open up the door
apri la porta
lay the orange juice on the floor
metti il succo d'arancia sul pavimento
we're having a picnic on the ugly part of town
stiamo facendo un picnic nella parte brutta della città
the sleeping bags on fire
i sacchi a pelo in fiamme
and its getting down to the wire
e si sta arrivando al limite
so grab a sofa spot and settle down awhile
quindi prendi un posto sul divano e sistemati un po'
cause its getting hard to think
perché sta diventando difficile pensare
and my clothes are starting to shrink
e i miei vestiti cominciano a restringersi
and the moon is sagging down like a metal ball
e la luna si sta abbassando come una palla di metallo
and the world is a holiday
e il mondo è una vacanza
smoking in an old ashtray
fumare in un vecchio posacenere
they just blow it out their nose and say ok
si soffiano semplicemente il naso e dicono ok
so lets try to make this last
quindi proviamo a farlo durare
the past is still the past
il passato è ancora passato
and tomorrow is just another crazy scam
e domani è solo un'altra folle truffa
(repeat first verse)
(ripetere la prima strofa)

Coro:
Lyrics:
Testi:
Well there aint nobody left to impress
Beh, non è rimasto nessuno da impressionare
and everyone's kissing their own hands
e tutti si baciano le mani
its 666 on the kichen floor
è 666 sul pavimento della cucina
aint no fire in the pan
non c'è fuoco nella padella
I get lonesome (4x)
Mi sento solo (4x)
(repeat intro)
(ripetere l'introduzione)
so glad to be a slab
così felice di essere una lastra
stiff as a stick on a board
rigido come un bastone su una tavola
i get thoughts and dirty socks
mi vengono pensieri e calzini sporchi
piled in the corner
ammucchiato nell'angolo
i get lonesome (4x)
mi sento solo (4x)
Getting fat on your own fears
Ingrassare con le proprie paure
bring that beer over here
porta qui quella birra
i stomp on the floor
calpesto il pavimento
just to make a sound
solo per fare un suono
i get lonesome (4x)
mi sento solo (4x)
ooooooh
ooooooh
4. Burnt Orange Peel
4. Buccia d'arancia bruciata
I'm on the run with things to be (we're on the road/we're on the run)
Sono in fuga con le cose da fare (siamo in viaggio/siamo in fuga)
I've got a garden hose and a color tv
Ho un tubo da giardino e una tv a colori
I've got time on my hands
Ho tempo a disposizione
I've got time on my hands
Ho tempo a disposizione
Nobody cares what I do
A nessuno importa cosa faccio
I'm on the run with things to do (we're on the road/long ago)
Sono di corsa con cose da fare (siamo in viaggio/molto tempo fa)
I've got a burnt orange peel and a potato stew
Ho una buccia d'arancia bruciata e uno stufato di patate
I've got work to get done
Ho del lavoro da portare a termine
I've got work to get done
Ho del lavoro da portare a termine
Nobody knows where to run
Nessuno sa dove scappare
(up 1/2 step)
(fino a 1/2 gradino)
I've got a quart of milk and some sound advice
Ho un litro di latte e qualche buon consiglio
I've got
Ho
But they smell so nice
Ma hanno un odore così gradevole
Don't give me the flu
Non darmi l'influenza
Nobody knows I'm with you
Nessuno sa che sono con te
(up 1/2 step)
(fino a 1/2 gradino)
Back and forth I dodge a fly
Avanti e indietro schivo una mosca
Like a feather in the sky
Come una piuma nel cielo
Write me out a check
Scrivimi un assegno
Give me all your cash
Dammi tutti i tuoi soldi
Nobody knows, so let's just go home
Nessuno lo sa, quindi andiamo a casa
5. CYANIDE BREATH MINT
5. MENTA ALITO DI CIANURO
Tune guitar down one full step
Accorda la chitarra di un tono completo
Definitely, this is the wrong place to be
Decisamente, questo è il posto sbagliato dove stare
there's blood on the futon,
c'è sangue sul futon,
there's a kid drinkin' fire.
c'è un ragazzino che beve fuoco.
Goin' down to the sea,
Scendendo al mare,
they got people to meet,
hanno fatto incontrare le persone,
shakin' hands with themselves,
stringendo la mano a se stessi,
lookin' out for themselves.
badando a se stessi.
When they ask you for credit,
Quando ti chiedono credito,
give them a branch.
dai loro un ramo.
When they want you to get it,
Quando vogliono che tu lo ottenga,
chew on the grass.
masticare l'erba.
I know, I know
Lo so, lo so
'cause they told me to tell you
perché mi hanno detto di dirtelo
there's nothing to tell you,
non c'è niente da dirti,
there's nothing to sell you.
non c'è niente da venderti.
In the afternoon, riding the scapegoat,
Nel pomeriggio, cavalcando il capro espiatorio,
burning equipment, decomposing.
attrezzature in fiamme, in decomposizione.
Cool off your jets,
Rinfrescati i tuoi jet,
take off your sweats,
togliti i sudori,
I got a funny feeling
Ho una strana sensazione
they got plastic in the afterlife.
hanno preso la plastica nell'aldilà.
When they want you to cry,
Quando vogliono che tu piangi,
leap into the sky.
saltare nel cielo.
When they suck your mind,
Quando ti risucchiano la mente,
like a pigeon you fly.
come un piccione voli.
I know, I know,
Lo so, lo so,
it's the positive people
sono le persone positive
running from their time
looking for some feeling.
6. SEE WATER
tune guitar down 1/2 step
intro:
verse:
chorus:
Close your eyes and see water
sliding up the back of your head
folding into your clothing
covering everything you said
Climb up into
Who's going to miss you
Dry up on the shoreline
drinking everything you see
offering things to the ladies
bowing down in the mossen trees
Climb up into
Nobody's going to miss you
play open low E string at end
7. ZIPLOCK BAG
guitar 2 plays above nut during intro
guitar 1
guitar2
Open up
bare me my love
ain't no cat
laying flat on the road
It's so loud
seems I've been here
ziplock bag
oh my god
8. HOLLOW LOG
tune down 1 1/2 steps
INTRO:
VERSE:
Lyrics:
go where you want to
do the things you feel
walk around with a broken leg
and a hundred dollar bill
get yourself a pistol
get yourself a dog
stay up all night gettin' drunk
sleepin' on a hollow log
walk till your restless
sleep till your tired
wake up without thinking
your the one that I desire
9. FORCEFIELD
tune down 1/2 step
guitar 1
guitar 2
stand outside with a suitcase
(there's a forcefield round my neck)
walk around all the while
(and it stands just where I sat)
look at the people driving backwards
(and the stance I took on that)
no particular style
(leaves that forcefield round my back)
don't let it get near you
don't let it get too close
don't let it turn you into
(and the stance I took on that)
the things you hate the most
(leaves a forcefield round my neck)
roll out your silver-dollar coffins
pull out your buckskin gloves
tell them anything you want to
the sound comes from above
10. FOURTEEN RIVERS FOURTEEN FLOODS
Beck plays variations on this throughout, but
this touches on each significant riff involved
C# ||--0--/4--5--7~------------/7p0--4~----------
G# ||--------------------0-----/7----------------
C# ||-----------------x--0------------------x--0-

C# ||-----------------------0--------------0-----
Fourteen rivers
fourteen floods
send your body to the heavens above.
Don't get drunk
don't get dry
just bring your money next Saturday night.
Forty miles on a cattle trail
with a happy mule
and nothing on my mind
all my life I've been talking fast
taking all the things
that I should have let pass.
Throw my hat on a coffee mill
put another brick
in the fire place.
Well I don't know about you or me
but some got loose
back on down.
11. ASSHOLE
tune guitar down 1 1/2 steps
Your brains went black when she took back her love
and put it out into the sun
The birds did fly when the heavens all went dry
And the cigarettes are smokin by themselves
She'll do anything
She'll do anything
She'll do anything to make you feel like an asshole
Call her name, she looks the same as you
question mark stretched across the skin
She dangles carrots, makes you feel embarrassed
to be the fool you know you are
(Chorus)
13. I`VE SEEN THE LAND BEYOND
tune down 1/2 step
From these shores where we belong
I have seen the land beyond
Where the lord is strange and strong
I have seen the land beyond
There's no telling who'll be dead
When the pale horse is turning red
And their tongues will burn in vain
And everything will feel the same
There's no patience there's no peace
I have seen the land beyond
Where the gravestones never cease
I have seen the land beyond
Through the troubles of the years
A heavenly apparition appears
And we're haunted by our own minds
And the spirit calls in the skies
From these shores where we belong
I have seen the land beyond
I'll be there and I'll be gone
I have seen the land beyond
13. OUTCOME
Intro + verse:
Seventeen years in the city
static clinging to the ceiling
never did I think it would come to this
how come it's different than I expected
never did I think it would come to this
how come it's different than I expected
Riot cops cheerleaders
eyebrows painted on their heads
mouthful of rotting cavities
drinking coca cola in the street
(chorus)
Shot in the leg
shot in the leg
my name is a bone
nobody home
my hand is a wire
the sky is on fire
the drums aren't beating
pistols in jeans
laugh at the dead
laugh at the dead
love if you're dead
dead as a fly
14. GIRLS DREAMS
tune guitar down 1 1/2 steps
You're just the girl of my dreams
But it seems my dreams never come true
(repeat)
I first met you down on Lover's Lane
The birds were insane flapping all about
Softly you would sing swinging in your swing
It wasn't night it wasn't day
(repeat chorus 2x)
(instrumental verse 2x)
(repeat chorus 1x)
15. PAINTED EYELIDS
guitar tuned down 1/2 step
I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids
The world is your oyster and the trash bags are your kids
The ceiling is invisible there's a bird sinkin thru the sky
And every hour that passes is teachin me how to cry
Cuz it's lonely here in the ugly part of town
The buildings are all vacant and the telephones are down
There's a police siren singing like a tiger with no skin
The sewer drain is glowing and I don't know what state I'm in
And the river is on fire there's chemicals and debris
And all the roads are blocked off they're just too hard to see
So cancel my appointments and set up a whole new show
Cuz I'm in need of a good hot meal and a life to call my own
(Harmonica solo over A-E-F#-E7)
So get me a plate of money get me a blanket and a chair
The limitations are limitless they're floating thru the air
Cuz it's real and it's true the things I see in you
And there's nothin I wouldn't talk about with the clearest dream
that ever drifted by
16. ATMOSPHERIC CONDIDTIONS
guitar tuned down 1/2 step
guitar 2 follows chords on slide:
-/10----------10-/12----------12--/15--------15--etc.
There's nobody there's no mountain there's no tunnel
you can't get from there to here
you can't get from here to there
(repeat)
There hasn't been a change in the atmosphere
(nothing twisted round, burning down, come around)
There hasn't been a change for over a year
(sliding through the water through hiding you)
There hasn't been a change in the atmosphere
(shut it up, roll it up, find a new)
