Dandy Warhols 13 Tales Of Urban Bohemia Lyrics
1.big indian

Well my friends do me so right.
I'm lucky this far, maybe it's kharma.
I get over them but, only at times.
And I thank my lucky stars, I wish I may, I wish that I might,
just keep an open mind, all of the time.

My old man told me one time.
You never get wise, you only get older.
And most things, you never know why, but that's fine.
When the future is frightening,
and I seem to be fighting it well soon as it's brightening then
I.
I feel fine, and then I, I feel fine.

Well my friends do me so right.
I'm lucky this far, maybe it's kharma.
I get over them, but only at times.
Well the future is frightening, and I seem to be fighting it,
well, but soon as it's brightening.
Well the future is frightening the future is frightening,
but I I feel fine, oh yes I, I feel fine. Yeah.


2.boys better

Boys had better beware
You can seem to color your hair
But on a wig you already spent
All the dough to cover your rent
And it's a cool pad if you care
For all the other boys caught in your bleach job hair
And girls had better beware
Boys, you better, you better
Boys had better beware
It could seem a wasted affair
And like a bitch you already spent
All the dough you promised your friends
And it's a cool pad if you care
For all the other boys caught in your bleach job hair
And girls had better beware
boys, you better, you better
Boys
Boys said shave my head
But god says amen
Oh man it's not fair
To all the other boys caught in your bleach job hair
And girls better beware
Boys you better, you better


3.cool scene

Well I'm just not making a scene, and I really don't feel like I
need.
I really don't mean that it's cool, didn't really wanna be in
high school.
I'm dealing with the things that I've been, if it wasn't so
appropriate then.
I really don't care what I sing, and I really doubt you know
what I mean.

And I really don't mean that it's cool, didn't really wanna be
in high school.
All the talking fools, what it means, last I've seen.
Baby it's all me, I'm just not making a scene,
and I really felt that you're a cool being.
I really don't know what I mean, and it really isn't worth the
trying.
I'm feeling pretty chill with nothing,
like I'm livin' in a world that follows you.
And I really think you know your friends man,
like you're livin' in a social hydrant.

I really don't mean that it's cool, didn't really wanna be in
high school.
All the talking fools, what it means, the last I seen.
Baby It's all me. Didn't really wanna be in high school.
All the talking fools, what it means, last I seen, Baby it's all
me.

6.godless

Hey I said you're godless and, it seems like you're a souless
friend.
As thoughtless as you were back then, I swear that you are
godless.
Hey I guess you're lonely when, I gave you all it took so then,
stranger then it's ever been.
I guess, It's what you wanted.
They conceived, how lonely I would be.

7.green

You open the door
I let myself in between
You and me
I only believe what I want to believe
I guess it's because I'm greener than green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm greener than green
I came up to the floor
You were dressed just a little obscene
And you shut me down
Quite sexually like a preadolescent because I'm greener than
green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm greener than green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm green
Only because I'm greener than green


8.horse pills

So your ex got a mansion where you kick it on the hill,
your boy comes to see you, he's your Hollywood thrill.
He's a Spanish fly, that bucks like a stallion.
In the suits that you got him, he looks more Italian.
You worry bout your tan when the weather's gettin' clammy,
summer in the city and winters in Miami.
You get so high on the high life pills,
cruisin' and boozin' and rockin' on the horse size pills.
You could even take more thrills- you could even take more
spills,
pills, thrills, chills and ills man, kills.
And rockin' on the horse size.
Butt's gettin' bigger, do you think he'll notice maybe?
That's ok, don't worry bout it baby!
Cause everybody knows he pumps you for your money, that's
alright,
don't worry bout it honey!
In your itsy bitsy teenie weenie riding up your butt bikini.
Keepin' on the heels cause you're saggin'
just a teenie bit more than the girls he pretends he doesn't
thrill.
Rubbin' on the lotion, and rockin' on the horse size pills.
You could even take more thrills,
you could even take more spills, pills, thrills, chills, and
ills man, kills.
And rockin' on the horse size.
Sometimes you feel like Moses, that's when you're toasted.
Yeah, kick it.
Yo bitch.
That's right, yeah.
Rockin' on the horse size...


9.minnesoter

Yeah, well I could rock her
like a doctor
if i found a way to get her off first
I could own her, the crazy loner
If I found my way to Minnesoter
Oh yeah, in a slumber, I'm sawing lumber
I saw my baby dance a Latin number
With her shirt off, oh man her skin's soft
But in her mood she'd rather if I jerked off
If I found my way to Minnesota, Minnesota yeah
Yeah well I could rock her, like a doctor
If I found a way to get her off first
Well I could own her, the crazy loner
If I found my way to Minnesoter
Yeah, if I found my way to Minnesoter
Yeah, if I found my way to Minnesota, Minnesota yeah


10.mohammed

Again and again.
I get up and say, I only want to get a ride.
I only want to do the right thing, but all these demons pass
beside.
I won't be today, I'm alone again.
No one can make that alive, no one can say they're better not
when,
all this freedom you get is a lie.
Again and again.


11.nietzsche

I want a god who stays dead, not plays dead.
I, even I, can play dead.
I want a god who stays dead, not plays dead.
I, even I, can play dead.
I want a god who stays dead, not plays dead.
I, even I, can play dead


12.Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth

I never thought you'd be a junkie because heroin is so passe.
But today, If you think that
I don't know about depression and emotional pain,
You're insane.
And you're a fool who hasn't paid attention to a word that I
say.
In a way,
I can't help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were
insane.
With your pain.
But I never thought you'd be a junkie because heroin is so
passe.
Heroin is so passe.
Heroin is so passe.
So passe. Nowaday,
You never thought you'd get addicted, Just be cooler in an
obvious way.
I could say,
Shouldn't you have got a couple piercings and
decided maybe that you were gay.
In a way,
I can't help but feel responsible, I always knew that you were
insane,
With your pain .
But I never thought you'd be a junkie because heroin is so
pass.
Heroin is so passe.
Heroin is so passe. Ahh, ahh, ahh. Heroin is so passe.
Heroin is so pass. Heroin is so passe. Ahh, ahh, hey, hey.


13.not your bottle

That's not your bottle
Nor what's inside
I guess they brought it
Just for them
How'd you get in?
That's fucking right
None of my friends would bother
To even bother
Benjamin's marijuana
Michael brought a keg
The skaters are high on mushrooms
Passing out hits of LSD
Phillip wants to be a rock star
But he's a bit uptight
So he brings his favorite Bettys
With a bottle full of whiskey
And he sits on the couch all night


14.nothing to do

i like to hold on my baby,
she likes to hold on me too.
likes something for nothing,
that she can hold on to.
where we been lately,
second avenue.
to call on trent mackerel,
or we can find someone new.

really like it better,
like it better than you.
and if you got a problem,
well we had nothing to do.
here we go baby,
with the cats from swoon.
and if we got a quarter,
we call sugarboom,
chicka chick boom.


15.orange

If I look down this road
It's not so old, I know
Ain't it white like snow
But some how painted gold
And when I'm lost and torn
A soldier in orange, I
Like a roll in the snow
On a doctors show
If I look down this road
It's not so old, I know
But ain't it white like snow
But some how painted gold
But when I'm lost and torn
A soldier in orange, I
like a roll in the snow
On a doctor's show
And when I'm lost and torn
I'm soldier in orange, I know
Like a roll in the snow
A doctors show, I


16.shakin'

Oh you got me shakin, oh you got me high.
I didn't know till now, I'm not that good,
But. You were drinking, and thinking all night.
You were hot so you thought, you didn't want to try.

You could see no reason to be any nicer but
I still can't seem to help but want you back back back back

But I can't seem to help but want you back back back back back.

Where I dump out all the crap so I can just feel solid again.
No more sittin' around thinkin' about your hair,

She comes over and hangs around for days in my bed.
You can't seriously believe I'm thinking about you man.
Cause I must have a door in the back of my, back of my head.

Well it's a brand new day and I'm walking around old town.
