I met a man
he was a good man.
Sailin' and shorin'
dancing the beta can-can
making me foreign, aaaah yeah.
Los Angeles

When i saw your fine physique
I was into you like a train
And I love it when you speak you're so urbane
I love Your Brain
I was driving across the valley floor
Going past a scene of gore
Something that had ended here
Then I stopped in at a porno store
And I found among the pictures there
A vision that was very fair
Just a moment from yesteryear
All I could do was stare
All my ghosts
"I'll have the cheese and eggs, scrambled,with plain toast,grits,bacon and hashbrowns scattered and covered." |

Going out to Llano, Llano Del Rio, Try to find Utopia, In the stucco grids and tumbleweeds... going out to Llano, Going to look for Aldous Huxley, There beween the power lines, And the purple flowers of mescaline...
I got a mouthful of suicidal drugs (Hermaphrotitos)
You put on your camisole, And I'll jump in the rabbit hole (Hysterical - Chip Away Boy)
At the End of MILES you stare out at the ocean, Mountains at your back you think you've tamed...
Motel alone decor perplexes, ringing in my ear and now the phone, in San Antone the state of Texas, Hearing you my dear I'm all alone...(San Antonio, Texas)
I'm just another TEN PERCENTER, my mind is like an ocean.. I'm hangin' in the harbour... Oh suck a syrup and soda, Oh dance oh sons and daughters, I'm a jerk (for the Igster)
I could go on all day as well.

Disclaimer: Whatever the opposite of superfluous is, that's what this, and all our sampling of lines will necessarily be.
"like Jesus Christ on the hill, I'll be blue."
"they compiled a wish list from Mars to duels to a dish kissed I tried to talk to the ishist."
"You looked at me like I was a snark while your head was extremely mentally blocked"
All of Dog Gone
"I`ll be suffering up around the bend"
All of Western Star
"sucking syrup and soda"
"Paddle the paddle to side to the side to the side to the side to the paddle the paddle to paddle the paddle to side to the side"
"Used to be Juan Wayne"
"i wanna sleep with your brain"
"a spot of blue in the black of the eye of the Lord"
All of South Bay
"i'm going to make my mark maybe in show biz . . . i do not know. But i'm thinking all the time and i'm saving all my dimes"
"and when we get there the irish in me's gonna claim it for France"
"Excuse me please--do you have the time? And can you tell me what's it matter anyway"
"you're oblivious to me . . . talking in the dark through my favorite scene."
"Bartholomew, how'd you end up in the coffee?"
From an Icon Interview I think:
"I didn't go around and declare that I was influential - other people did. I just put out records, like other people put out records. So as far as dethroning me, no one needs to do that. I'm not sitting on any kind of throne. I'm just a guy who makes records."
There's a lot of other examples of the pearls he's forced to spit out when the interviewer is an idiot. Instead of humoring the interviewer, Frank humors himself.

And the winner is.... quote:
"once I lay beside a stream
and I looked into it
a dandelion next to me
and then I blew it
my life was scattered in the breeze"
That is so so sweet...

Good question, Bazza
For my money, the lyrics for Places Named After Numbers is absolutely as good as it gets.
I was just recently pointing out, on another forum, that I find rare occasions where lyrics and poetry intersect...that was definitely one of my examples. |

"Don't worry, don't let yourselfdown, don't let your mind chase you like a hound"
and
"Don’t get your spirits high/they’ll all come crashing down/don’t let your trumpet sound/you'll be left wondering why"
This is great poetry

Here are a few I like from the Blogcritics.org:
I prefer to let the Pixies live where they are in the past
On why not release one album instead of two,
What are you saying? Which songs don't you like?
On a Pixies reunion,
Know any promoters that want to do a show on the moon?
Doolittle is Doolittle. There will never be another Doolittle.
I'm not sure I quite understand your position. Would you rather be skateboarding or something?
You have a very odd way of connecting things. I don't understand why you feel there needs to be litigation.
If you feel cheated because you purchased two songs of mine that happen to feature an overlapped chorus (not a bridge) then feel free to patronize another artist. As far as running out if ideas is concerned, that's for you, my darling critic, to decide on your own.
You have no idea what my feelings are towards Kim Deal, or anybody else for that matter. You should never rely on interviews with musicians as being factual. Most of them are mangled and even have made up stuff in them, that is to say, made up stuff by the writer or editor. I wonder how mangled this one is going to turn out.
