 Post subject: Ten Cent Blues lyricsPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 4:20 pm 
I was trying to figure out the lyrics for this from the two videos there are of it on youtube but I pretty much failed. While I was doing that I realized that I really, really, really love this song though. I think it's my favorite. I can't tell what it's about that much since I don't know all the lyrics but I love the switching lead vocals and I love how Stacy sings "I can't control my feelings." <333 so here's what I have, the parts in the paranthesis are just placeholders basically because I know they're ridiculous: (do or think talks) I can't control my feelings (and who hid me) I just might be coming round (a 'verse) and I still say (we can't crack things) (consequently torched) and he looked to see that it was she just some abandoned little crook like me adieu, adieu, and fare thee well this was the ending please oh, whoa... I was attached (one day beneath, I declined my leave) but who could blame a fraction of her being she is cheesy, she is scrawny with her uncanny styling I'm teasing, she is pleasing she just has no wit and I'm sorry I don't have her face and I'm probably gonna lose this race there is no doubt she's such a mouse with such an abstract grace oh, whoa... there is no cure, I am sure, for these ten cent blues and then she chose to (die said to) and I was casted into poverty when I did not agree with her she said "you've got nerve" but I don't care if I'm (blasted) for all these things if I were one among this crowd would you hold hands with me in a way it's making me crazy in the sense that it's making me stronger a likely chance and it's probably proven in the end we'll all walk away shaking hands on the (dirt), I salute you, sir stranger than having fits and a part of it and that I saw it all _________________ ASTER (i'll think of a clever signature someday.) |

When Stacy first sings I hear her say "I might as well beat around the bush". I don't think that's right though.

10 cent blues reminds me of this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Yd60nI4sa9A&mode=related&search= http://youtube.com/watch?v=8k6YanLE8WU&mode=related&search= delta blues - its not modern in any sense but its a ghost blowing cold smoke up your spine. |

Dear orthodox I can't control my feelings and who hit me? I just might be coming round the bush and my stilts they began cracking subsequently pushed and I looked to see that it was she just some abandoned little crook like me adieu, adieu, and fare thee well this was the ending please oh, whoa... I was attached on bended knee, yet I declined my leave but who could blame a fraction of her being she is cheesy, she is scrawny with her uncanny styling I'm teasing, she is pleasing she just has no wit and I'm sorry I don't have her face and I'm probably gonna lose this race there is no doubt she's such a mouse with such an abstract grace oh, whoa... there is no cure, I am sure, for these ten cent blues and then she chose to dissect me and I was casted into poverty when I did not agree with her she said "you've got nerve" but I don't care if I'm granted for all these things if I were one among this crowd would you call that defeat? in a way it's making me crazy in the sense that it's making me stronger a likely chance and it's probably proven in the end we'll all walk away shaking hands on the doormat, I salute you, sir (stranger than having fits and a part of it) not sure about this line and that I saw it all |
