Beck - I Won't Be Long Lyrics
The time is almost over
The people are divided
So come a little closer
I try now I can’t fight it
Evoke the invective
I’m counting down the minutes
From an hourglass full of ice
[Chorus:]
I won’t be long
I won’t be long, long, long
I won’t be long, long, long
Can’t you hear the catchy station
Coming from another car?
No one has a clue where we are
Cause things are getting scary
We’re covered in a secret
Buried in voluptuary
Cause there’s nowhere else to keep it
[Chorus]
Oh so silently we go
Oh so silently we go
Oh so silently we go

Beck I Won't Be Long Comments
This tune should have got more attention.
Who listened to this back in 2013?
Stimpy the Cat :
..." One day, someday, Becks words will be deciphered and the secrets of the universe shall be revealed, now, where did I leave those nipples..?
One of my favorite beck songs
Smooth version between his voice and the instruments.
Beck is one example of pure Art at it's best .
Ptm odio los putos anuncios, quiero escuchar algo o ver algo y me salen huevadas
Ya just can't go wrong with this kat.
How to tell that the extended version is the proper version?
Listen to 2:58-3:02. You can hear the song seemingly skipping to a different part of it. So, it must've been edited down, and at one point the editing was faulty.
K-leb I've always noticed that too. Oh well. still a great song
Classic 😍😍😍😍👌
I hope he reissues the fonograf singles on vinyl, I want to legally own the extended versions of these songs.
wish this was on an album
temon !
"Oh, so silently we go." Is that true of many?
Had to wash that nasty new blink 182 album california out my head thank u beck for being awesome!
that is paul and george, been looking a lot at mamma anderssons paintings, love her style, it reminds me of something that i cannot place
So good it hurts
Mellow Goldie and more true than ever. Like it was written yesterday.
INCREIBLE
This sounds like an answer to the Beatles song Blue Jay Way...
don't be loooooong I won't be loooong
great song!
the Best of the Best!
love this song so much memories
Nice road song!
Monsta, I'm say'n it is indeed Paul along with George in that pic.
love ya
Erk! I swear I've heard this kind of hypnotic style of music from some other artist but I can't put my damn tongue on it...
@Gooper Goop deerhunter?
A great song for traveling on the road
Is it just me,or is that Paul Mccartney with another member of the Beatles in the top left picture on this cover?! o_O
I'm pretty sure its him,since i see that guy holding a hofner violin bass. Brilliant song by the way, Its a shame CD owner's cant buy it as a single on a CD...along those other two singles. Since all three of them are awesome.
While "Defriended" is my favourite one ♥
Yeah it totally is
frezIE POP!!!!!!!!
frezIE POP!!!!!!!!
I hope his next album won't be long.
First time listen... Great tune!
nice! I heard this for my first time on the local radio while driving through Humboldt County in May of last year, it was awesome :O
Genius song!
Pure genius Mr Hansen
No puedo dejar de escuchar esta rola. Otra joyita más de Beck.
Untouchability mixes with pure brilliance. Fuck Kanye West
This is why Beck never faded into obscurity, he always puts out an instant classic like this just when you forgot about him.
Wish the new album sounded like this. Hopefully the next one will.
This song actually makes me feel nostalgic about 2013.
This song sounds like it has existed forever, one of my fave qualities in a song.
Becks music is timeless :o
bass line kinda sounds like the one in graffiti by the throwing muses. love it!
Is the hourglass full of ice or eyes. Both would work. I cant decide which i like best
Ice: refers to a time device that's stuck.
but if that happened the universe would implode to restart a new big bang
i need me some beck david bowie collabs!
slamtimeson well I guess Beck's cover of The Man Who Sold the World is all we're gonna get.
Capo!!!
I saw him in Nagoya, Japan between Modern Guilt and Information (2009ish). Expensive, but intimate show. And he was a total jerk... Then he goes and wins me back over with this amazing single!
He was super nice to me... He's like the most humble human being ever.
How do you even get a chance to meet the guy lol all I would ask him is if we could sit down with a couple of guitars and jam out
Its been along time
Beck is a truly gifted musician. He is of a golden age bringing the past to the present and present to the future.
Very cool song. Can't believe this is not more popular...
This song is incredible
JUST HEARING THIS. Where were U in 96?
Making Music!!!
3 years old. lol.
-1 year old, but still I love Beck !
I've been obsessed with this song since last June (?)! I love it! There is something totally hypnotic about it!
Perfect production value as beck always lives up to.Better than any of the older albums, information meets Sea Change.
always top notch harminization...
Beck you are a genius, as always. Congrats on two of your tracks making Rex Manning Day music blog's Top Tracks of 2013 list
es hermoso
How my fuck this is good
++++++++++ Beck is a true influence +++++++++++
I want peanuts , i want peanuts, i want peanuts alone, alone it wont be long
Brilliant beautiful beck..genius
reminds me of selling sausages to insectoid salesmen
WOW! Just...wow! I love the way this song sounds so whimsical and playful, and yet, be so poignant and heartfelt. I've been telling people for YEARS that Beck makes some of the most interesting and innovative music of our times. I'm a HUGE Beck fan! Great freakin' track!
Genialidad!!!!
Beck is beauty reincarnated
I Won't Belong
this isnt exactly a "new direction" at all for beck(modern guilt anyone?)...in fact i don't think beck has ever had any type of direction.... except towards the center of the efffin universe maybe
i thought that was a pretty bad ass compliment myself
sweeeet!
what is your take on colors? it’s amazing imo
@Sandra Villasenor hated it first, fell inlove after a few listens. Still dont care for wow much. But imthe whole album is actually really well written and catchy
kyle manson yeah i loves Morning Phase! easily one of his best albums
pink mist eh brian?
Raí curtiu isso e ATOLOU no TOBA do Zeca Camargo
Zeca Camargo queima a rosca
You got your Beck in my Grizzly Bear!
You got your Grizzly Bear in my Beck!
Beck makes death sound so beautiful
I love you!
Aw ya.
I get a similar vibe from this tune as I do from Mac Demarco's latest album; really digging this new direction for Beck
I love 3:19- 4:28
i like where it takes the sonic youth turn 3:50 ish
and that reminds me of foster the people- pumped up kicks
You do realize this song is about death right?
Not really I'm listen to this for the first time
Master Beck!\@*&=+++++++++
This reminds me of Papercuts - Future Primitive
i feel this
so fine.
give it all away... everybody wants you
. . 1LL . .
hey Beck , do you ever read these ?
Nigel Godrich
It does feel like a very long time ago! And I haven't felt as moved by Beck since Sea Change but these tracks hearken a new pinnacle.
easy mistake for the green boys xd but atleast he is into good music
I LOVE YOUR COMMENT!
Cool song Mister Hansen!
almost 15 minutes
This isn't the full version? How long is that?
The full length version is incredible...
Oh yeah that's right. Well I mostly meant that they both play on the be long/belong double meaning.
This is very healthy for your ears.
The Beatles song is "It won't be long"
This might have already been mentioned.. but I like how he used the same title as a Beatles song and this painting has two Beatles in the top left corner.
Messsiah!
me relaja esta canción, y suena muy bien.
