Cowgirl Lyric Query
 

For ages I've always assumed the lyric to be
"Why don't you come out I feel like flying in twos"

whereas a friend (and most lyric sites online) are claiming it to be
"Why don't you call me I feel like flying in two"

does anyone else have any other interpretations?

Re: Cowgirl Lyric Query
 

I agree with your friend :)

"Why don't you call me, I feel like flying into"

you'll never win this one.

I can't help but hear "homeless strays, gathering..." in Juanita even though the consensus is "homeless trees". You'll go in circles. Save yourself now! :P

Re: Cowgirl Lyric Query
 

Haha, I've always thought it was "homeless strays"!

Re: Cowgirl Lyric Query
 

this is what i hear too

Re: Cowgirl Lyric Query
 

it is homeless strays - why would it be homeless trees????

strays (as in cats) that have no homes...

trees homeless?

makes no sense

and its 'into it' in cowgirl

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's "flying in two". Especially since on this tour, on the shadow screen, Karl specifically held up two fingers (like scissors) every time he sang "two."

'Homeless strays' makes more sense in the context of the full lyric - 'cats are gathering outside your window, homeless strays'.

But who really gives a shit, it's all about what you take from the song on a personal level. And Karl's barely intelligible on a lot of tracks, anyway xD

haha, where were you all 5 years ago when I felt like I was nuts for suggesting 'strays'?? :D

also, i think its "feel like flying in two" -- I too have seen the 'two fingers' during some shows.
