Ween - Birthday Boy Lyrics






Yeah! pain

Last time I saw you
I was holding your hand
And I couldn't wait 4
U to leave

I knew right then
That it was over and done
And I couldn't believe
That I was free

Help me now
I'm going down
And I don't know if I'll
Be ok
I'll be around
I'll be in town
If u need a place
To stay

When the wind blows
And there's a chill in the air
I hope that someone
Is taking care of u
I'm alright
Yeah, I'm really ok
Just so you know
I'm always there 4 u

Help me now
I'm goign down
And I don't know if I'll
Be ok
I'll be around
I'll be in town
If u need a place
To stay

    This song is so deep and disturbed. A beautiful massacre. A slaughtered masterpiece. Like putting cheese on chocolate. Oh... wait. Love you

    Is the end a sample?
    If so where from?

    The original lyrics for "Birthday Boy" were written by Matthew Geisel during his senior year at Bloomington High School North in 1995, if anyone is interested in music history. The copyright date was discussed as possibly backdated, since the release was considered a work in progress. "Birthday Boy" is a song primarily about former Bloomington High School North student Amanda Matson. Matthew Geisel was drugged a number of times by people such as Leah Horn, Louis Roualet, Mason Lebeau, Pat Jacobs, Daniel Geisel, Joe Jackowiak, and Adam Becker 1995-1997 surrounding original lyrics that were illegally copyrighted among other factors. Several people made threats in advance, particularly of drugging, that were carried out. "Dyers Eve" performed by Metallica is an additional example of lyrics originally written by Matthew Geisel that were illegally copyrighted. "Dyers Eve" was originally written by Matthew Geisel as a third grade gifted and talented student, and sent to Metallica by student Josh Surman based on his own words. Eve is the maiden name of the mother raising Matthew Geisel. "Birthday Boy" performed by Ween is illegally copyrighted.

    M.... G....

    you’re not just wrong, you’re stupid

    M.... G....

    Actually, I am absolutely correct. Were you paid, or are you just stupid? You weren't present when the lyrics were written. I often write about my original lyrics within the context of graduate coursework and receive A grades. Good luck with your meth habit!

    M.... G....

    Matthew Geisel so you wrote the lyrics in 1995 and ween stole them and time traveled back to 1990 to release it on the godweensatan album

    M.... G....

    The copyright was backdated considered a work in progress. I'll swear under oath in United States District Court I am the original lyricist of "Birthday Boy".

    M.... G....

    Matthew Geisel if you are the original lyricist then upload your song man

  9. M.... ....

    Man id view this song as like a mirror. It was how i felt when it ended all the things we did all the shit i been through just done. Now i see it as someone coming out of an abusive relationship like how i was, i didnt realise it but the knawing thoughts in the back of my head kept digging my new fear of the withdrawal of love still is here. Ill be around i wont be in town and fuck off thx

    My introduction to Ween. I heard this on the radio in what had to be 1990. It was a local high school radio station that played Alternative and Punk on weeknights, except for Fridays when they played Death Metal. I didn't know this was Ween. I just know I recorded a bunch of songs they were playing one night and this ended up on my tape. I just remember it wasn't near anything that would be interesting to me at the time, kind of slow, and had the singer saying "Pain!" in a defeated sounding voice at the beginning. Which was funny to me, and I would say "Pain!" like that whenever I was unhappy with something. Fast forward to 1993, being stoned and seeing the Beavis and Butthead episode with "Daisies" the very first time it aired; and learning Ween was two guys who apparently eat mushrooms and make music I would be afraid to put on in front of a girl. Fast forward another 20 years, without ever thinking about "Daisies" or that odd song with "Pain!" in the beginning - a friend of mine expressed interest in listening to Ween based on the idea that Jam-Band people liked them but they played "Yacht Rock". Which may have been him seeing a link to "Bananas & Blow" posted on some Jam-Band forum. We never put on Ween once. So we're probably looking at 6 years later and it's now today. I started listening to Ween 2 months ago, and since then I have not voluntarily put on any other music except for Ween. That doesn't include Classic Rock FM station in my car - I hate selecting and playing with music in the car, that is what I pay my local DJ's for. So if they want me to listen to Foreigner, Damn Yankees or ZZ Top, then that is what I will listen to. Otherwise, I have been on a steady diet of Brown. It's kind of cool that this is all new to me, and it is all very talented, clever, groovy and really fits with my mind. But it's kind of a shame to think on my 30th birthday in 2003 I was in Chicago, and an amazing series of concerts was going on - and I was probably just down the street not getting laid at a generic house music bar/club. So that is my current relationship with Ween.
