Meat Puppets - New Leaf Lyrics






Back before the days, back before the water
The invisible waves slammed the primal notion
They said you were wrong, though you had connected
These watery songs cleverly perfected

[Chorus:]
Dispensary of predictable mind
like a new leaf, from the old days
unfolding now the most ridiculous mind
like a new leaf in the old ways

These slippery shoes never fit the sailor
all scattered and bruised since it left the railing
it wouldn't behave, bad at problem solving
so it couldn't be saved, all these things revolving

[Chorus]

Back before the days, back before the water
The invisible waves slapped the primal notion
they wouldn't behave, bad at problem solving
so it couldn't be saved, all these things revolving

[Chorus x2]

[Chorus]

    my favorite song of 2007

  4. F.... ....

    Agreed. I got into 'II' and 'Up on the Sun' about 6 months ago after wondering why I had never really checked out the band that wrote "Plateau", "Oh, Me" and "Lake of Fire." Here I am, six months later, and of the opinion that the Meat Puppets are one of the most ludicruously amazing bands that have ever existed.

    F.... ....

    you arrived at a correct opinion (otherwise known as the same one I have)

  5. T.... M....

    For years all I knew of regarding the Meat Puppets was their songs on the Unplugged Nirvana album and their radio hit Backwater. When I finally dove into digesting the band, I realized how much I had missed. They are probably one of the GREATEST bands of all time.

  6. M.... G....

    very good vibrations

  7. P.... T....

    oh well, better than most people

  8. m.... g....

    I've only just discovered Meat Puppets :D

    @okcomputer1016 I have a few beers and whiskeys in me.It might have sounded better than it would normally to me.I loved that track,they are a great band.And I would never have picked up on them in Scotland.If it was not for Kurt Cobain.The really cool thing about him is.I ended up picking up on bands from my own City.Who I never know existed,all down to him.Some were from over in Edinburgh to.Wish I had listened to them right at the start.When I was a lot lot younger,now I feel so fucking old.

  10. C.... ....

    Puppets
