The Lit album

"Heathens" Twenty One Pilots.

https://youtu.be/UprcpdwuwCg


All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abuse
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abuse
Welcome to the room of people
Who have rooms of people that they loved one day
Docked away
Just because we check the guns at the door
Doesn't mean our brains will change from hand grenades
You'll never know the psychopath sitting next to you
You'll never know the murderer sitting next to you
You'll think, "How'd I get here, sitting next to you?"
But after all I've said, please don't forget
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abuse
We don't deal with outsiders very well
They say newcomers have a certain smell
You have trust issues, not to mention
They say they can smell your intentions
You'll never know the freak show sitting next to you
You'll have some weird people sitting next to you
You'll think "How did I get here, sitting next to you?"
But after all I've said, please don't forget
All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abuse
All my friends are heathens, take it slow (Watch it)
Wait for them to ask you who you know (Watch it)
Please all my friends are heathens, take it slow (Watch it)
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Why'd you come? You knew you should have stayed
I tried to warn you just to stay away
And now they're outside ready to bust
It looks like you might be one of us.
 
Love Stinks, J Geils Band (at least the first verse)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=E0LAs7X5ybE

You love her
But she loves him
And he loves somebody else
You just can't win
And so it goes
'Til the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry
I've had the blues
The reds and the pinks
One thing for sure

(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks
Yeah, yeah
 
Wavin' My Dick In The Wind - Ween

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F39uC9IlI0

I'm waving my dick in the wind, waving my dick in the wind
If it all goes right, I'll be in your arms tonight
But I'm waving my dick in the wind
I'm lost in the sauce once again, I'm lost in the sauce once again
If I make it through the night, everything will be alright
But I'm lost in the sauce once again
 
Wavin' My Dick In The Wind - Ween

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F39uC9IlI0

I'm waving my dick in the wind, waving my dick in the wind
If it all goes right, I'll be in your arms tonight
But I'm waving my dick in the wind
I'm lost in the sauce once again, I'm lost in the sauce once again
If I make it through the night, everything will be alright
But I'm lost in the sauce once again


Didn't know this song. LMAO!

I'm waving my dick in the wind, waving my dick in the wind
If it all goes right, I'll be in your arms tonight

If I make it through the night, everything will be alright
But I'm lost in the sauce once again

Bahahaha. Made me think of this. I'll match.

Dick In The Air - Peaches
 
For those who have contemplated a break or a departure from Lit

Should I Stay or Should I Go, the Clash

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xMaE6toi4mk

Darlin' you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

It's always tease tease tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine and next is black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
And if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know
 
Rock and Roll Doctor - Little Feat

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3LNhZ7msI4

Look at the album cover, I always thought it was funny who's driving the car, and who's the passenger. :)

There was a woman in Georgia didn't feel just right
She had fever all day and chills at night
Now things got worse, yes a serious bind
At times like this it takes a man with such style I cannot often find
A doctor of the heart and a doctor of mind

If you like country with a boogie beat he's the man to meet
If you like the sound of shufflin' feet he can't be beat
If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the Rock and Roll doctor's advice

It's just a country town but patients come
From Mobile to Moline from miles around
Nagodoches to New Orleans
In beat-up old cars or in limousines
To meet the doctor of soul, he's got his very own thing

Two degrees in be-bop, a PHD in swing
He's the master of rhythm he's a rock and roll king

^^^I love that song :heart:

I Want You To Want Me - Cheap Trick

Get you falling in love at the end of the night
That good hit, that long trip, that sugar on your lips
That favorite habit, you gotta have it you can't quit
I got your fix

I'll be the high that never lets you down (I got your fix)
The one you crave when no one is around
I'll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go, hey hey

So leave, oh just leave
Listen, baby baby baby baby girl
Let me make you feel better
Please, please, please, please
I'm what you need

I'll be your smooth ride, that late night, your Walter White high
I'll be your first time, that's so right,
Get you falling in love at the end of the night

That favorite habit, you gotta have it you can't quit
I got your fix

The one you crave when no one is around
I'll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go,

Yeah, come on baby, yeah, oh oh oh

The one you crave when no one is around

I'll be your smooth ride, that late night, your Walter White high
I'll be your first time, that's so right,
Get you falling in love at the end of the night
That good hit, that long trip, that sugar on your lips

The one you crave when no one's around
I'll pick you up and never let you go (I got your fix)
Never let you go, hey hey
 
I’m so many ways....

"Take Your Time"

https://youtu.be/iXi6IHFHeIA

I don't know if you were looking at me or not
You probably smile like that all the time
And I don't mean to bother you but
I couldn't just walk by
And not say, "Hi"

And I know your name
'Cause everybody in here knows your name
And you're not looking for anything right now
So I don't wanna come on strong
Don't get me wrong

Your eyes are so intimidating
My heart is pounding but
It's just a conversation
No, girl I'm not wasted
You don't know me
I don't know you but I want to

I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just wanna take your time

I don't wanna wreck your Friday
I ain't gonna waste my lines
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time

And I know it starts with "Hello"
And the next thing you know you're trying to be nice
And some guy's getting too close
Trying to pick you up
Trying to get you drunk

And I'm sure one of your friends is about to come over here
'Cause she's supposed to save you from random guys
That talk too much and wanna stay too long
It's the same old song and dance but I think you know it well

You could've rolled your eyes
Told me to go to hell
Could've walked away
But you're still here
And I'm still here
Come on let's see where it goes

I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just wanna take your time

I don't have to meet your mother
We don't have to cross that line
I don't wanna steal your covers
I just wanna take your time

I don't wanna go home with you

I just wanna be alone with you

I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just wanna take your time

I don't wanna blow your phone up
I just wanna blow your mind
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time

No, I ain't gotta call you baby
And I ain't gotta call you mine
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time
 
The song as a whole doesn’t really fit, but one line from The Bird by the Time would.

This song ain’t for everybody, just the sexy people
 
for the PGers you were friends with that just disappeared and you miss..

Bobby Jean - Bruce Springsteen
https://youtu.be/TuyXZLdfSCQ (live with Eddie Vedder)


Well I came by your house the other day, your mother said you went away
She said there was nothing that I could have done, there was nothing nobody could say
Now me and you we've known each other ever since we were sixteen
I wished I would have known, I wished I could have called you
Just to say goodbye Bobby Jean

Now you hung with me when all the others turned away, turned up their nose
We liked the same music, we liked the same bands, we liked the same clothes
Yeah we told each other that we were the wildest, the wildest things we'd ever seen
Now I wished you would have told me, I wished I could have talked to you
Just to say goodbye Bobby Jean

Now we went walking in the rain talking about the pain from the world we hid
Now there ain't nobody, nowhere nohow gonna ever understand me the way you did
Well maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere, in some bus or train travelling along
In some motel room there'll be a radio playing and you'll hear me sing this song
Well if you do, you'll know I'm thinking of you and all the miles in between
And I'm just calling one last time, not to change your mind, but just to say I miss you baby
Good luck, goodbye Bobby Jean
 
To clarify: I don't think love stinks. :D Just the first few lines of that song could resonate.

Anyhow, this song speaks to the ambivalence one can feel toward Lit. The video, as weird as it is, could kinda fit, too.

(ETA: You all are doing a great job, hitting a lot more angles than I had expected, and in creative ways)

Mary Jane's Last Dance, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aowSGxim_O8

She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-lookin' mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights

Well, she moved down here the age of eighteen
She blew the boys away, it was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started groovin'
She said, "I dig you baby, but I got to keep movin' on
Keep movin' on"

Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
I'm tired of screwin' up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

Last dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creepin' in and I'm tired of this town again

There's pigeons down on Market Square
She's standin' in her underwear
Lookin' down from a hotel room
The nightfall will be comin' soon

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes.
You got to put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
I hit my last number, I walked to the road

Dirty Work Steely Dan

https://youtu.be/E6G8595SO7M

Times are hard
You're afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody
Who can do the job for free
When you need a bit of lovin'
'Cause your man is out of town
That's the time you get me runnin'
And you know I'll be around

I'm a fool to do your dirty work
Oh yeah
I don't wanna do your dirty work
No more
I'm a fool to do your dirty work
Oh yeah

Light the candle
Put the lock upon the door
You have sent the maid home early
Like a thousand times before
Like the castle in its corner
In a medieval game
I foresee terrible trouble
And I stay here just the same
I'm a fool to do your dirty work
Oh yeah
 
Lovin’ Touchin’ Squeezin’ Journey
the best evah cheatin’ revenge song

https://youtu.be/fTkHFQC3wow

You make me weep and want to die
Just when you said we'd try
Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other
When I'm alone all by myself
You're out with someone else
Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other
You're tearin' me apart
Every day, every day
You're tearin' me apart
Oh what can I say?
You're tearin' me apart

It won't be long, yes, till you're alone
When your lover, oh, he hasn't come home
'Cause he's lovin' who he's touchin', he's squeezin' another

He's tearin' you apart
Ooh, every day, every day
He's tearin' you apart
Oh girl what can you say?
'Cause he's lovin', touchin' another
Now it's your turn, girl, to cry

Na na na na na na
Na na na na na
and sing it loudly!
 
Terrible song, but it does speak to the significant others who have no idea Lit exists

Smoke From a Distant Fire, Sanford-Townsend Band

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wCWVuCCWqzQ

You left me here on your way to paradise
You pulled the rug right out from under my life
I know where you goin' to I knew when you came home last night
'Cause your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Lord, I was stung shoulda' seen it come a long time ago.
When I realized the reality gave me a role
If things are the same then explain why your kiss is so cold
And that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire in my soul


Welp, we’re getting grim here. Someone think of something more fun that fits the album. :)

Why Don’t We Get Drunk, Jimmy Buffett

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LL9O0B0gzZE

I really do appreciate the fact you're sittin' here
Your voice sounds so wonderful
But your face don't look too clear
So, Barmaid, bring a pitcher, another round of brew
Honey, why don't we get drunk and screw.

Why don't we get drunk and screw
I just bought a waterbed filled up for me and you
They say you are a snuff queen, Honey, I don't think that's true
So, why don't we get drunk and screw.
 
Demi Moore - Phoebe Bridgers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lMXZg8BCHA

Take a dirty picture, babe
I can't sleep and I miss your face
In my hands and in my knees
Tell me what you wanna do to me
Tell me what you'll do, please
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone anymore
You got quiet on the other line
Said the sun was coming up
And I laughed until I couldn't breathe
Now I'm too tired to go to sleep
Now I can't breathe, and I can't sleep
 
Sex Is On Everyone's Tongue - Alisha's Attic

https://youtu.be/KYReypjI-FE

Sex is on everyone's tongue
Everybody wants to be tied up with someone
Expectations are higher than kites
I see through it sometimes

Sex is on everyone's tongue
Everybody wants to get a quick hit a quick fix
And that's just what's going on
Makes me wonder sometimes
Why we all play the game

Kissing perfect strangers with no shame
We don't catch their name
Cos we'll never fall in love
That's a word we don't get
Enough of

Sex is on everyone's tongue
Who cares if you've got your heart and soul on
Cos we don't look no further than the smile on the face
Of the porcelain basin you've painted on

Ooh lies are on everyone's tongue
Sweet gentle words never
Come out of no one
We're all secretly looking for better
It's so funny sometimes
Why we all play the game

Kissing perfect strangers with no shame
We don't catch their name
Cos we'll never fall in love
That's a word we don't get
Enough of

So tied up in the fun
It's so easy to go along
All this talking is
Getting crazy
We'll get no work done

Sex is on everyone's tongue
Everybody wants to be tied up with someone
Expectations are higher than kites
I see through it sometimes

Sex is on everyone's tongue.
