Anyone know the lyrics for Play Pig?

[Thing In A Book]

I'm so totally in love with the Pig & Dan number 2 mix of Play Pig. Especially the lyrics seems to really catch the drift while going on and on if you know what I mean....but wait...what exactly is he saying...anyone have a clue?

Low grade buildings....architecture for the blind...beautiful (turd?)...amnesia...
I love this town...brutal...cheap frills...no flesh (flash?) distractions

everything simple...low (fibe?)...

these are some of the words I can sort out but I know there are many more...care to help me please?

Thanks!

amnesia

young bucks cuss
throwin' shapes
outside the job center
mine's a sun
and a
bag o' stickers
your red face lips
suck another smoke stick
you press play
on young misery today
i got my cinnamon bun
my distance from you
is the skin i'm in
wrapped in caffeine and sweet stuff

I love this town
brutal
low grade buildings
architecture for the blind
beautiful dirt
and the numb zone
excites me

everything's simple
no cheap thrills
no frills
no flash distractions
low-fi
lover
you make me shake
you make me grateful to be alive again

many predators

amnesia

amnesiaHaving remixed this, I got pretty damn familiar with the lyrics. From memory, I believe that "my distance from you is the skinamon" is actually "my distance from you is the skin I'm in", and "bruto" is actually "brutal". I could be wrong, but that's how I always heard it in the isolated vocals.

I agree with Sean, plus, got the following additions!
'Throwin' shapes' instead of 'Thowin' shapes' (may be a typo :))
'In the numb zone' instead of 'And the numb zone'
'Low grey buildings instead of 'Low grade buildings'

the a-capella part is really clear, think i'm in love with karl's voice, so deep, mmm :o

[TheBang]

I listened very carefully to the a capella again, and I agree with "skin i'm in" and "brutal", but I'll have to disagree with "and" and "grade". I can hear the "d" ending sound on both of those.

its almost certainly grade not grey

to my ears anyway

True, I'll give in, it's grade :D

I'm not quite convinced on the 'and' though, must say it's really hard to hear, even acapella. (What are we talking about anyway, some 50-year-old guy getting excited about the numb zone, and if it contains dirt :p)

Nice work, fellas!
I also thought it was "low grey buildings", seemed to fit the dirty theme. But we're splitting hairs, anyway! Fact is, that's a great set o' lyrics!

Looking forward to another River Run. I like OWB a lot, but somehow those EPs get me more emotionally.

[pafufta816]

"it's the skin i'm in" sounds correct to me, and it also makes more sense. "the skin i'm and" makes no sense.

[TheBang]

That's not the "in/and" in question. :)
