Information



Lyrics:

Four letter word just to get me along
It's a difficulty and I'm biting on my tongue
I Keep stalling, keeping it together
People around I gotto find something to say
Holding back everyday the same
Don't wanna be a loner
Listen to me
I never say anything at all
So with nothing to consider they forget my name

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name...
They call me quiet
But I'm a riot
Mary-Jo-Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name...

I miss the catch when they throw me the ball
I'm the last drip standing up against the wall
Keep falling, these heels that keep me boring
Getting clamped up and sitting on the fence
So alone all the time and I lock myself away
Listen to me
Thought I'm dressed up out ‘n all
With everything considered they forget my name

They call me hell
They call me Stacey
They call me her
They call me Jane
That's not my name...
They call me quiet
But I'm a riot
Mary-Jo-Lisa
Always the same
That's not my name...

Are you calling me darling
Are you calling me bird...

I love this song so much I upoloaded it into my sims game. I then made Katie and Jules and they danced aroun to it! :P
UltimateTingTing posted 11 months ago


I LOVE this song but....
When Katie sings "They call me quiet"
It sounds like she's saying
"They call me quite girl"
And that's what I sing everytime I hear this song! LOL, I listen to this at least once a day! x

Well I'm dutch so not native english speaking but here's my 2 cents
I think he's singing :

This song was in my head
Now it's in my mind
Call it reach it get some words and get some timing
Though I realise I cannot emphasise
I'll stick around but just a promise nothing binding
However can't you see that you're so desperately
A standing joker like a vocal one-liner
Instead of sing-a-long this song is monotone
Gotta get some soul I gotta get some feeling

:)

LOL, i really can't understand it... if you read and listen at the same time, each version seems correct... anyway, i tried to do mine.... and i made some changes with what i read here... XD it became almost like the three versions here mixed toghether in some lines... anyway...

this song was my head and now its in my mind
call the preacher, get some words and get some time and...
...You know, i realized
I cannot emphasize
Sitting around with just a promise, nothing binding...
Whatever, can't you see? Living so desperatly.
standing and choking like a vocal one-liner
instead of sing-along, this song is monotone
I gotta grasp some soul,i gotta get some feeling

yeah... there are lines that once were "standing so alone - the song is my tongue" or "standing and chocking on the vocal, on the line and...".... one kiss for the one who figures wich lines im talking about ;)

anyway... i believe jules must be sitting in front of the computer, laughing at us while reading thi

They play this on the radio in the States ALL THE TIME.

Everytime I hear the whirly sound at the beginning, I freak out. My mum's getting tired of me turning the radio up as loud as it goes when it comes on. :D

am a teen,but i ain't mean.
I wear a hoodie,but i'm so goody!
I buy my mags,but not the fags.
I go to school,but i'm no fool!
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I have a lover,unlike any other.
He makes me smile in a world thats vile.
My love for him shall never deminish.
We shall be one until we're finished.
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I see a world thats full of war
Can someone tell me what they fighting for?
Children in Africa with looks of despair, as their leaders buy guns how can this be fair?
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I'm lost in the supermarket,i dunno what to buy!
I stand at the till,with a tear in my eye!
I look around and what do i see?
A world full of people spending on misery.
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!
I love the Ting Tings,they make me sing sing!

what is the drummer guy saying in the background
crazyboutcuddles77 posted 1 year ago


They call me bounder,
I'll say it louder:
I'm the last mouner,
It's such a pain,
That's not my name!
That's not my name!
That's not my name!

They call me strange one,
There must be change done,
I'm trying to divert
others to stay!
That's not my name!
That's not my name!
That's not my name!

...Well, I know I can't compose but anyway - I can try. :-)
Original is always better, this one ESPECIALLY.
One of the best songs of its genre!

This song is stirling. But does anybody know the lyrics jules sings in the back?
brooksy_83 posted 1 year ago


This still remains my favorite song. It sounds simple but it is actually very clever in the way it is multi tracked and overdubbed. I am still convinced that I am the oldest member of this site...but what the hell, I love the music :)))
electric warrior posted 2 years ago

This Song is Brilliant, Give me one good Reason why you can't like it, my friend dosen't and I may have to kill him because hes abusing the song, its that good!!
hazman posted 2 years ago


I believe that Jules is singing:

Now it's in my head
now it's in my head
call the preacher get some poison get some time and
though I realise
cannot emphasise
(there's) nothing wrong with just a promise nothing binding
whatever can't you see?
living so desperately
standing joking like the loacl one-liner
Instead I sit alone
this song is monotone
I gotta get some soul I gotta get some feeling



I believe those are the correct lyrics, I know some people have different variations.


I FOOKING LOVED this song since the start of 2008 when I first started loving the TT. Still do.

Awesome.

Claire1210 posted 2 years ago


I love this song so much! And after listening closer to what he sings, there was only two words that needed to be added. 'Baby' and 'That'. Other than that it sounds accurate. =]

This song was in my head, now it's in my mind, call it reach it get some words and get some timing.
And though I realize, I cannot emphasize, I'll stick around but just don't promise, nothing binding.
And baby can't you see, that you're so desperately, a standing joker like a vocal one-liner.
Instead of sing-a-long, this song is monotone, I've gotta get some soul I gotta get some feeling.

Couldn't get song out of head so wrote a parody to go with it lol

lucidlupin posted 2 years ago


This is the version I came up with through different sources:

"...it's in my head and now it's in my mind...

call it, reach it, get some words and get some timing

though I realize, I cannot emphasize

...I sit around with just a promise, nothing binding

...oh and can't you see....i feel (fell?) so desperately

...standing joker like a looker and no one buying it

...instead I sing along, this song is monotone

I gotta get some soul, I gotta get some feeling.."
Suzy TM posted 2 years ago


Don't think these are absolutely accurate or even complete but they're better than what else I've found online lol. This tune rocks, The Ting Tings rock. Get on tour!!!!!

This song was in my head, now it's in my mind, call it reach it get some words and get some timing.
And though I realise, I cannot emphasize, I'll stick around but just don't promise, nothing binding.

Hope someone with a better ear than me can fill in the gaps.
