Okay, this doesn't read like Shakespeare... but I love the way it crawls into my ear:
"I just walked into it, a sucker for it, I'm a sucker, thought I was so cooooool" |

'oh no, not you again - i hear the inner shout,

Wow...I was just going to post that. GREAT line for a blues song, especially in an album that's NOT lyrically brilliant as a whole. Always makes me think of that painting of Saturn devouring his young.
Although in the lyric sheet it says "Goyas AND paranoias" which is not nearly as good. I prefer to think that's a mistake.
Why the hell do they have a lyric sheet for this album? They definitely should have left it up to our imaginations like they did back when Mick was a really GOOD lyricist. |

yeah - no shit - that was always part of the fun ...
now its all too apparent that the lyrics suck EXCEPT on a few fleeting flashes of brilliance....
and it IS goya's paranois - at least it is for me because THAT'S a great lines and the delivery - pure, vintage jagger. |

I think some of the lyrics in the album notes are wrong. I believe in "Oh no not you again" Mick says "Mashing up my life" in the second chorus instead of "Messing up my life!!!"  |

I thought that line was
"Your prison stare," which makes a great image as well as gives insight into the character. |

You can gain a fortune in an instant
or you can lose your soul |

i know - these were the first lyrics we saw and i cursed that one in particular........but holy shit - it actually works; he spits it out so crudely that its funny and almost comical...like all these pleasantries are going on around him - 'everybody's trying to show thier wit' - and he's just looking at her tits.......its fucking funny.
this is why you can't alway take the lyrics on thier own...its the delivery that makes it kick - although there's plenty of shitty, stupid lyrics the vocals CAN'T redeem. |
