Sonic Youth - Sacred Trickster Lyrics






I want you to levitate me
Don't you love me yet?
Press up against the amp, turn up the treble
Don't forget

Getting dizzy sittin around
Sacred trickster and the no tech sound

I wish I could be music on a tree
Noise nomads and me
Levitating on the ground
Uh huh uh huh
Uh huh uh huh
Uh huh uh huh
Uh huh uh huh

Whats its like to be a girl in a band?
I don't quite understand
That's so quaint to hear
I feel so faint my dear
Getting dizzy sittin around
Sacred trickster and the no tech sound
I wish I could be music on a tree
Noise nomads and me
Levitating, scootin around

  8. S.... B....

    In the 80s this and other stuff is all you could relate too.
    God forbid you could relate to your aunt who can see clear, or your female friend who can see clear ( with holes in her head).You were lucky to get even somewhere with a spiritualist church.
    It was so oppressive.It still is.In order to relate to “someone” I’ve got to pay them... “Oh please read me why don’t you!!”
    I don’t get homesick.Wonder why that was is?
    Our society is so bereft and emaciated.That is why most of us are fat.
    Our Ancient ancestors (bc) had it better than us.They May have been slimmer but they were more well fed than we are.The gaping hole was not so gaping back then.It may have been a shorter life but ,Jesus, I envy them

  9. s.... g....

    tf gem af

  10. K.... F....

    SY FOREVER!!!

  11. S.... ....

    This is the first sonic youth song ive listened to on my own accord. i literally had the phrase "the sacred trickster" stuck in my head, having to do with something in life. and found a damn good jam to go with it. Thank Gods for Punk <3

  12. P.... M....

    i cant get enough of Sonic Youth's drums, this band has got to be the most underrated of all time

  13. S.... B....

    I tell ya when ,Kim Gordon comes through, in the last song of “Eternal”, it is soo fulfilling.You would die for her.Such a great album! If I can’t have Kim,I thank God for the sun (and my cat).

  14. S.... B....

    Listen.It is f—ing brilliant! You need to listen.Shut up and listen.Sometimes I wish they got back together.
    Socio, political, psychic thrash.Kept me sane in the 80s.They actually evolved to this point.Even better!.
    Now you can listen to Lee Renaldo or Kim Gordon in Body/Head.They are pretty good too.Along with my psychic cat I get a”fix” on Kim Gordon, Lee Renaldo, and SONIC Youth. F—k Yeah!

  15. p.... ....

    NOISE NOMADS

  16. M.... L....

    One of the best videos ever.

  17. S.... M....

    P.S.A: Support your local bad girls !

  18. H.... S....

    Billordo - Redoxxxon Blues

  19. B.... H....

    worm hole music .. love the noise.

  20. O.... T....

    i think kim found a new vocal technique

  21. f.... ....

    i feel like there is a cliche to the movie la bataille d'alger, when they push the handbags with their feet before leaving anyone else notice this similarity ?

  22. S.... T....

    The girl in the stripy top is well hot!

    S.... T....

    to be fair they all are

  23. f.... ....

    middlestaged rocksters and nu age tripsters !

  24. L.... A....

    what's wrong with this video? it's provocative, just like you would expect from SY. and you dont get any image of the band pretending to play the song - as it is the case with lots of other videos. So this one's Ok imo.

  25. T.... A....

    Xem ca nhac

  26. T.... A....

    Xem ca nhac

  27. T.... A....

    Xem hai

  28. T.... A....

    Xem ca nhac

  29. T.... A....

    Xem ca nhac

  30. S.... ....

    I think Kim Gordon's is touching the 60 zone far from a kid

  31. L.... ....

    Not catering to the hipster fad. Nice.

  32. F.... B....

    hahaha muito bom !!

  33. t.... ....

    This looks like a shitty early 2000s video

  34. r.... ....

    1 million + views for that crap? wtf why did i even clicked this shit

    r.... ....

    video is bad, the song is great

  35. i.... ....

    This looks like it was filmed on someone's phone.

  36. B.... S....

    Well...  That was misleading...

  37. L.... M....

    Il video con le bonazze.

  38. S.... F....

    How wonderful! Another way to paint the town red!!

  39. N.... C....

    Patti Smith, Lydia Lunch...

  40. j.... c....

    Is it just me or do the girls in Sonic Youth sing better than the guys?

    j.... c....

  41. t.... ....

    たいして爆破しないのかww

  42. F.... ....

  44. O.... B....

    Amazing song !!!

  45. W.... L....

    them girls sure are pretty!!!!

  46. t.... ....

    Fuck you and the boston bombing...

  47. G.... D....

    these guys have been around alot longer than 23yrs mr eric.t

  48. H.... ....

    Ah, sorry, I took it a whole different way.

  49. V.... T....

    It was a fugurative expression.

  50. H.... ....

    No, you just think the next song is the same as this.That sing is Anti Orgasm if I'm not mistaken.

  51. H.... ....

    I remember being in France when this album was releashed. So I went to the Fnac and bought it and now I cannot listen to any song of the entire album without thinking of France dammit.

  52. P.... ....

    Love Sonic Youth, bought today this album, kicks major ass! Sad to know they're on hiatus. Their music is so refreshing, soothing, and also aggressive is a subtle way, as if they're playing urban jungle classical music or something like that, but it's Sonic Youth anyway.

  53. a.... u....

    The wave of a wonderful sound!

  54. V.... T....

    This song should lasts 10 more minutes!

  55. F.... ....

    Mark Ibold is the only man walking the streets able to say, "I was in Pavement and Sonic Youth." Damn.

  56. C.... ....

    Damn... this song i so sexy!

  57. C.... B....

    looks like Mila Kunis

  58. f.... ....

    pause at 0:34 for a really pretty girl

  59. N.... ....

    I wanted it to blow up in pieces everything at the party.

  60. A.... A....

    ::::===PPPPP

  61. B.... �....

    how did this generate 345 dislikes??

  62. M.... ....

    Because the video has violent overtones that are kind of ugly.

  63. z.... ....

    Sonic Youth is one of the greatest underground bands,this video is awful,it looks boring and lame.not like Sonic Youth's old videos.

  64. F.... G....

    because at the end, I think, Sonic Youth result boring and pathetic. Besides, this video is awful.

  65. M.... ....

    wtf...

  66. b.... ....

    I think the real tragic message of this video is that the girls never got to see the people blasted with paint.

  67. K.... M....

    在美国毛泽东思想越来越受欢迎

  68. c.... p....

    Mark Ibold looks like a grandpa now! :)

  69. N.... D....

    La Battaglia di Algeri

  70. j.... p....

    god i have an alarmclock just like this one))

  71. M.... H....

    well I did it with eggs

  72. M.... A....

    Uhuh Uhuh !

  73. s.... e....

    yo quieto una chaba como las del video

  74. c.... ....

    ¡¡buenisimoooooooooooo!! : D

  75. z.... ....

    @TheDallyLama I agree,they're other videos are all awesome and special with a meaning,this shit looks like is filmed by a 3 years kid!

  76. F.... S....

    462 people were tricked into listening to the radio.

  77. z.... ....

    @ikillmofos cause it's an artist name,I make songs and stuff,and that's how I named it!

  78. z.... ....

    @ikillmofos eeehhh,I'm a guy!

  79. z.... ....

    @ikillmofos overrated? Are you kiddin me? In my real life,when I ask someone about sonic youth nobady know,it is very sad,they're most viewed video on youtube has only a million, they are underrated! They are one of the greatest bands on the earth,they deserve more than this!

  80. P.... ....

    @jpsa5: You have no idea what you are talking about. Please, drop the ignorance for now.

  81. f.... H....

    hmmm al-Qaida lone wolf bomb?

  82. d.... ....

    Nice Girls.

  83. z.... ....

    @axe187187 yes,it is SONIC YOUTH,the greatest band in the world!

  84. N.... D....

    @rockmusicfansonly Same here. The first time I saw this I was really disappointed.
    Anyway... the song remains cool.

  85. z.... ....

    @muziekaub Exactly.

  86. w.... p....

    @zveena Because kids these days don't know about Gordon's singing and the massive history and style behind this band.

  87. z.... ....

    @Quasi8 ok

  88. M.... A....

    Killah Bitches, West Berlin Boy love that shit°

  89. T.... ....

    Beginning of grade 10 I had this on repeat for days..

  90. C.... C....

    @AtheistPanic Also note the clear references to Battle of Algiers. (Search YT for "The Battle of Algiers (sequence of bombings)")

  91. S.... ....

    For some reason, this reminds me of a movie, titled, "The Weather Underground". Sonic Youth has a track in that movie (Sonic Youth - Intro "Bad Moon Rising")

  92. m.... ....

    probably the worst SY video ever, but since SY are better than everyone else in the planet this video is the CAT'S MEAOW

  93. z.... ....

    @Quasi8 Do you actually know kim gordon?

  94. z.... ....

    This is freakin awesome!

  95. z.... ....

    why the hell so many dislikes?

  96. A.... ....

    @certainromance24 I was wondering the same thing. Nothing wrong with the song or video.

  97. n.... m....

    sonic youth rules!!
