Re: Crocodile Lyrics
My stab at them. Stuff in brackets I don't really know, just guesses.

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to call between my lips
two kangaroo fingers push
through and scratch my back in rhythm

slow foot
slow fast
waiting for a night to wrap around us
i could go in there
get some sweet stuff

all these things
in me (in me)
all these things
in me (in me)

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to hold beneath my skin
two numbers click between her touch
when you pull me down into them
rising and rising
[through the inside of a glass eye painting]
calling me in there
get that sweet stuff

all these things
in me (in me)
all these things
in me (in me)

vocoder stuff [did you walk around the stairs?]

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to crawl between my lips
two kangaroo fingers push
through and scratch my back in rhythm

slow foot
slow fast
waiting for a night to wrap around us
i could go in there
get some sweet stuff

all these things
in me
all these things
in me

Re: Crocodile Lyrics
I think Skyscraper's interpretation is pretty good. However, I think the following lines are incorrect--

"to crawl between my lips" (Might be "to call")
"two numbers click between my touch" ("Between her touch", definitely.)

My guess at the vocoder

Re: Crocodile Lyrics
I wonder if it's still Rick singing on the vocoder part like it was in Zurich or if that has been passed off to Karl.

Re: Crocodile Lyrics
I have been trying to figure out what that vocoder part is...

At the central park performance I was looking at Karl's mouth to try to lip read... of course to no avail...

Any new ideas?

Re: Crocodile Lyrics
yeah, from the live shows it looks like Karl is singing, and not Rick.

I also tried to pick apart what he was saying in NY, but, nothing.

Re: Crocodile Lyrics
your [through the inside of a glass eye painting] lyrics sound like "bird on the inside of a glass eye painting" to me.
