Barely Legal

Beck, Loser



In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins and I'm out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray-paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin' with a loser and the cruise control
Baby's in reno with the vitamin d
Got a couple of couches, sleep on the love-seat
Someone came in sayin' Im insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don't believe everything that you breathe
You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve
So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Savin' all your food stamps and burnin down the trailer park

Yo. cut it.

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?

Forces of evil on a bozo nightmare
Ban all the music with a phony gas chamber
cuz one's got a weasel and the other's got a flag
One's on the pole, shove the other in a bag
With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose-job
The daytime crap of the folksinger slob
He hung himself with a guitar string
A slab of turkey-neck and its hangin from a pigeon wing
You can't write if you cant relate
Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax fallin on a termite
That's chokin on the splinters

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(get crazy with the cheese whiz)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(drive-by body-pierce)
(yo bring it on down)
Soooooooyy....

(I'm a driver, I'm a winner; things are gonna change I can feel it)

Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(I can't believe you)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(sprechen sie deutsch, baby)
Soy un perdedor
I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?
(know what I'm sayin?)

  요새 유행어인 루저에 힘입어 포스팅...이 아니고 그냥 생각나서. 벡 앨범 2집에 실린 종전의 히트곡. 벡 본인은 자기 스타일이 아니라고 말한다지만 뭐 크게 히트했고 이런 스타일 남에게서 본적도 없다. 아무튼 돈 많이 많이 벌게 된 벡은 이후 Odelay라는 명반을 냈다고 하는데 이상하게 내 귀엔 안땡기더라. 사실 벡 노래가 내가 듣는 취향은 아닌 것 같다... 좋아하는 곡들은 좋아하는데 앨범 전체를 들으라고 하면 멈칫하는? 난 좀 그런 게 있어서 남들이 좋다고 하면 나도 결국은 좋아질 것 같아서 별로 취향도 아닌 노래를 지지부진 듣는 경우가 있다. 벡도 좀 그러는 것 같다... 줏대가 없구나. 그래도 이 곡은 정말로 좋아한다. 내 취향은 싸구려 리스너 쉭쉭.
