Beck - Youthless Lyrics
There's a bottomless pit that we've been climbing from
Just to get on level ground
Shake your seasick legs around
Dead of winter in a logo town
Signs of life are soft and flickering
Deadweight to carry down
Some static is lulling me to sleep
Hang your clothes on a chain link fence
In a junkyard say Amen
Your mouth is full of wordless hymns
And run-on sentences
And they're helpless and forgetting in the background holding nothing
And they're youthless and pretending with their bare hands holding nothing
With these trademarks so bereaved
Tied my leg to a barricade
With a plastic hand grenade
They tried to turn emotion into noise
Need a teleprompter for my life
Need a pipeline to the night
My body can't get no relief
And this life it goes by fast
You're treading water in the past
Trying to re-animate something that you can't understand
And they're helpless and forgetting in the background saying nothing
And he's youthless and forgetting with his bare hands touching nothing
And he's helpless and forgetting in the background saying nothing
And he's youthless and pretending with his bare hands holding nothing

+Trev Mac lol yea Morning Joe is a show that comes on MSNBC at 6am til 8am are you familiar with the show?
yes it made me laugh when you mentioned it
ive never heard of this song till i saw the video for it and iver since then i thought it was awsome
So freakin' cool, The man 's music makes one moooove!
Seeing him in a few weeks down in El Paso. Saw him six years ago right after this album came out. He's the biggest unknown and underrated legend in modern music, in my opinion.
I think he wants it that way mate. He's an enigmatic minstral hell bent in the pursuit of musical alchemy...or something.
Well said sir, well said.
Bruh, seriously? He's a WORLD renowned Pop artist...Just about anybody below the age of 40 thats breathing knows his name as well as other VERY popular artists that are tripping over each other to collab. with him. Oh and did I mention he's won MANY awards including Grammys? So ya, I wouldnt say he's "unknown" nor "underappreciated" However, I certainly agree he's far more talented than what usually consumes the airwaves...
@Jake Lemons Let me clarify: He's unknown and underrated post-1996. Many people think he literally stopped making music after Odelay because it simply hasn't gotten radio play. However, the fans that have kept up with him (like you and I) know that he's been making amazing music ever since. To be fair, winning the Grammy (and the stupid shit with Kanye) re-introduced him to a lot of people, but all you gotta do is go read some of those asinine tweets that were spreading around after he won it to see what I mean: people saying shit along the lines of "OMG who is this skinny weirdo and why did he beat Beyonce???"
I'm 48 and know him well. Christ, do you think somebody stops listening to new music when they hit their late 20's. His breakout album came out in '96. Great musician. I figured it was the young pups that might not listen to him much.
Heard this song in Jimmy Johns and now I can't get enough.
The great artists have been banished from mainstream. :(
sea sick legs around....epic lyrics as USUAL from Beck....with regards 2 his hat.....Serge(Kasabian) and Peter doherty(libs+babyshambles) where it with pure class,almost made for a skinny bohemia style look......no fat fuckers could pull it off!! lay of the big Texan Burgers if u dare!! great album...gamma ray........takes you back to 1967
Nice sound as always :) Beck is super :) Keep on your music adventure my good man!
And to the rest of my fellow humans: Live in peace :) and work to keep mother earth happy :)
very borderline on club material....
Love this song <3
Am I the only one who wants to steal his hat?
I like the song, but I really hate the cover. Those hats are so annoying!
I love this track. I've been listening to this album a lot as of late. It fueled my lifting session today. Fantastic; Beck is amazing.
I love him!
beck is just such a Juggernaut
@q5e7f I second this notion
