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 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!
This song is sooooo catchy!lol! I sing it when i am in the shower,car,bus,and even the bog!lol! Can't believe me being an old punk rocker/Clash maniac i have just said that! I need a Guiness quick!
Could you please write Jules's lyrics....I mean...I love them....and I'd love to learn them....I couldn't understand everything of them...that's why I'm asking you to do this....thanks a lot!
You were bloody amazing at Leeds, definatly the best band on! I really loved the improvised ending on That's not my name, what a way to go out! Can't wait for you guys at Norwich :)
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 :)))
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!!
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.
hey i would love if anyone can help me with the back vocals of Jules in this song cos´ I can barely understand them please!!!! my English is sooo bad :(
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.
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!!!!!
