![]() White Pepper (2000) [ larger cover art ] |
I recall a time when we were lovers
Before you, I hadn't any other
when the bad times came along
I turned and you had gone
From the start, I loved you, I was wrong
Falling out, it's the end.
May as well have never been
The cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again,
Don't consider me your friend
Falling out, look away, it's the end
Always thought of you as my big brother
Never knew we couldn't trust eachother
Two faces I could see
As you shook my money tree
There's no more you and me
Let it be
Falling out, It's the end
And I lose another friend
The cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again
Don't consider me your friend
Falling out, look away, it's the end.
Falling out, It's the end
may as well have never been
the cards are up, the chips are all cashed in
You won't see me again
don't consider me your friend
Falling out, look away, it's the end
Falling out, look away, it's the end.

| honu | Posted: May 12, 2009 - 22:56 WEEN!! I wonder if these guys will ever get recognized for their clever lyrics and compositions. Even though alot of their music has easily recognized influences, they do an incredible job of making it their own. And then again, some of their stuff is just bizarre. They have a huge catalog of songs and so much of it is great. Where's the props?? |

i second that! Like from this cd: Exactly Where I'm At Even If You Don't Bananas and Blow Stay Forever Ice Castles The Grobe Are all RP'able. Stroker Ace - might be... probably too fast of a rocker though. i just mention it cuz its one of my favorite ween songs... especially when they do it live! And Gener pulls out the Bullhorn... |

You still don't. Ween is the most chameleonic 6 or 7 bands I've ever heard. :) Some further examples would be "Dr. Rock," "Banannas and Blow," "Ice castles," and "God In my Bed." -PL- |
| ChardRemains (Pepperland) | Posted: Oct 01, 2004 - 08:40 Hmm. This is Ween? I can see how someone might think it sounds like Sir Paul. Plus it's got that trite skiffle sound to it. |
| Bruceg (Raleigh/Durham NC) | Posted: Sep 16, 2004 - 14:04 actually thought it was Paul McCartney singing this song at first |

| a8o (Sydney, Australia) | Posted: Apr 06, 2004 - 10:35 I think they got typecast a little with the success of "Waving My Dick in the Wind" and before that :"Pushing Little Daisies". Those songs would be the most famous (in the broader sense) Ween songs got a fair bit of play on radio when they were released and so nowdays when the name Ween is thrown about, those songs come to mind. And so it makes it difficult when presented with a song as diverse as this to comprehend - this is the same band. |
| namesbenny | Posted: Feb 07, 2004 - 19:43 el_stoo wrote: this is indeed a great song, as is most Ween
what is amusing is how convincing they are, any genre they pick up (of which there are dozens), they seem to fit right in, the whole time making fun of whatever they sound like. It's not imitation, it's mocking. But a friendly, respectful mocking. If you can understand that. PLAY MORE BIZARRE WEEN SONGS!!! Couldn't agree more. This reminds me of my dear dead friend, Eric, who forced ween upon me. A lot of people seem to think of them as a "novelty act", but there's much more. Please play "the Argus" off the new album. |
