Andrew Bird - Imitosis Lyrics
He's keeping busy
Yeah he's bleeding stones
With his machinations and his palindromes
It was anything but hear the voice
anything but hear the voice
That says that we're all basically alone
Poor Professor Pynchon had only good intentions
When he put his Bunsen burners all away
And turning to a playground in a Petri dish
Where single cells would swing their fists
At anything that looks like easy prey
In this nature show that rages every day
It was then he heard his intuition say
And despite what all his studies had shown
That what's mistaken for closeness
Is just a case for mitosis
And why do some show no mercy
While others are painfully shy
Tell me doctor can you quantify
He just wants to know the reason, the reason why
Why do they congregate in groups of four
Scatter like a billion spores
And let the wind just carry them away?
How can kids be so mean?
Our famous doctor tried to glean
As he went home at the end of the day
In this nature show that rages every day
It was then he heard his intuition say
We were all basically alone
Despite what all his studies had shown
That what's mistaken for closeness
Is just a case of mitosis
Sure fatal doses of malcontent through osmosis
And why do some show no mercy
While others are painfully shy
Tell me doctor, can you quantify?
The reason why

BEN DE ORDAN ĞELDİM MUHDEREM,,
Love the representation of soapberry bugs and their mate-guarding behavior. Perfect example of something that could be mistaken for closeness/love if one was unaware of the underlying genetic mechanisms of behavioral plasticity, which is also present in human beings. Makes perfect sense that the song after Imitosis in the Armchair Apocrypha album is called Plasticities which is then followed by Heretics. So clever, Mr. Bird.

Listened to this song 10 years ago, I was 15. I feel so old now x)
Every time I listen to Armchair Apocrypha I imagine Andrew Bird as a parakeet.
I just want an audible gif of that fly rubbing it's legs to the violin to be played in my face for the rest of my life
this song is a brilliant among millions of stupid senseless pop songs about love
Pt br
ele está se mantendo ocupado
sim, ele está sangrando pedras
com suas maquinações e seus palíndromos
era qualquer coisa, mas ouvir a voz
que diz que todos nós estamos basicamente sozinhos
pobres Professor Pynchon tinha apenas boas intenções
quando ele colocou seu queimadores Bunsen tudo fora
e voltando-se para um playground em uma placa de Petri
onde as células únicam balançam os punhos
em qualquer coisa que se parece com uma presa fácil
neste show da natureza que nos assolam todos os dias
foi então que ele ouviu dizer que a sua intuição
estávamos todos basicamente sozinho
e apesar do que todos os seus estudos tinham mostrado
que o que é confundida com a proximidade
é apenas um caso da mitose
e por que algumas não mostram misericórdia
enquanto outros são extremamente tímido
diga-me médico pode quantificar
ele só quer saber a razão pela qual
por que eles se reúnem em grupos de quatro
dispersão como um bilhão de esporos
e deixar que o vento apenas carregá-las
comos filhos pode ser tão má
nosso famoso médico tentou recolher
como ele foi para casa no final do dia
neste show natureza que assola todos os dias
foi então que ele ouviu dizer que a sua intuição
estávamos todos basicamente sozinho
apesar do que todos os seus estudos tinham mostrado
que o que é confundida com a proximidade
é apenas um caso da mitose
certeza doses fatais de descontentamento por osmose
e por que algumas não mostram misericórdia
enquanto outros são extremamente tímido
diga-me médico, você pode quantificar?
a razão pela qual
Cntr + C , cntr + V
Se tiver algo errado, pardon
que buen tema!!!
Almost 10 years and this song is still fucking great.
La bombaaaaaaaa!!!!
His voice, the music, the video...., many thanks talented guys!!!
Drugged by painkillers after accident, can fly away with Andrew Bird, enjoy <3
Wonderful :)
Me recuerda a una morra con la que anduve un mes :v
love this song. what kind of genere is it?
folk rock

I like this song, and video.
I like the lucus channel
The sound is too crowded. His sound needs to bleed out a bit.
its perfect like this..

👏👏👏👍
My god this song is so old, memories :'(
3:08 "tell me doctor can you poop on a fire?"
+Emke De Jong Doctor can you quantify, the reasons why
you must be a lot of fun to hang out with
if bird had a bowtie on in this video he would have a singing bill nye thing going on!
I am so stuck between this and the four tet remix. Unfair!
Is it just me or does he look like Bill Nye?
Ana Lara me and 25 others agree
this is just unfair. too good.
Definitely one of my favorite songs ever. I recommend Devendra Banhart to all Andrew Bird fans also. Both incredibly talented and unique
I know your comment is a year old but I found it anyway! Never heard of Banhart before and looked him up today. Lots of great songs, thanks for the suggestion!
Love him
How is this song so calm yet so addictive
+MegaGraceiscool Calm things can be addictive. Take oxy for instance.
morphine?
the irony
you're amazing mr bird
olddd indieee <333
Where she went.
Your job is Unic..I never saw or listened something like it. Congratulations!
Wow! A New fan. Gonna find a lot of your stuff Andrew.
@Frank Ingram its all great
i know this guy my dad works with him my dad martin dosh
Andrew's best song!
No, danse caribe ;)
Roma Fade isn’t too bad
perfection, please come to Australia!
This's delicious to my ears!
This guy is amazing. Love his music!
Deception of Mercy..? Mercy Me!!
in a reductionist model all reductionists are math
I want Andy as my science teacher.
Great song, great singer. His voice is one part Jack Johnson, one part Nick Drake and a preponderance of his own excellence. He has a new fan.
in a reductionist model all biology is chemistry, all chemistry is physics and all physics is math
harika bi parça rahatlamak isteyen tayfa was here
Oh lord, it simply might be the best thing i've ever heard!!
Thank you, sir!
lol me too!!
A puppy and balloon led me here
Love for your intelligent lyrics and wonderful music from Portugal!
it's definitely in my head whenever I hear this song. So thanks for that! ;D
It does! Maybe some hidden message we've uncovered ;)
Gives a whole new meaning to the line "Tell me Doctor can you quantify?" ;)
Any Whovians out there? Did y'all see the lines on the wall at 1:57 :) Theres loads more at 2:18, can't think why ;)
It's funny because biology is just applied chemistry which is just applied physics which is just applied mathematics. So basically you're all right.
Science + Music = Awesomeness
Interesting thing about bird- he doesn't really know or care too much about science lol
your point is irrelevant to math being the purest science.
*Mathematical biochemistry.
This was the first Andrew Bird song I'd ever heard, and it's still my favourite.
really the first guy is right. Math is the purist science. No math no bio, no chem, no bio chem.
no, it's engineering. The bugs are robots
big deal
and the basis of physics? math. would you look at that, we've gone in a full circle.
sounds like Sting!
Alas, it's actually biochemical engineering.
Plz This song uses a chord progression super common in Boogaloo and latin music.
See /watch?v=XU8Yesm6sAc and /watch?v=MXp413NynFk
I love it...
The bass in this song is good as hell
This guy buttoned both buttons on his jacket (rather than just the top button) -- that's why it doesn't hang right.
Great song! Great video!!
Which song? I wanna hear lol
I really hope you are coming to Mexico soon!
this song was released a long time before Gotye released his first song !
Is it really that are you coming to Lima Peru? I just finished to watch this video for first time. I would like to see and hear this music live. (Sorry for my bad english)
Seeing this video on TV is what first got me interested in indie rock and stop-motion animation, and Andrew Bird has never ceased to be a fantastic performer and inspiration.
dude problem with socks?
Anyone else doing homework?
Andrew Bird is so scientific. :) He's amazing.
gave this guy a ride once to a mutual friend's show, great guy
Gotye copied this song hard
He looks like a short-haired Tiny Tim with Jack Johnson's voice.
Andrew Bird = Sexiest man alive.
[INITIATE THICK-RIMMED GLASSES] I liked Andrew Bird before it was cool to.
