Devo - Gut Feeling Lyrics






Something about the way you taste
Makes me want to clear my throat
There's a method to your movements
That really gets my goat
I looked for silver linings
But you're rotten to the core
I've had just about all I can take
You know I can't take it no more

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

Centered 'round long time ago
On your ability to torment
Then you took your tongs of love
And stripped away my garment
I looked for silver linings
But you're rotten to the core
I've had just about all I can take
You know I can't take it no more

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut feeling, feeling

I've got a gut feeling
I've got a gut... woooo, hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo... OHHH

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again, oh move it up and down now

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again, oh move it all around now

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again, oh move it up and down now

Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again, oh move it all around now

  2. T.... C....

    Just realised Django Django ripped off this riff plus the guitar tone and everything in one of there tunes hahahaha

  3. D.... L....

    Whoever thumbs down Devo is a piece of shit

  4. d.... ....

    Out of curiosity...... Why doesn't it say: "actual size" across the hat like on my original record?

    d.... ....

    Probably a downloaded image not the vinyl album.

    d.... ....

    @The Kraemer That's kinda a ripoff, don't you think?

  5. N.... I....

    That 5-chord round trip is mind-blowing

  6. t.... t....

    Those first 2 minutes and five seconds ... one of the best things in music history, including Bachs and Wagners. The simplicity of genius.

  7. h.... ....

    did they play at ny club cbgb?

  8. T.... H....

    Steve Sissou!

  9. M.... C....

    Great stuff. Glad I lived it. That period in time was the last gasp of freedom, never happen again. Driving my wife nuts with devo. JBL150A's bud.

  10. P.... G....

    Cannot be bettered.

  11. W.... ....

    I sink hez got ze crazy eyes.

  12. J.... L....

    328 dislikes? That is 328 people that deserve to have long term hearing loss. I am going to thumbs down songs by Culture Club, Frankie goes to Hollywood, Vanilla Ice and a few others at least 328 times in retaliation!

  13. W.... C....

    When was a kid I thought the lyrics said, "I got a gun!  So beat it!"  Which I think are actually better.

  14. y.... ....

    OG SKATE soundtrack??

  15. J.... S....

    When do the lyrics begin?

    J.... S....

    The secret answer to that question is right at the end of this song before the transition to Slap Your Mammy.

  16. 5.... ....

    I like the medeoker mellow rythm

  17. M.... U....

    Non Stop Loop the past Hour!

  18. J.... A....

    This song fixes broken DNA.

  19. R.... E....

    Chi Chi Rodriquez on the cover, priceless.

  27. V.... H....

    I think it started out as but feeling but they had to edit it

  28. V.... H....

    Asking me to pick up the shovel and I'll make the sound like they did at the end of the song

  29. V.... H....

    You fax probably never even heard capital a town

  30. C.... K....

  31. S.... ....

    I just randomly came upon this - but I regonise it from Life Aquatic. Nice song

  32. Y.... G....

    Gold AWSM

  33. s.... ....

    Imagine being so high that you build a tool that’s never been seen before. The other guys around you are holding sticks, you’ve got a pulley on the left—a lever on the right. Your thumbs are fucking opposed. Forever. You can’t perceive a world without this tool. You show it to your compatriots, near roaring with pleasure over the utility and the sheer efficiency of it. They laugh. You’ve never heard a laugh so long or deep. “No one needs this! Fool!” You pause and retreat, afraid of what you’ve created. Are they wrong? Are you a fool? You declare! NO! Thus progress! Thus technology! d e v o!

  34. m.... ....

    Wow, Tom Brady on an album cover in the 70s. He aged very well.

  35. W.... ....

    All Spud Boys remember this tune fondly

  36. G.... J....

    Perhaps it's time we begin a devolution .

    One of the great albums of all times. What's more, Devo was right.

  62. C.... B....

    another perfect New Wave classic

  63. L.... M....

    Excellent ! Excellent !

  64. Y.... D....

    Jan. 79 I played this song over and over in my yellow Citroën 2 CV on the deserted icy streets of the Grenoble universty campus between 2 am and 4 am with my Friend Georges and a bottle of vodka, chain smoking gitanes cigarettes, wishing this 79 winter Never ends . 2 years layer I was in the army, again in the icy snow, but running to the top of my lungs at the same odd jours, in the deserted countryside of Eastern France, a mad sergeant shrieking " faster, faster !" to the Platoon.

    Y.... D....

    C'est drôle de tomber sur ce commentaire alors que j'ai beaucoup écouté ce morceau (presque 30 ans plus tard cela dit) et suis de Grenoble aussi

    Y.... D....

    @Chuck B je suis breton mais j'ai fait mes études à Grenoble, l'armée à commercy et le début de ma vie professionnelle à Metz. Super morceau !

  65. G.... M....

    Slap something next?

  66. G.... s....

    One of my favourite tracks . From the most underrated band of the last century. Perfect.

  67. T.... ....

    One of the great albums of all time, for the simple reason that the sound and feel of Devo, in my estimation, anyway, is wholly original. Their roots seem to be unattributable to anyone but themselves. Thees I like! 😎

  68. R.... W....

    I got to see this band at the Long Beach Arena for the 1st time , New Years eve 1979 . I went with my buddy Erik Maehl & lo & behold we met up with one of our misfit brothers, David Kirby. " X" opened for them(u know john doe & Exene, don'tcha?) first time we'd ever seen dem as well!( they friggin ROCKED!!!) wellll ,after the concert we 3 left with our "booty 4 the future,( bright yellow devo chemical suits) ON wearing them all the way to Pasadena so as to march down Colorado blvd in the "ROSE PARADE" check it out if you know how you will probably be able to find some footage with our fool 16 yr old asses being DEVO

  69. R.... W....

    I AM DEVO I am devo i am devo i am devo i am devo i am devo....etc

  70. G.... T....

    Bass is excellent

  71. D.... M....

    Colored vinyl! Think mine was yellow.

  72. L.... D....

    Queste cose sono di una modernità assoluta

  73. D.... T....

    Best fucking song ever.
    Anger is an energy.

  74. P.... A....

    i'm french and i hear "got got peanut" c'est grave docteur ?

  75. j.... y....

    He wears a hat because under it he's bald; and that's a problem. Were told.

    j.... y....

    We're told.

    j.... y....

    We are told.

  76. P.... P....

    Romanzo Criminale Indagine scialoja

  77. G.... S....

    I gotta ask... is this song in 5/4 time? 4/5 time? Four beats per bar, but five bars per measure. (Which is very unusual, I've never heard any other song do this.)

    G.... S....

    They were good about those kind of things. (Never heard other song do that.)

  78. R.... B....

    Bump a bloke on the bus years ago, had a comment about the devo button badge on the jacket, music like beauty lies in the eye of the beholder

  79. D.... R....

    Imagine you are in your bedroom . Its 1994 . You are 14 . And you stumble upon this by accident and it totally rewires your brain from there on out !

  80. T.... ....

    The bass line on this song is just unbelievably fantastic. I fookin’ LOVE Devo!

  81. C.... N....

    Something about the way you taste
    Makes me wanna clear my throat
    There's a message to your movements
    That really gets my goat

    I looked for sniffy linings
    But you're rotten to the core
    I've had just about all I can take
    You know I can't take it no more

    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling

    Centered 'round long time ago
    On your ability to torment
    Then you took your tongs of love
    And stripped away my garment

    I looked for sniffy linings
    But you're rotten to the core
    I've had just about all I can take
    You know I can't take it no more

    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut feeling, feeling
    Got a gut feeling
    Got a gut

    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    (Oh, move it up and down now)
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    (Oh, move it all around now)
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    (Oh, move it up and down now)
    Slap your mammy down
    Slap your pappy down again
    (Oh, move it all around now)

  82. M.... G....

    Well this is, and always be AWSOME!

    M.... G....

    ..with an added 'E'!

  83. B.... B....

    people forget what great balls out rock act Devo could be

  84. G.... ....

    2019, still MORE then holds up...Devo is fucking brilliant.

  85. M.... H....

    I swear to God that guy on the album cover looks like Matt Damon

  86. X.... ....

    Best Intro Ever.......

    X.... ....

    correct!

  87. M.... R....

    Devo and Stranglers were my favorite bands in 1978.

  88. S.... S....

    The intro is pure bliss!

    S.... S....

    correct!

  89. �.... �....

    This song reminds me of seder yom by lahaka rhetorit, but i think it is the older song ?

  90. d.... k....

    288 candidates for auditory repossession.

  91. J.... R....

    It blows my mind this isn't there biggest hit

  92. w.... 0....

    Interdimensional travel. In song format. Enjoy

  93. O.... ....

    When people say DEVO is a 'new wave' group, I make them listen this song.

  94. M.... B....

    Love for the band aside; this is a perfect example of music and lyrics building to a crescendo. Its a little stairway-ish, no?

  95. M.... B....

    we must repeat...

  96. a.... b....

    Is this what homosexuals listen to?

    a.... b....

    yes. source: am gay

    a.... b....

    Definitely disliked by wallflowers and the inactive whiners ,, like yourself.

    a.... b....

    Yes, but something 'bout the way you taste makes me wanna clear my throat, sweetie.

    a.... b....

    @THE UNITS DEE XA ster Huh?

    a.... b....

    @Jay Williams Huh?

  97. a.... x....

    Such a jam. Definition of, I believe.

  98. P.... ....

    What a way to increase tempo into something crazy and lyrics only jump in at the very mid section of the song, very devo of devo

  99. a.... s....

    SHHHHHHH WAOOOOO MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!!!!!
