ah, i left the boards for 5 days and when i got back i had to go to page 2 to find this thread :/

 

woo

the end has no end on letterman was rad

finally got the video

 

Ah, that performance was just brilliant.

I'm starting to think that the end has no end sounds better live.

 

And I'm beginning to think the live on Conan O'Brien version of The Modern Age sounds better then the album.

Hmmm... That's odd.. This is the version of Barely Legal I always listen to. Look at the lyrics.. I guess it's the EP version.

 

I didn't take no shortcuts

I spent the money that I saved up

Oh, Momma running out of luck

Like my sister, don't give a fuck

 

Oh his strange manners, I love 'em so

"I wish you'd wear your new trench coat"

I don't show up on weekdays

That's something that you learned yesterday

 

I just want to misbehave

I just want to be your slave

You ain't got nothing I want, but...

I want it all

I just can't figure out...

Nothin'

 

I wanna steal your innocence

To me my life, it don't make sense

I took five dollars, won't get me far

My last resort is to steal your car

"Drive you to work; you'll be on time

These little problems they're not yours and mine,"

"Come on and listen to what I say

I've got some secrets that'll make you stay"

 

I just want to turn you down

I just want to turn you around

Oh, you ain't got nothing I want, but...

I want it all

I just can't figure out...

Nothin'

 

And all he said is, "I'm a freak"

He ordered them to make mistakes

And all together it went well

We made pretend we were best friends

Today the day that I was born

He won't leave me alone he keeps asking for more

Together again, like the beginning

But for the record it's between you and me

 

I wanna steal your innocence

To me my life, it don't make sense

Oh, his strange manners I love 'em so

"Why won't he wear his new trenchcoat?"

I didn't take no shortcuts

I spent the money that I saved up

Oh, Momma running out of luck

Like my sister don't give a fuck

 

I just want to turn you down

And maybe later I'll turn you around

You ain't never had nothing I want, but...

I want it all

I just can't figure out...

Nothing

 

And all he said is, "I'm a freak"

He ordered them to make mistakes

And all together it went well

We made pretend we were best friends

Today the day that I was born

He won't leave me alone he just asks for more

Together again, like the beginning

I said it's between you and I

Man, I haven't been on here in almost two months (I think). Nice new avatar, Eric. I really need to change mine. I'm hoping my fanclub DVD will come tomorrow. It better - other people have already gotten theirs :angry: .

So you got an autographed poster, Eric? I only got an autographed 8x10. Is the poster the one of them backlit on top of a building?

I don't have a dvd burner, but a friend of mine might. I'll see what I can do :D But I still haven't gotten mine. The mail came already today and it wasn't there. :angry: I don't think I can wait any longer. :cry:

Thanks, Maya. How are you?

Yeah, the fanclub is pretty pricey for people outside the US. Especially because the best thing about it is the secret shows and those are mostly in the States. In a fan club email from Matt he said that the DVDs would be for sale to fan club members, so you're in luck, Eric. :D Unless of course it's more than $10. In which case I can still see about burning it for you. ;)

I know. How awful! hahaha. I still haven't gotten mine, but my stuff always comes way later because I live on the West Coast. I really don't think I can stand waiting any longer. And if mine is the porn one! oh no! That'd mean I'd have to wait even longer. :cry:
