"I'd do anything for deak, but I won't do that."

seriously one of my favorites. Wish they hadn't changed this on the studio version.

hahahaha what is that from?

For me the absolute worst is in Monkey Riches "Lately, I wanna be in my heart/ Where exactly is my heart and where does it start?"
Also the original lyrics for In the Flowers and Summertime Clothes have some bad ones.

My favorite on the other hand has to be "better run while the earth holds this heat" from cobwebs

Really the worst AC lyrics are any of them that aren't screamed

"Bulimic vegetarian wins weight contest" seems way too punchliney to me

some great posts in here guys, I love how confused some people seem

"Sometimes the sun will shine
Unless I am just feeling fine
Sometimes I'm not aware
Where I am or what I care
Sometimes I'm well to do
But I don't know what to do
Sometimes I don't agree
With my thoughts on being free"

I like Forest Gospel, but the straight up drug mentioning is kinda weird to me
I don't like the old version of Daily Routine, "...that shit comes out/gonna be so nice"
Glad they changed it

Isn't that "frightened babies through"?

I've heard CD booklet says "through" and record sleeve says about poo, or vice versa.

it's poo...too bad it isn't through to make the line tolerable, though that makes zero sense

Posted: **Fri Jun 27, 2014 8:37 pm**

that line makes me laugh, so it's good in my book

Has Avey ever said anything about the lyrics that all his best friends using coke pot crack and yeah?

i used to not like this as well but then i thought of how avey being so matter of fact is kinda like a jarring juxtaposition to his usual lyrics, n how the guuitar sounds compliment this, and for a rare moment he's being a person taking a stand uno
a thousand wasted brooklyners ARE depressed
at this rate a bulimic vegetarian will win a weight contest

a lucky child rly dont kno how lucky she is

Any fourth-wall breaking doesn't suit their music.

Posted: **Mon Jun 30, 2014 7:36 pm**

what are you considering a break of the fourth wall? tons of their music is about making music and their own lives.

(and those are my favorite parts)

think stan just really hates Monkey Riches

"It makes me wonder how I even wrote this song"

but that would be implying the engineering is good, considering stan's opinion of him

Yo thats like the best part of the best song on that album

^ Krumping Skelly is right. Those lyrics are cheeky, but not bad. Although for some reason Safer gets on my nerve because it seems like they just created one of those lyric maps of all of their albums and just threw together all the commonly used ones into a blender. They are not bad verse to verse, but they clash and stick. Maybe I'm just a fucking hater on that song though XD

it's actually "the frightened babies threw up poo" if you listen really closely

How does one not love the sad humor of babies pooping? One of the best lyrics for sure

Posted: **Sun Jul 06, 2014 6:26 pm**

ya i dont rlly get everyones beef with that line, i mean it is off-putting at first, but like babies dont not poop, and i guess fireworks rlly could make a baby poop.

Posted: **Sun Jul 06, 2014 6:38 pm**

I also like how right after that line he says "They've got two flashing eyes" but its almost like it sounds like "the frightened babies poo, they've got to!"

cause you know man, babies gotta poo as stated above.

"You can untie ties that have you tied or
Tie unties that are too tight"

I'm still on the fence with these lyrics from Duplex Trip. I can't say that they are trash because a part of me thinks that the word play is so predictable that the lyrics are actually pretty good.
