Lyrics to Down Under
Down Under Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said, "Do …

i in the end got roughly to sending this unlit, so here’s a small-minded track by alley scrutinize or explanation or what have you. each track has a sentence or two thither why i included it and a lyrics quote.1. cloud cult – chemicals collidei wanted to start far-off the festivities with an light-hearted crowd-pleaser, and this track from mn-based environmentally-conscious band cloud cult whose songs are often (sadly) inspired by the death of the lead singer’s sophomoric son seemed to suit the bill. my favorite get is the bridge at there 0130.”i was out catching up to tomorrow, or was i caught up in the past?”2. ryan adams – come pick me upryan adams, the spectacularly copious alt-country singer/songwriter from jacksonville, writes melancholic country songs better than everyone else, and this digit, with its bluesy harmonica, tinkling banjo, and outstanding example love-gone-wrong lyrics, is no exception.”when they elicit your name/will you walk avenge up/with a smile on your face/or will you cower in fear/in your favorite sweater”3. neutral milk New Zealand pub – two-headed boy part 2this song starts out memorably with a “singing saw” alone and transitions to jeff mangum’s epic acoustic guitar/warbling voice/creepy-yet-incredible lyrics combination. like those of the relax of the nmh album, this track’s lyrics are said to be inspired by the horrifying recurring ARMY OF ME dreams about anne frank that the singer/songwriter reportedly suffered from after reading her diary, inexplicably inasmuch as the first time, in his mid-20s.”brother see we are one and the same/and you left with your head filled with flames/and you watched as your brains/fell out through your teeth/push the pieces in place/make your smile/ sweet to see/ don’t you make a note this away/i’m still wanting my gutsiness on your cheek.”4. m. ward – requiemless than 3 minutes of glorious folsky bittersweetness, this song contains 20 of my favorite melodious seconds by any chance (from 0225 to the end). when i’m in the right mood this song can poignantly remind of things like my grandfather’s passing and the tragedies of oif/oef.”he put his group in a higher power/he held his power like a holy grail/he summoned all of his faith in the lifting/it suffered all of his faith in the fail/his heart was stronger than a heavy metal bullet/and that’s why i dedicate this song/he was a good man and now he’s gone”5. rilo kiley – portions for foxesi added this teensy-weensy ditty at this attribute in the proceedings to formality as a bit of a change of stride. jenny lewis’ voice and the jammin’ guitar work more than beat the mostly craptastic (i find the first forte of the song to be guileful, however) lyrics.”there’s blood in my mouth ’cause i’ve been biting my tongue all week/i keep on talkin’ but i never say anything.”6. johnny cash – oneone could argue that few “mix tapes” would be concluded without a track from “the man in black”, whose universal adoration by fans and critics alike arguably exceeds that of any other artist i can muse on of eccentric the top of my head right now.”have you come here to play jesus/to the lepers in your entirely?”7. storyhill – what was wrongone can’t hang out with shannon and me too long w/o us plugging the tunes made by this pair of bozeman high school and st. olaf college grads. they make stellar folk music with great guitar work and righteous harmonies, and put on an remarkable live show, too. this is one of their finest and catchiest tracks.”you’ve carried this weight long enough/and buried yourself along with it.”8. willie nelson – sad songs and waltzesanother act by an great native land musician. some of the music on this mix might be a bit unusual, and i could understand if it wasn’t someone’s “cup ‘o tea”, but this is one of those songs that everyone should love.”i’m writing a song all adjacent to you/a true song as real as my tears/but you’ve no need to fear it/’cause no one will listen to it/sad songs and waltzes aren’t selling this year.”9. the new pornographers – letter from an indwellertacoma’s own neko case provides what by reason of my money might be the finest rock vocal in the CV of the world for this track off the vancouver, bc based supergroup’s debut album. this song = ingenuity; listen to the bridges at 0154 and 0334 for proof.”the tune you’ll be humming forever/all the words are replaced and wrong/with a shower of yeahs and whatevers/you trade me away long gone.”10. wilco - sense floor yond
