King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - 12 Bar Bruise Lyrics






I'd better be slave
I'd make some money
And so when it gets ruff
We can bruise some stuff
But look at my dick
I bet you it's limp
Should I quit drink
It makes me think that...

12 bar booze is 12 bar bruise, oh

I've gotta be strong
Make me live long
I'd better not wait
For a bottle's sake
All of my friends are
Looking up dresses
They have not seen
The bruise that I've seen

Bruise... wooh!

I'd better be slave
I'd make some money
And so when it gets ruff
We can bruise some stuff
But look at my dick
I bet you it's limp
Should I quit drink
It makes me think that...

12 bar booze is 12 bar bruise, oh

I've gotta be strong
Make me live long
I'd better not wait
For a bottle's sake
All of my friends are
Looking up dresses
They have not seen
The bruise that I've seen

Bruise... wooh!...

    Could Sam Cherry be the same character portrayed in Boogie man Sam track, from the Fishes for fishes album?

    J.... N....

    versegizz firmconed

  3. C.... I....

    This sounds like it was recorded on an iPhone wtf

    C.... I....

    It Is...

  4. R.... ....

    che spettacolo, inizio ad ascoltarli cronologicamente.

  5. Z.... H....

    i got this on vinyl and showed it to my mate who said: "its a hockey dad with a distortion pedal in place of a rhythm pedal; i hate it."

  6. L.... H....

    This really sounds like The Hives :O

  7. A.... D....

    This is probably their most fun album along with Nonagon Infinity. I like their fast-paced rock a lot.

  8. D.... M....

    To think that this twang-ified slice of Southern punk is the same group that spit the Turk-Psych sounds of Flying Microtonal Banana! So exhilarating - now that recording artists have been freed from the big label corral that kept everyone running in familiar circles! One day jazz, another - sludge rock, then Hip Hop and/or EDM, etc ... YEAH!

    D.... M....

    Brit-Psych? You mean Turkish?

    D.... M....

    @Bailey Travers Origins get muddy there, most psych of the sixties was heavily influenced by Indo/Arabic music, I was referring to the POP elements that Brits attached to that trippy old sound, using a genre label the only way one should - loosely, not referring specifically to the cultural identity any of this group's members. There are plenty of "Country" musicians who grew up in the suburbs. Specificity in this regard sucks, lending to rules that genre posers may find comfort in, but which stifles creativity in artists, turning studios into echo chambers. Brit-Psych (it really was a thing!), ALWAYS owed a debt to Turkish music, but if you can't or don't wish to hear the sound I refer to, then words are inefficient.🌬️🌈

    D.... M....

    @Dark Madder Ok I see what you mean, sorry If I came off sarcastic or rude. I just thought that the sounds of Turkish Psych in Flying Microtonal Banana were more prominent, due to the microtonal tuning and also that the band cited Turkish Psych as an influence.

    D.... M....

    @Bailey Travers What it is.

  9. M.... E....

    perfecto para correr desnudo por las playas de la Patagonia, en luna llena con una antorcha en una mano para incendiarme y que el mar me apague!!!!

  10. f.... ....

    Nein, nein, nein, nein, nein!

  11. J.... ....

    Stu is my dream daddy

  12. N.... ....

    There's something out of phase here. The stereo sounds partially inverted

  13. A.... L....

    Que buena banda la puta madre!!!

  14. c.... ....

    Be the banana.

  15. j.... h....

    I bought my copy of the reissue today cant wait for it

  16. Z.... P....

    RANGO ON ACID!!

  17. M.... H....

    these can can do anything the best

  18. S.... ....

    This is my summer anthem

  19. M.... G....

    They have gotten my attention all of these years. To me, they can’t do any wrong. It’s crazy to hear how much they have evolved😝

  20. Q.... ....

    would love to see this style revisited

    Q.... ....

    ye, most of their stuff now still has this sound on occassion, but they have not a made a whole song sounding like this anymore, they use it more dynamically now.

  21. B.... M....

    UH OH UH OH UH OH UH OH UH OH UH OH UH OH UH OH

  22. 1.... ....

    This was recorded using 4 potatoes placed around the room in perfect synchronicity

    1.... ....

    Tyler Belisle 12 whole potatoes on that one. You didnt like it? Nonagons probably my favorite

    1.... ....

    no I love the album it's a joke about the title (nonagon/9)

    1.... ....

    is this tetrachromacy

    1.... ....

    No it was 4 eggs

    1.... ....

    @Tyler Belisle 9 potatoes

  23. J.... B....

    high hopes low sounds a lot like grease 2 by thee oh sees

    J.... B....

    often sounds like FIDLAR too

    J.... B....

    +Jaki Bösezeit My thoughts exactly! John's stuff definetely had a big influence on Stu.

    J.... B....

    totally can see the connection

  24. I.... ....

    early mint chicks vibes anyone?

    I.... ....

    Atomic Reptilia fuck yes!!

  25. U.... t....

    sam cheries last shot ruins the album imo

    U.... t....

    you ruin the album imo

  26. B.... J....

    Wow, the difference.

    B.... J....

    Still Fantasmic, but much more psych-Noise Garage than the current prog influenced sound.
    Not to take away from how diverse they always are.

    B.... J....

    KGATLW would really help to save space in a rock music time capsule

  27. A.... A....

    WOW this is good.

  28. M.... ....

    I seriously love this album.

  29. S.... M....

    weeena lucho

  30. l.... ....

    FOOTY FOOTAY

  31. D.... D....

    420 likes. I vote we all dislike it in place of liking it so that remains untouched.

  32. B.... C....

    if you like king gizzard give p dot a listen (if you can find him)

  33. A.... H....

    Petition for flightless records to repress this masterpiece :
    https://www.change.org/p/flightless-records-petition-to-have-king-gizzard-and-the-lizard-wizard-first-lp-repressed?recruiter=false&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink

    A.... H....

    A.... H....

    Alex Huet only 112 people til repress maybe

  34. G.... H....

    Title track was recorded with Iphones

  35. S.... ....

    apparently the title track was recorded using 4 iphones placed around the room

    S.... ....

    while Stu Mackenzie sang into one of them

    S.... ....

    lo-fi style?

    S.... ....

    You’re thinking of float along fill your lungs

    S.... ....

    @Monotone No, he isn't. Read the wiki page for 12BB.

  36. T.... H....

    Why are their earlier releases so hard to find in physical form? Actually, it seems like everything that was released before I'm in Your Mind is super hard to find. Anyone know why? Or better yet, anyone hear news that they might reissue the early stuff?

    T.... H....

    I do believe there are some dodgy bootlegs doing the rounds..whilst I do not approve of such things the cost to buy 12 bar bruise is beyond most peoples wallets!!

    T.... H....

    Theyve just announced reissues

    T.... H....

    Well, here we are, represses exist. Get em before your post becomes relevant again.

    T.... H....

    Your wish has been granted, get your ass over to a local record store, and fast dude!!

    T.... H....

    @Martin Langhorn theres a float along vinyl on amazon uk for nearly £200

  37. J.... F....

    17:50 - that's a Radio Shack Concertmate 650. My day is is officially made.

  38. N.... ....

    is 12 bar bruise a pun for 12 bar blues ?

    N.... ....

    They like to stick together.

    N.... ....

    Bit of a sticky situation.

    N.... ....

    purely coincidence. Kenny got beat up in a bar and had 12 bruises.

    N.... ....

    you could say the chord progression really STUCK the song together

  39. J.... L....

    this is one of my favorite bands

    J.... L....

    You're not alone. None of their albums ever get old. Can't wait to see all the new albums they have in store for this year.

    J.... L....

    Yeah, 5 albums this year? Whaaaaat!?

    J.... L....

    for real their albums don't get old because there is so many to choose from and I think they are all stellar material

    H.... L....
