Tenacious D - Cosmic Shame Lyrics
If I was just going to say one thing to you all tonight,
I'd say, set the artist free.
I'm talking about this artist in here, set it free!
I'm saying, quit your day job!
Now, I know a lot of you people here, you're saying,
Quit your day job!
Focus on your craft, one time, before it's all over,
You've died, you've squandered it.
You fuckin' robots!
Now after a couple years of you focusing earnestly on your craft,
KG and I will swoop in, we will check out your progress,
And we will encourage you to continue!
Or we will say stop.
And then seriously, you must stop,
Because listen,
This is the problem.
Sometimes you follow your heart,
Sometimes your heart cuts a fart
That's the cosmic shame!
That's the cosmic shame!
And I know what you are saying now,
What makes you guys so fucking good?
I don't fucking know,
And I don't like it!
I stay up going fuck!
Why can't everybody fucking have it?
Because this is the thing,
Some people learn it on the streets,
Some people learn it in the schools,
Me and KG, we were fucking born with it, homes!
Just check it out!
[Skat]
That shit came off the top of my fucking head y'all,
Off the top of my head y'all!
Oh God!
Why, why, why?
It's the cosmic shame!

One of the most underrated tracks of al time.

he always wears shorts
"Sometimes you follow your heart...
Sometimes your heart cuts a fart."
Possibly the most wise words ever.
It's amazing how two fat guys with guitars can create more melody than a lot professional bands with 4, 5 people out there. THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD!
@gregory panagiotopoulos It's part of their comic style.
gregory panagiotopoulos also as a former fat boy i can tell you it's a bit harder to play guitar with the extra mass on your body.
and I don't think it's meant as fat shaming. i could be wrong, but acknowledging something isn't automatically the same as talking shit about it.
The joke has always been "a band pretending to be the best in the world".... well the joke is on us cus they really are the best in the world haha
They're not the best band in the world, they're the TRIB-UTTTTTTE YEAHHHHHH
67 people need to quit their fuckin' day jobs. :)
+010karl010 fucking stoners... the number WILL change get over it
@Murda Willson I apologise for your bad life. We will try to be less humorous around you.
@010karl010 shouldn't be hard for a humorless douchebag like you, oh hey myan its up to 75 dislikes now, makes sure you beat ur meat ya bitch..
@Murda Willson cry harder lol
3918 likes now :D
Shit I just creamed myself.
I've seen this video dozens of times and just now noticed that JB doesn't play a single note on his guitar.
@Brandon Cook He reached the point where he doesn't need too anymore to rock.
He's pretty much the backup guitar and the lead singer, and for KG it's the opposite
How cool is it that they have this song which is funny and honest at the same time. I may like their HBO songs more than the album songs...
I am about to take Tenacious D's advice... I hope they swoop in to encourage me
Still going good? Has your heart led you to the right place?
I am still working for myself, but I ended up chasing my profession instead of my dreams... I have a lot more time to make music tho, firesickle.com/files/NightSins_11.mp3
I dont think my heart is cutting a fart :-)
Keep it up mate. Thats great.
I'm swooping in to check on your progress. How's it goin', are you flowin'?
awesome I m starting a d cover band
if im being honest kage has the harder job... trying to play guitar on rythem with jack blacks talking... bless both these guys, I love you kyle gass keep it up big guy
This is one of my favorite D songs
I wish they had a studio version on cosmic shame
Personally, I do not. I'm glad that they hadn't. I heard the song originally with this audio, it was a live recorded performance. And excellently done at that. I feel like hearing it any other way would take away from the beauty that graces my ears.
;)
I can see why you wish there should be a studio version, but it would not be as good as this version. I know your feels, though!
There isn't one on the Tribute EP.
JohnnyBolt54 no. It's live.
I’ve heard like 4 versions from different concerts and this is hands down the best one.
Mmmm it is so good!
I wish this song was on one of their albums
Download zedge you can get any ringtone you want
oh and light shows with this song are emazing
ya fuckin robots!

Fucking captain ed
Hes the best
@Th3BananaP33l3r
that's cocaine and cheese.
I guess that means I don't mind some cream in my jeans then!
2:18 - 2:35
i come back to this song a lot
keeps me on my path
Fo real
It shames me that I'm no longer on my path.
Hey you still alive ?
Same brother
set the artist freeeeeee :)
Me and kg were fuckin born with it homes! Check it out. Ribipdudip di didudip digudipdi digidip
DIGUGIGUGUGIG GEHEW-GEW
good night dude ?
58 people don't like cream in their jeans.
press 8 for the best part
For a minute there I thought they were playing in Melbourne, but then at the end people clapped, so i guess it was somewhere else.
GET FUCKED AUSTRALIA!
"Tili tilili tilili tuduuuu"
2:10 is fucking critical.
its motivational
"Stick around if you don't mind some cream in your jeans."
Why, why, why, why, why, why!!!
That shit came off the top of my fuckin head y'all!
stick around if you don't mind some cream in your jeans
I got kids to feed..jack!
"Set the artist free"
i loved the show because they were so full of themselves and nobody gave a shit about their music
How'd you hear that? He just says "good night".
Did KG say thank you Quebec ?
haha Jack Black is like one of the only guys that could make a vocal solo like that sound so incredible
Then Kyle Gass comes in and just puts the cherry on top.
Is he channeling Chris Farley lol
This song has almost the exact same chord progression as "You Oughta Know" by Alanis Morissette
man this song got me thru a whole heap of study
57 people probably didnt watch the whole video.
Jesus Ranch.
Master Exploder doesn't count, and the solo in Tribute isn't as good.
57 people had there heart cut a fart.
Perhaps the greatest Tenacious D song that is not located in an album.
what make you guys so fucking good, i dont fucking know
No, there are other versions that are even better. Not to mention the mic-less solo when he has the Pick.
you fucking robots
tried to pause it to put on some jeans, but i couldnt couse its to epic so youtube wouldnt let me... had to settle for them comming in my ear-pussy's xD
Greatest vocal solo in history!
my friend is doing all the time school projects and i tould him:
you fuckin robot!
thanks :)
