Didn't you ever want to know....
Today's weird anecdote: The words (all of them!) to One Week by Bare Naked Ladies! The words in the CD jacket are WRONG! Not all wrong, but a little wrong--enough to throw the average curious listener. So here they are, so you may enjoy your music with more appreciation.
It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your head to the side and said, "I'm angry."
Five days since you laughed at me, saying "get that together, come back and see me."
Three days since the living room--I realized it was all my fault, but couldn't tell you.
Yesterday, you'd forgiven me, but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry.
Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
Does it make you stop, think?
You'll think you're looking at Aqua Man
I summon fish to the dish although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi 'cause it's never touched a frying pan.
Hot like Wasabi when I bust rhymes
Big like Leeann Rimes
Because I'm all about value.
Burt Kaemfer's got the mad hits,
You try to match wits,
You try to hold me but I bust through.
Gonna make a break and take a fake,
I like a stakin', achin' shake, I like vanilla--it's the finest of the flavors.
Gotta see the show 'cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
'Cause it's so dangerous you'll have to sign a waiver.
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad?
Trying hard not to smile, though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? Well, you soon will.
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve--
I have a history of taking off my shirt.
It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air and said, "You're crazy!"
Five days since you tackled me--I've still got the rugburns on both my knees.
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault--not a moment too soon
Yesterday, you'd forgiven me, and now I'll sit back and wait till you say you're sorry.
Chickety China, the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops ticking
Watching X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy
Like Kurasawa, I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films--but if I did they'd have a samurai
Gonna get a set of better clubs, find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon, 'cause that cartoon
Has got the boom anime babes that make me think the wrong thing.
How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad?
Trying hard not to smile, though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? You soon will.
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve--
I have a history of losing my shirt.
It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your arms to your sides and said, "I'm sorry."
Five days since I laughed at you, and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do."
Three days since the living room--
We realize we're both to blame, but what could we do?
Yesterday, you just smiled at me, 'cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry.
On to more weird, fun stuff!
