Oh No Lyrics

edited November -1 in OK Go
And it starts. To the best of my audible abilities I present...

[Let It Rain]

Super automatic pilot motor running down circles in the parking lot
Self-sustaining system bit her in the neck and quick and kissed her and took all she got
Did you come here to dance?
Whats in your glass?
Do you feel better?

Let it rain, Let it pour
Let it rain, Let it pour
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Let it rain, Let it pour

Cruise-control distressed, her kind of cursed and kind of blessed her, engine running on the fume
Vision blue and blurry, falling angels in a flurry, spinning thru the empty room
Did you come here to dance?
Whats in your glass?
Do you feel better now?

Let it rain, Let it pour
Let it rain, Let it pour
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Let it rain, Let it pour

Super automatic pilot motor running down circles in the parking lot
Self-sustaining system bit her in the neck and quick and kissed her and took all she got

Let it rain (Hallelujah), Let it pour
Let it rain (Hallelujah), Let it pour
Let it pour (Hallelujah)
Let it pour (Hallelujah)
Let it pour

  • [Oh Lately Its so Quiet]

    (oh no) Oh lately it's so quiet in this place
    You're not 'round every corner
    (oh no) Oh lately it's so quiet in this place
    So darlin' if your not here haunting me
    Im wondering...

    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?
    Aw. Whose sheets you twist
    Aw. Whose face you kiss
    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?

    (oh no) I dont think much about you anymore
    You're not on every whisper, oh
    (oh no) I dont think much about you
    But if you're not lurking behind every curtain
    Im wondering...

    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?
    Aw. Whose name you hiss
    Aw. Whose clenching fists
    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?

    Now whos house, are you haunting tonight?
    Aw. Who cant resist
    Aw. Whose cryin'
    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?
    Aw. Whose name you hiss
    Aw. Whose sheets you twist
    Whos house, are you haunting tonight?

    (oh no)
  • great job on let it rain, i always thought it was whose arms are you holding on oh no but whose house sounds right too so *shrug*
  • Help me out on this one...

    [Maybe This Time]

    Having spent your entire life
    Exactly where you are tonight
    In the valley between the [?] and [?]

    You must have mastered this
    The fragile art of a good excuse
    The little things that get you to the [?] (get you to the [?])

    So listen Im not trying to prove anything at all here
    But don't you think that maybe this time you were wrong?

    Youve spent your entire life
    Quick-tongued and always right
    Hasnt being just right let you down (right just let you down)

    So listen Im not trying to say anything at all here
    There isnt much thats left any that hasn't been said
    But don't you think that possibly this time its different
    Don't you think that maybe time you were wrong?

    So listen Im not trying to say anything at all here
    There isnt much thats left any that hasn't been said
    But don't you think that possibly this time its different
    Don't you think that maybe time you were wrong?
  • Dammit Damian! Stop mumbling!!!! (hence the [?])

    [A Good Idea At The Time]

    True about my taste
    True about my wealth
    The thing about St Petersburg I was never there myself
    So Cmon Yeah Cmon
    ..Aw [?] and cried all night, but I couldnt save myself
    So Cmon Yeah Cmon

    I appreciate your courtesy, your well earned politics
    But you got yourself into your own mess
    You know the demons in the design
    A good idea at the time
    Yeah seemed like a good idea at time
    Yeah seemed like a good idea at time

    Now how it all went down, auto pilot knows
    All I ever asked of him was when the bars were closed
    So cmon, Yeah Cmon

    I appreciate your courtesy, your well earned politics
    But you got yourself into your own mess
    You know the demons in the design
    A good idea at the time
    Yeah seemed like a good idea at time
    Yeah seemed like a good idea at time

    Now what you gonna do about it?

    True about my taste
    True about my wealth
    But you dont need no help from me, you'll yourself to waste
    So Cmon Yeah Cmon

    Seemed like a good idea at time
    Yeah seemed like a good idea at time
  • Im done.
    Damian's slurring and non-sensical lyrics are driving me up the wall.
  • In "Oh Lately", I think it's "whose clenching fists"...

    In "Maybe This Time", maybe "get you to believe"??

    (haha, a few of us have been working on these too)

    ..and yes, some of them are SO hard to figure out.

    I fixed [Oh Lately]. However in [Maybe This Time] it sounds more like "get you to the moon"????
  • I really can't tell. The music right there kinda overpowers what Damian's singing.. and I just can't figure it out. I'm not hearing an "m" sound, but then again, I could be totally wrong.

    All the rest of my lyrics have question marks all over the place tongue.gif

    ditto, lol
  • Ok, here are the ones that are driving me nuts! If anyone knows them, please let me know! (I think I'm going deaf from all these OK Go shows lol)

    No Sign: "and everybody's ______, didn't do no good, no sign of life"

    Crash the Party: "let's crash the party, _______ (hey hey hey), let's burn holes.."

    Here it Goes Again: "though all you cause _______, and you leave me with my jaw on the floor"

    Is it true? The fist line, I always thought it was "drew". Maybe not. Huhm. And about auto Pilot, we talked about that, we thought it was "only Pilot knows", reffering to Pontious Pilot.
  • For "Good Idea," here's my input...

    The part you're missing sounds like "onstage I may have cried all night."

    I think "auto-pilot knows" = "only pilot knows," but that's just me.

    And I think it's "you'll lay yourself to waste," but you may have intended that and just left out the word. That part sounds pretty clear to me.

    Thanks for the rest! You got some stuff I couldn't make out.

    Here it Goes Again: "though all you cause _______, and you leave me with my jaw on the floor"


    Oh, I've got some input for these ones, too. For your consideration:

    No Sign: "everybody's past attempts"
    Crash the Party: "El Dorado on the lawn"*
    Here it Goes Again: no clue. sounds like some kind of medical term. haha.

    *look, here's an El Dorado on the lawn! Does this make me a nerd?
  • Ahh, that's totally it! "everybody's past attempts".. that has to be it. I heard "El Dorado on the lawn" too, but it didn't seem to fit/make sense. But maybe it is.

    But thank you!! biggrin.gif

    Yeah, I don't know about El Dorado on the lawn, but it certainly sounds like it, and maybe he means "let's roar up in our El Dorado, not even bother with a parking space, and crash the party."

    Hey, I tried. unsure.gif <-- I think that guy's so cute, and "unsure" is sort of appropriate here.
  • El Dorado on the lawn. Great! Now I know I'm not crazy. biggrin.gif
  • Could be "Pilate"...don't know though....
  • Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

    I do believe that earlier in the song he mentions Anastasia...but don't quote me on that, because I can barely understand anything Damian is saying in any of the songs. But that's just because I'm dumb. tongue.gif
  • Stupid question....

    Do you guys have these songs online somewhere?

    If so, I want them!!! Let me know!!

    Thanks.

  • Does anyone have lyrics to any other songs on the album?
