Regarding the song Broken Face...
Is the chorus:
"I got no lips, I got no tongue, where there should be eyes, there's only space"
or
"I got no lips, I got no tongue, whatever I say is only spit"
Lyrics site say the second, but on bootlegs it sounds like the first. Any opinions? |

| It's the first one. Have you tried Alec Eiffel? That's the definite Pixies page, I believe they say the first is true. |

I've always thought it was the first.
Well, except: "I got no lips / I got no tongue / Where there were eyes / There's only space"

yeah,
the DTTP "golden ticket" version is very clear, and it's definitely what ObfuscateByWill said.... |

Ah, those darned communists, it wasn't enough what they did already, they had to go and confuse people as to the correct pixies lyrics. This wasn't how Marx intended it to be...
Download the song mother banger by chris morris. It's a pixies parody and it's genius. |
