Sonic Youth - Bull In The Heather Lyrics






[Kim]
10, 20, 30, 40
Tell me that you wanna hold me
Tell me that you wanna bore me
Tell me that you gotta show me
Tell me that you need to slowly
Tell me that yr burning for me
Tell me that you can't afford me
Time to tell yr dirty story
Time f'r turning over and over
Time f'r turning four leaf clover

Betting on the bull in the heather

10, 20, 30, 40
Tell me that you wanna scold me
Tell me that you a-dore me
Tell me that you're famous for me
Tell me that yr gonna score me
Tell me that you gotta show me
Tell me that you need to sorely
Time to tell yr love story
Time f'r turning over and over
Time f'r turning four leaf clover
Betting on the bull in the heather

Sonic Youth Bull In The Heather Comments
  1. F.... ....

    It's a TRAP

  2. B.... B....

    Another Day then?

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

    Can we talk about Kathleen Hannah 's role in the video? Looks like she accidentally walked in while the band was recording the video. 😬

  4. A.... W....

    The annoying brunette is the one who wrote "Curt smells like teen spirit" on his wall after they got drunk together. She is directly responsible for the name of that Nirvana song.

  5. N.... M....

    enial Band of grunge , best style .

  6. c.... ....

    Welcome to my 'probably under-supervised' high school years.

  7. G.... Z....

    Lots of people saying that since in the description it's written 2004, this video has to be from 2004. What can I say... OK, TODDLERS

  8. S.... S....

    If you don't listen to Sonic Youth at least once a week then I'm sorry, I just don't know what's the matter with you.

  9. A.... M....

    Haha, Kim Gordon clearly hates Kathleen Hanna, and her "Aren't I cutesy and punky? Ain't I adorable and cool?" thing. I don't blame her. Now Kathleen is an old lady too.

  10. J.... W....

    I knew some girls in high school who kinda creeped you out like these ladies. I was always afraid to hang around them in fear of one of them 'losing it'.

  11. W.... S....

    Remember Sonic Youth? Yeah me neither.


    Shoulda been nice to Nardwuar.

  12. m.... f....

    d.... ....

    daweller She’s the cutest pixie in this video though

    d.... ....

    @Samuel Placensia Yes I love her.

    d.... ....

    daweller I love her too. When I first saw this video on MTV back in the 90s I just melted.

  15. M.... ....

    M.... ....

  24. K.... ....

    Ultrasonic adulthood

  25. s.... ....

    this sounds like cool trendy neo futurist hipster store background music, but it'd need to be on an 8 hour loop to fit that.

  26. B.... S....

    I would say I think Kathleen Hanna is adorable, but that's sexist and I respect her as a woman and as a person.

  27. I.... F....

    Tem língua entrando

  28. R.... g....

    this group sucks more than i remember

  29. V.... O....

    Brasil 🇧🇷 here! 17/12/2019

  30. T.... L....

    that fangirl is so deliciously inappropriate.

  31. j.... b....

    These guys always suck

  32. J.... H....

    okay forever very good kids okay

  33. o.... b....

    The dark hair girl reminds me of a girl who's nickname was Little Guy. You know who you are

    o.... b....

    Midget?

    o.... b....

    @Masto Von Mastoson III ....No midget. Last time I saw her she was like 13. I want to see if someone knows who I'm talking about. If I name the town but I'm not.

  34. A.... B....

    why is there a Courtney love copycat in this video ? looks axactly like the clip doll parts with the frame bed

    A.... B....

    Thats kim gordon. And the whole baby doll dress thing was a thing in the mid 90's. Btw gordon sy bassist much more talented than love

    A.... B....

    @icculus19 yeah I know that's Kim Gordon. My point is not to say whether of the two is talented or not. I was just wondering if it was a parody or a reference of love because it is not Kim usual style to dress in babydoll

  35. t.... ....

    ya know...i think this is where my thing for grown women in pig tails came from haha

  36. R.... R....

    when my balls feel old i reference this video and am reminded there is still shit to give, i saw these lovely pricks in a college cafeteria in halifax n.s, early 90s maybe 93? ....by far the greatest rock show ive seen besides fugazi at the commons

    R.... R....

    I too suffer from the occasional bout of “old balls”.

  37. a.... g....

    That dude is taller than the horsey

  38. T.... D....

    This is a good song though. Any song sung in that breathy smoky voice is a good song as far as I'm concerned. Off topic but she's also beautiful. There I said it.

    T.... D....

    And you said it in a lovely order. She's also created a really compelling persona for this video. Just the perfect amount of boredom with the world.

  39. T.... D....

    Two questions; Who's the spazzy brunette in the pigtails doing what I can assume is an 'ironic' dance and distracting me from what really matters like Kim Gordon for example ? And is the guy with porcupine quills on his head Flea ? What was the damn deal with the 1990's ?? You could spend the entire decade in a Quonsett hut in the center of Antarctica and you'd still find Flea inescapable. Yes ok he's a talented bass player and evidently good company because he seemed to be everywhere I looked. He's like Nutella. Yes he's good but it doesn't necessarily follow I want him on EVERYTHING !!

    T.... D....

    the spazzy brunette is kathleen hanna from bikini kill, an authentic riot grrl.

    and the guy with porcupine quills isn't flea, it's actually thurston.

    T.... D....

    @1990 HA !!! My profuse apologies to Bikini Kill. They're a great band and damn near as influential as SY themselves. I am fully abashed. The fact that's Lee Renaldo is flat out hilarious. I appreciate you setting me straight.

  40. E.... H....

    So, what were doing in 1994? I was 8 years old enjoying Sonic on my Sega lol.

    E.... H....

    Moving from sunny southern Kalifornia to S. Oklahoma

    E.... H....

    I was in high school in the 10th grade. Lots of concerts, creating and reading zines, volunteering, and hanging out with friends. The early 90’s were awesome time to be a teenage girl because you were allowed to be natural and present your own way. Plus, grunge and alterna was beyond awesome.

    E.... H....

    Probably colouring in senior infants age 5 :)

    E.... H....

    @hardworkingdiva It would have been my dream. My sister was a teen in the 90s. Being a teen in the 00s sucked big time.

  41. D.... H....

    Why is the girl dancing?Who is she?

    D.... H....

    Kathleen Hanna! She's from Bikini Kill, Le Tigre

  42. R.... W....

    Sonic Youth always acted like they were so anti-corporate label.

    I was at a ton of local shows in the Northampton, MA area in the late '00s that Thurston was at and/or played in.

    This video is SO '90s, due to what corporate influences at the time thought a band should be doing. It's embarassing.

    R.... W....

    By the way, watch Soaked In Bleach.

  43. W.... S....

    the girl with the spotted diapers dry humping the band why isn't she singing? she would make it any worse?

  44. M.... P....

    When your lesbian crush doesn't get the hint. Such sexual angst. Its cool to see the video and song indirectly emulate that sorta coded message, considering this is a 90s era song.

  45. B.... V....

    This band is not very good... Stop pretending that they are.

    B.... V....

    Black Vitriol it's just not your style, that's what makes the world go round.

  46. B.... A....

    'Kurt smells like teen spirit!'- spastic chick dancing in this video

  47. B.... B....

    Google HATES logic (when it comes from the "unfit masses".)

    B.... B....

    "The Worthless Eaters"..."The 99%"

    B.... B....

    The 99% vs the 1%...I'll take bets on those odds.

  48. i.... p....

    Damn this is so good

  49. r.... ....

    Kathleen Hanna would probably hate me because of politics but I think she is one of the greatest under-rated musicians of my lifetime. Cheers to her!

  50. f.... c....

    Thurston reminds me a bit of nick drake

  51. f.... c....

    imagine thinking Kim was ugly lol I mean goals ???

  52. f.... c....

    Kathleen hanna reminds me a lot of young Björk in this video

  53. D.... M....

    Kim Gordon sucks.

  54. a.... a....

    WING KLAN, LOVE GANG, BECCO BEBBO AL CALLISTO

  55. o.... ....

    Kathleen pixie vomit Hannah

  56. F.... B....

    Kathleen looking like a long lost Cusack sibling

  57. D.... B....

    Becco bebbo ar calisto

  58. T.... ....

    Is this peak 90’s?

  59. S.... ....

    Watching Kathleen Hannah jump around is turning me into everything she hates.

    S.... ....

    @gopro_2027 no you?

    S.... ....

    Orbglob ok boomer

    S.... ....

    say more words that mean nothing, everyone is impressed

    S.... ....

    Especially on

    S.... ....

    @Orbglob ok boomer

  60. W.... A....

    The Kims ruled the 90s alt rock music 😂😂

  61. r.... o....

    Women deserve each other, and that's all they deserve! #MGTOW

  62. P.... F....

    punk rock or not, this is hot trash

  63. d.... c....

    oh let's face it sonic youth were always overrated. saw them live once and i was bored to tears

  64. d.... c....

    she looked about 50 in this video, what's she look like now x

  65. T.... ....

    Anyone got any clue about what the hell this song is about? I tried reading the comments.

    T.... ....

    The song is about exposing a sociopath. The video clearly calls out Courtney Love as said sociopath. To support the point, the following year after its release Courtney attacked Kathleen Hanna on the side of the stage during a Sonic Youth performance at Lollapalooza 95.

  66. S.... H....

    What was Kathleen Hannah doing here?

    S.... H....

    Jumping around.

    S.... H....

    @Boat Axe lolll

  67. B.... B....

    The 'TEST'... .. .

  68. j.... ....

    Red hot chili peppers with vaginas?

  69. s.... p....

    If youre a Sonic youth fan, like I was, don't watch their interview with nardwar because you'll lose a lot of respect for them, like I did. 😔

  70. R.... M....

    As my woman just said "this sounds awful"

  71. F.... A....

    I desire the brunette......who is she??

  72. F.... B....

    I love Kim Gordon, Kathleen Hanna, Dolores O'Riordan, Darcy Wretzky, Courtney Love, Nina Persson, Shirley Manson, Amy Winehouse, Donita Sparks, Patti Smith, Cat Power, Siouxsie Sioux, Alanis Morissette, Lilly Allen, Amy Lee, Bjork, Blondie, Chrissie Hynde, Janis Joplin, Joan Jett, Kim Deal, PJ Harvey. LAS AMO A TODAS! GIRL POWER.

  73. J.... B....

    It genuinely embarrasses me that so many people in my age cohort swear that this is one of the greatest bands ever. Everyone's laying into "boomers" these days, but Jesus, Gen-Xers and old Millennials (of which I'm one), you liked this fucking garbage.

    J.... B....

    No one cares about boomers and most of the negative comments about this band are very recent.

  74. c.... s....

    This is the most rock star of the famous, but not because it's fame rock, though it's definitely not different from rock fame. It's just that the famous rock star fame of the fame stars is so rock, that the famous rock star fame rock star famous is rock star famous star rock fame star. Rock.

  75. E.... F....

    bleahhhhhh

  76. N.... S....

    she looks like the chick who smokes all the meth and has nothing interesting to say

  77. N.... S....

    thirsty gitz
    never kim
    she just makes everything suck

  78. j.... j....

    I Thought that crazy Chick was Winona Ryder..after that i discovered that is Kathleen Hanna...

  79. A.... R....

    Forever young

  80. a.... ....

    Oh mu god, this teenage schlager is so bad that Nirvana seems like music genius.

    a.... ....

    2.7k comments later, this guy blows everyone's mind.

  81. K.... S....

    Still a fucking great song

  82. P.... S....

    Saw the thumbnail and thought "The blonde is totally passable." Turns out it's not drag. Never heard this band before this.

    P.... S....

    verdict on sonic youth?

  83. C.... A....

    Can somebody who was older in the 90s please explain the sexy-baby thing to me? Were they doing it ironically, to make a statement? Or was this a fashion thing that I just don't get?

    I didn't notice the daybed is actually a crib, and that Kim is wearing a child's dress until I realized Kathleen Hanna is doing the "look-I'm-a-brat" thing.

    C.... A....

    Something associated to youth maybe.

    C.... A....

    @8Bit Time Traveler Well, yeah, but I mean... Looking for an insightful explanation from someone who can put this particular trend in context...

  84. C.... A....

  85. D.... H....

    Where is the beef?

  86. M.... K....

    Kathleen Hanna is too cute in this

  87. J.... P....

    Uhhh...
    Who’s that 5 year old girl that keeps bouncing around?

    J.... P....

    Kathleen Hanna. And I wish I could travel back to 1994 and get off with her

  88. 1.... ....

    Great song.

  89. K.... H....

    Saw these 2nd to the end of Reading festival 96 just b4 the stone roses. Sonic Youth were brilliant completely blew the roses away and I'm a big roses fan ,I remember the flashing lights at the end of their set .They should have headlined, the roses didn't have reni or.squire and sounded terrible I saved all my money to see the roses but at least I saw a great gig shorter than the roses but fantastic

  90. Y.... Y....
