A hopeless investigation begun
 
Righteous little witch
I didn't dig that hole.
(excised) Down in the same ditch
You're running from ________
Make me hot _______ me cold
Did it make you feel clever?
Do you quiver for a crown?
And if you pull a little begger
You might blow yourself down.


*sigh* Oh, I know, my friends: I'm sorta defining irony. I absolutely shouldn't but I can't control myself!:crybaby2:

Sound familiar?:confused:

To empathize with poor lil' sleep deprived Damo "....Fruitcake?". :smiley5:

Righteous little witch
I didn't dig that hole
down in the same ditch (replaced by 'your running past...')
make me hot, me cold
did it make you feel clever
do you quiver for a crown
and if you puff a little
you might blow your...

But what is your question?

SisterMidnight 11-12-2006 06:11 PM

what are you guys talking about?

ste_swann 11-12-2006 06:13 PM

Ah! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who just doesn't understand :)

Spamlet 11-12-2006 06:15 PM

Wheels,

You da mang. :icon_pray

My question was "sound familiar?"

I was being intentionally vague as sort of a test to see if anyone else was as obsessive as I to have tried deciphering it. Now I know at least one other is. :hello:

I knew "pull" couldn't be right but in my 40-hours-without-sleep- deprived-state the obvious hadn't occurred!

Is it beggar? Still doesn't quite fit but better than anything else I auditioned (better, bigger, bugger etc.)

So I'll officially ask this now: have you actually heard or only seen that?

Wheels 11-12-2006 08:38 PM

Ahh I just saw it on that promo video thingy... maybe album 3?

Nine 11-13-2006 12:54 AM

that's like reading someone's diary.. tsk tsk ;)

cille 11-13-2006 07:10 AM

whose lyrics, what where why?

liswyn 11-13-2006 10:21 AM

Ah, now I realise... those lyrics. I was wondering what was written but... I guess I'm not that obsessive enough to decipher them. :D Interesting, though.

That's why I said "I'm defining irony". The voice-over during that section is all about how Damo likes to keep the lyrics as private as possible.

blackrose88 11-13-2006 02:36 PM

what song is this?

Spamlet 11-13-2006 02:55 PM

Sadly, we don't know yet! It was just the beginnings of some lyrics on the page that he and Lisa were trying to work out the rhythm of together. Let's hope it was eventually finished. I adore Damo's angrier stuff.

cille 11-13-2006 03:33 PM

what page?

Nine 11-13-2006 04:10 PM

Thanks for explaining - Wooh, hadn't even been watching the EPK before cause I'd been waiting for the album before I'd listen to any album songs, nice stuff. Now I wish they'd make a longer docu out of this.

Nine 11-13-2006 07:44 PM

yeah i really enjoyed it - it was a nice little insight into how things work.
