Death Cab For Cutie - Amputations Lyrics






And if it was just how you wanted
You'd be glued to his bones and his brainstem
And changing your image and attitudes
Won't bring you back into your bedroom
Amputating as he's waiting
He's unresponsive 'cause you're irresponsible
Little swinger your bottle is thinking too much
'cause you're aiming to please way off target
And i'll tell you what you must already know
Of amputating that too slow

  1. A.... ....

    One of the best on the album

  2. s.... ....

    This is exactly my problem and it has always been...

    s.... ....

    This is exactly my problem and it has always been...

  3. O.... F....

    nice NICE

  4. H.... D....

    I love this band so much! And I just did a full cover of this song yesterday! If anyone's interested, please watch it :)

  5. T.... G....

    DCFC is soooooo under rated it's ridick!

  6. b.... ....

    i think the logic of the stalky-youtube machine amounts to "I see you're listening to music, here's some really popular music for you!"

  7. M.... M....

    "He's enresponsive cause... your irresponsible" !!!

  8. e.... ....

    Thats Glenn W. Turner. He is an old motivational speaker. Its from his "Instant Disbelief" speech. That guy is crazy but he has some really good analogies.

  9. S.... S....

    Who was the man that was talking? And is there a video of him saying that?

    S.... S....

    Glenn W Turner, I saw this in the comments

  10. o.... ....

    skr8 {masterpeace} <3

  11. c.... ....

    their best album imho, supersounding guitars and awesome gibbard

  12. S.... ....

    The one from Something About Airplanes is better. Rather, I like it better.

  13. T.... ....

    @lilly12363 Soul Meets Body is the loviest they got which has no bitter to the sweet quality... all the others aren't entirely lovey as they have some stipulation such as death, loss of love, etc...

  14. J.... W....

    Hell yeah, i live in Bellingham

  15. S.... ....

    @lilly12363 Most, if not all, of their songs are good on some level. In any case, Lightness would be a good idea.

  16. E.... ....

    @lilly12363 Does he Like ben gibbard alone? You might want to try The Postal Service,Or something from plans,but a lot of their songs are really bitter sweet,sometimes it's hard to share a song with someone you love when it might give the wrong message.i hope that helps.:)

  17. s.... ....

    soooo derrishus i could die

  18. J.... R....

    @GUNITsoldieification i actually like the older stuff way way better. it's more grungy (if you will) than the newer, whinier stuff.

  19. J.... R....

    @GUNITsoldieification and it was probably all downhill from there, hey?

  20. O.... ....

    @ninjapickle12 im glad you don't care, you shouldn't care, it's your opinion and it doesn't make you gay because you shed a tear, crying at something beautiful is beautiful itself. people need to figure out when to use the word gay and when not to. gay = homosexual (it didn't always but it does now), it does NOT equal stupid.

    BTW i agree, ben's voice is godly. death cab is my favorite band.

  21. E.... ....

    THis was were it all started.

  22. L.... H....

    @kaitlin4paramore It is! This was their demo tape (literally was a tape) before they made their first full-length LP, which was Something About Airplanes. The best ones crossed the threshold.

  23. D.... ....

    mighthave jizzed when the xzylaphones started playing....

  24. w.... ....

    Currently hooked on this one! One of the things I love about Death Cab (and the Postal Service for that matter), you can put in an album and one will just catch me and I'll listen to it 1,000 times before I can get enough.

  25. p.... m....

    xylophones make me happy. :]

  26. a.... ....

    Down and uplifting at the same time. Bravo.

  27. k.... ....

    i thought this song was from something about airplanes?

  28. P.... ....

    @EpicallyxMusical beautiful - n. see Death Cab for Cutie

  29. T.... L....

    Damn it Ben Gibbard.... your current style of singing has been overused by so many bands... its not your fault. BUT WTF! : \
    I'm trying to figure out when he came up with this popular way of singing.... that you'd often hear in bands like Owl City, Nevershouthnever and Goodnight sunrise.


    Man... this genre just needs to fucking die. We aren't creating ANY voice of a generation. Ben Gibbard is the original voice of "this" generation. People fucked it up.

  30. i.... ....

    underrated but should stay that way

  31. A.... N....

    yea i finally downloaded all their albums, including EPs and live shows. its amazing, the difference between the styles of the first albums and the more recent ones.

  32. H.... ....

    well they have like six albums so a shit load i guess

  33. A.... N....

    @okhello lol

  34. A.... N....

    man how many songs do these guys have???? i love DCFC

  35. T.... C....

    I like this version better than the one off of "Something About Airplanes." That one sounds way over-produced. This one feels a lot more natural.

    T.... C....

    I think that's part of the appeal of the other version

  36. E.... M....

    No they stated it as fact. =)

  37. K.... S....

    I want this album...

  38. p.... ....

    me too.
