, you could go far

you've got kissability

you sigh hard, don't you wanna

you've got twistability

you could be a star, it ain't hard

{Chorus:}

yr driving me crazy, you smell so sick

I feel so tired, you made me sick

yr driving me crazy, if I feel so sick

yr driving me crazy, if I feel so sick

Hey Joni

Hey Joni put it all behind you

hey Joni now I've put it all behind me too

these times can't add up

yr life is such a mess

forget the past, and just say yes

tell me Joni, am I the one to see you through?

In this broken town can you still jack in

and know what to do?

I remember our youth, our high ideasls

I remember you were so uptight

that time in the trees, we broke that vice

we took some steps and now

we can't think twice

tell me Joni, am I right by you?

Tell me how yr gonna lose this hard luck?

Hey Joni, when will all these dreams come true?

You'd better find a way

to climb down off that truck

shots ring out from the center of an empty field

Joni's in the tall grass

she's a beautiful mental jukebox

a sailboat explosion

a snap of electric whipcrack

she's not thinking about the future

not spinning her wheels

she doesn't think at all about the past

she thinking long and hard

about that high wild sound

and wondering will it last?

There's something turning, Joni, turning right to you

my head burns, but I know you'll speak the truth

hey Joni, put it all behind you

hey Joni, now I've put it all behind me too

forget the future

these times are such a mess

tune out the past, and just say yes

it's 1963

it's 1964

it's 1957

it's 1962

put it all behind you

now it's all behind you

The Wonder

See flashing eyes

they're flashing cross to me

burnin up the sky

sunshinin to me

yr locus crown

copkillin heartbeat

head's lookin down

bowin out to the street

I'm just walking around

yr city is a wonder town

lips red to white

lips green in blacked night

yr spirit flares

flarin up leonine

I'm just walking around

transmitter rhyme

transmitter all the time

lookin up to the sky

Tunic (Song for Karen)

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

I look in the mirror

I'm bigger in every way

{Chorus:}

she said you aren't never going anywhere

I ain't never going anywhere

I'm in heaven now, I can see you Richard

goodbye Hollywood, goodbye downey, hello Janis

hello Dennis, Elvis, and all my brand new friends

I'm so glad you're here with me

until the very end

dreaming dreaming of how it's supposed to be

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

{Chorus}

hey mom look I'm up here

I feel like I'm disappearing

getting smaller every day

{Chorus}

now you know you're sure lookin' pretty

rock the beat just a little faster

now I know you are the master

{Chorus}

Cool Thing walkin' like a panther

come on and give me an answer

Cool Thing walkin' like a panther

what he say?

{Chorus}

Mote

When you see the spiral turning for you alone

and you feel so heavy that you just can't stop it

when this sea of madness turns you into stone

a picture of your life shoots like a rocket

all the time

put 'me' in the equation it's alright

I've seen you moving in and out of sight

my friends tell me it's all cut through you

from nowhere to nowhere

cut together cutting through

I'm island-bound, a mote inside my eye

I can't see you breathing as before

I am airless, a vacuum child

I can't stand to reason at your door

in this time

if broken bottles shine like jewells

if this decision points to you

if what you say is ever true

then I'll be fine...

if there's a heart to hide in

if there's a rip in this time

if there's a day that lasts

then I'll be fine...

when the seasons circle sideways out of turn

and words don't speak

just fall across the carpet

you're just in time to watch the fires burn

it seems a crime but yr. face is brigh

you love it

all the time...

I'm down in the daytime out of sight

comin' 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

BONUS TRACK

Lee #2

Thom these days I feel so displaced

nothing feel like anything

there's no room left in this place

I've left my whole life standing

nwo I feel so right

and I can't stop dreaming

now I feel okay

with these thoughts all streaming

now I feel like an angel

grown my own swt of wings

all the boys are one room dipped in time

and girl you're off in the wind

nwo I feel so right

and I can't stop dreaming

now I am the light

that's what I'm feeling

now I feel like an angel

with dark eyes shining

now the world has come undone

no bells are chiming

I'm trying to see this through

to see from me to you

but you can't see me at all

no, you can't see...me

I can't stop this now

no, no that's not what I want

and I can't be the one

to calm you down

Thom these days I feel so displaced

everything here is just televsion

and I'm left off without a trace

of the strength of our vision

this dim-lit reason

twilight rhytm

this infinite season

the big decisions...
