thanks for the lyrics guys. How are you so sure the title is Charlie Brown. It seems to me Chris only said Charlie Brown because it is a famous cartoon. The song is called Cartoon Heart.

 

It isn't called Cartoon Heart because Debs Wild said on this forum that it isn't called that. :) So it's called Charlie Brown. I like the title. I love the song.

The title went across the screen too. (though that's no guarantee every time)

"Lost Boys" - is he referring to PETER PAN?

 

I think he may be. Especially taking into consideration that one of the lines in Major Minus "I hear those crocodiles ticking 'round the world" which references Captain Hook and his croc stalker (lol).

 

I have no idea WHY the guys are referencing Peter Pan, though O_o

I though exactly the same when I listened to Major Minus.

Maybe because they have a cartoon heart? :p

EDIT:

 

 

I stole a key

Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet

I took a car downtown and took what they offered me

To set me free

I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene

I saw the lights go down and they're standing in front of me

 

Oooh

 

My scarecrow dreams

When they smashed my heart into smithereens

I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete

Be a cartoon heart

Light a fire from a spark

Light a fire, flame in my heart

We'll run wild

We'll be glowing in the dark

Glowing in the dark

 

Oooh ooh ooh

Ah ah aahhh

 

All the boys, all the girls

All the madness/families in the world

All the boys, all the girls

All the madness that occurs(?)

 

All the highs, all the lows

As the room is spinning, oh

We'll run wild

We'll start glowing in the dark

 

So we saw an innocent liar(?)

We'll be glowing in the dark

I'm pretty confident this is 100% correct, what do you think? ;)

Oooh

 

My scarecrow dreams

I'll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete

Be the cartoon heart

Light a fire, oh light a spark

Light a fire, a flame in my heart

We'll run wild

We'll be glowing in the dark

Glowing in the dark

 

Oooh ooh ooh

Ah ah aahhh

 

All the boys, all the girls

All that matters in the world

All the boys, all the girls

All the madness that occurs

 

All the highs, all the lows

As the room is spinning, oh

We'll run wild

We'll start glowing in the dark

 

So we saw the reason why,

We'll be glowing in the dark

A couple things about the lyrics. First, for the first line, I hear "I stole the key." I think this makes more sense than "a," "the" implying that the narrator of the song (most likely a teenager) stole the keys to a specific car, probably his parents,' as opposed to some random key. Second, I am quite sure that instead of "when they smashed my heart into smithereens," I hear "when they smash my heart." This also makes more sense, because the future tense matches up with "I will be a bright red rose" in the next line. Next, I'm fairly sure that it's not "light a fire, light a spark. I hear something else ("find a spark?"), although I'm not sure what it is. Make your own deudctions here. Finally, I'm not totally sold on the "spinning room" and "innocent liar" lines, I feel they could be something else as well. Anyway, here's the lyrics as best as I can figure.

I took the car downtown and took what they offered me

To set me free

I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene

I saw the lights go down and they’re standing in front of me

 

My scarecrow dreams

When they smash my heart into smithereens

I’ll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete

Be a cartoon heart

Light a fire _____ spark

Light a fire, a flame in my heart

We’ll run wild

We’ll be glowing in the dark

 

All the boys, all the girls

All that matters in the world

All the boys, all the girls

All the madness that occurs

 

All the highs, all the lows

As the room is spinning, oh (?)

We’ll run wild

We’ll start glowing in the dark

 

So we saw an innocent liar (?)

We’ll be glowing in the dark

Charlie Brown

 

I stole a key

And took the car downtown where the lost boys meet

I took a car downtown and took what they offered me

To set me free

I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene

I saw the lights go down and (I don't hear "they're)standing in front of me

 

My scarecrow dreams

When they smash my heart into smithereens

I’ll be a bright red rose combusting the concrete

Be a cartoon heart

Light a fire from a spark

Light a fire, a flame in my heart

We’ll run wild

We’ll be glowing in the dark

 

All the boys, all the girls

All that matters in the world

All the boys, all the girls

All the madness that occurs

 

All the highs, all the lows

As the room is spinning, oh (?)

We’ll run wild

We’ll start glowing in the dark

 

So we saw an innocent liar (?)

We’ll be glowing in the dark

 

I underlined the slight changes I hear. Still not sold on the 'spinning' & 'innocent liar' lines. I don't think they are 100% but I can't make out exactly what he's saying. This darn song has been replaying in my head all day.
