Steam Powered Giraffe - Starburner Lyrics

Can I animate this!?

Slight nitpick but isn't Rabbit the one who says "oh boy" after Spine's "that's what the song suggests"?
Edit: huh I was sure it was Rabbit..

Either way. I like the dynamics between the three and the song itself ^^ and the three are precious robots.

It does sound like her

@Clockwork Couture yeah xD

The Spine: ("crying") Aaaaah-hah-haaaaah, uh wait...why am I crying?
Rabbit: Because you're a dummins, remember?
The Spine: Oh.

1:09 - 1:15 When The Spine jumps a freakin OCTAVE without batting an eye.

just eating Cheetos using chopsticks and doing accounting homework with my left hand (because my dominant right hand is holding the chopsticks) while listening to this song.

" I don't caaarrre!!!" Hahahahaha... yesss. Wow, I am absolutely in love with these beautiful humans. They have truly befriended their inner spaz.

They're robots lol

i LOVE rabbit in this song soooooo much,,

Just bought this album tonight, just got to this song, last part had me laughing :D

I definitely love this song <3

do we even have souls

SPG should have been featured on Sesame Street. It'd have been timeless episode.

I love this song so much!

"Do we even HAVE souls?!"
"...that's what the song suggests!"

Wait, if they don't have souls,
Where's the electricity?

Spells Word somewhere...?

"...ohhh boy."

I would love for his answer to "Why am I crying?" to be "Because you're a dumbass remember?" XD

Aw but "dummins" is much more Rabbit :D

i love these guys so much!! so funnily adorabubbles. or would it be adorkabubbles? who knows. me, thats who. just me. mwahaha

I love how all throughout the song they're all just like "ew no I won't save _your_ soul" then once Spine asks for someone to save his soul both of them just go "ah yes sos save our spine"
ah
I love you dorks

Hi fren!
Also Yee XD

This song is by far one of my very favorites! This band if freaking awesome! Visit us in Florida some time, Please? :D

come to Florida

amazing band!!

Will you ever come to a place like Louisiana? It's so rare that anything plays down here, and it's actually something I enjoy.

I second this. PLEASE.

You might see the Suspender Man.

I have to say I just love when these three argue this way ^^

hatch doesn't have a soul

The part at 2:10...Spine...how is your voice so perfect!?

when you run out of lyric ideas.

I swear there's a tiny chuckle after Hatchy's "NOPE!" xD

The irony in all of this is that they're all atheists. Loved how they where questioning it in the song.

I can imagine a video shot to this song being filmed in those really early black and white films, with the green tinge.

Favorite song in the album, gg Steam Powered Giraffe ;)

From a Tally Hall to here, wow, I'm having a great day. :D

I love-

I didn't realize it earlier but I needed that song

You gotta appreciate how the pace and tune of each song differs greatly from the previous. SPG knows how to keep their content a nice, refreshing surprise.

Ya, something that can make me lose interest in a group is if I listen too much to their music, but with this band it's possible to just switch songs and get something different while getting un used to the other songs enough that it's a matter of listen to some of their other stuff. Sorry if what I'm writing is way too convoluted.

Probably one of my favourite songs off this album <3

I've waited so long for this to be uploaded to YouTube!!!!!!

You are the BEST band EVER <3 there is not one bad song in all of your albums, all are amazing ! <3

Am I the only one that doesn't understand the dialogue at the end? is Rabbit saying "cuz you're a dummins?" What's a dummins? Please explain.

basically she's calling him dumb/stupid but in a more affectionate way

That's what I figured but I'd never heard the term before so I wasn't sure. Thank you!

I believe it's is a barb towards the spiritual bullies who spend their time looking down upon and oppressing decent people for the way they are and the way they live, all under the guise of trying to save their soul from hell, eventhough there is no evidence to support the existence of either. I could be, however, projecting my own resistance towards the bully-humans, but.... " I don't caaaarre!!!" :)

Poor spine cries 😞❤️

I don't think I'll ever get over this band. Their voices are all wonderful and they're so playful and I can't get enough of it (especially The Spine's flawless ability to go from deep bass to high tenor)!
Please come back to Southern California!

Thanks Elaina! We've performed in California three times this year- hopefully we'll be back in your area real soon! ^_^ -Isabella

+Steam Powered Giraffe Awesome! I've been watching all of your live shows on here and I can't wait!

One of my favourites of the album

I've listened to this song five times now and I still crack up at Hatchy's little 'NOPE!'

I'm literally in a laundromat right now

SPG why

At least you weren't on a bus, and realized you've been singing The Spine's parts in "Go, Spine, Go!" - then stop like "Have I been singing since "It's impossible for me to have diarrhea?"

This song is freak'n amazeballs!!!

These robots are so adorkable! LOL!

Beautiful, and uploaded on my birthday too - so lucky! :D

Happy birthday! Eat lots of cake. (Unless it's a lie)

+Emma Nekaf Aw, that's nice of you; yes it really was my birthday and I really did eat lots of cake! XD

+Shieldmaiden 17 actually I ment unless the cake is a lie. It's a Portal reference.

will you guys ever play in Aus?

*dances*

This song is fucking hilarious, these stops in the song is brilliant!

Gosh this is so good!

won't somebody save my soul

I'll save your Soul

Is no one gonna talk about the fact that Steam Powered Giraffe deserve more fans cuz damn, I'm new and i seriously am addicted to them

New to the band? Aw man I envy you hahah

I agree with you because THIS STUFF IS FRICKING GOOD

Man, I love these guys.

goshhhh I love all of SPG's songs why is this band so perfect???

Because they're BAE

+Abstract Top Hat yES. I finally found the answer as to why they are the best! I gotta tell everyone! :>

julia hummel Spread the word!

I would really, really want to see this one live!

Stars are always a good source of insipration for SPG

Delightfully weird

weird is usually awesome😉

This song is too pure and perfect and musical theatre I CaNT

And their creative metaphors that relate fictional characters to real life troubles... well, if one streatches far enough to qualify our social conventions as "real".

First! Wow that art is really pretty.

yeah. rabbit's so fucking talented it's unfair

I fucking love these guys.

Are you trying to correct me or agree with me?

Yeah my guy
