Thanks guys, just looked up the lyrics to Surf's Up (I only really listen to Pet Sounds and SMILE these days) and can see that it's a great complement.

As you probably know, Van **** Parks wrote most of the SMiLE lyrics.
You should try setting those to some sort of music. |

That's not true. Bob's voice was personal so it wasn't ****ty. He has a personality.

I don't think it's supposed to be an insult as in the Bob is bad because he has a bad voice, just that he's not a traditionally good singer. Lots of Rock musicians don't really. Elliott Smith wasn't that great a singer, especially for some of the notes he'd try and hit, Connor Oberst is just the worst (but I can't stand his music either), and J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. just kinda mumbles pretty, but they all have fans.

Don't get me wrong, I like Bob Dylan. Was just saying that if you have good music, your voice takes the back seat.

Shark infested water glass teetering
On the third arm of my chair. The stained glass painting smirked and pondered the sight. Half my skin mask Glowing, flickering vermillion in rays of fire. Cloth-bound bag of bones in the living room Hourglass in the kitchen In the murky deposit, the sand molds. Algae flourish on the fountain of youth Suffocated by immobility it pushes back inward. Knotted and thick the algae forms vines Too twisted and tangled to grow out. Licking the glass they long for shatter Or timber. Feasts ceased and water does not fill the void. A tumble, a splash a Kraken of sharks in my lap. Licking their teeth writhing on the floor. Biting their tongues in asphyxiation. Whipping tails and clenching jaws subsides Sharkcorpse infested carpet Below my gaze, doubling A cloth beneath the sharks. Shark remains infested furnace Chimney infested smoke. |
The moon leaked a golden crescent glow.
The sun blotted out against the sky Fiery iris, blinded eye. In the darkest place with the light seeping in.. .But withstanding the left-centred calligraphy portrait Of saints and those within the moral realms of hollow moon winds. Beyond the point of finding place in the daisies Among the light of the caprices amid the solemn pharoah bodies abound. Plight blighted candles saturate Among those where the eccentric flick Sticker. Shallow flesh rot away; falling. Often a fallacy but fate rate rises high In times of life or death envy. If only beyond tincture tinted feathers of the balded eagle To only the beast who passed and pluckeed. But to recycle styles of the repeated bile Smile below the flaring Of no Australia and to under the symptoms place. If to see the fouled and crippled fowl To decree emblematic seedlings of the mingled Tingling in the summer waves of taller Recreational bereave Ready for pollockian dementia politician piece of art science of painters Faded within the pluralist sights of landmark Marxian plateaus. Duplicity of the mixed entry harmonite spheres Years and derilient infested peers of the insider who once Disappears! Have you heard the myth of the backwards facet? To the absorbed misanthrope It all will push to a southern plush hammer. Fowled in beastly manner The dilemma of frownland proxy within a smiling manor. Planner of disintegrant banner within the Perplexities of banner within the June Prism while we suspect some Spoonerism Mister prune is them to limp Spill plush whale to well. And the beatless with their attempts at finding the Eternal set of monstrosity. Attempt the cast of pitch the beat asunder. Almost in placid silence Anticipated flocks crops released Beached inland and the land animals Push for out same Knee over the polished brush and hanging for lucid dreams in eve. Can't be from those horror shows before her of horror: Of eclectic persuasions though the plight Toward blended stem clams meal for the surreal appeal. As if the insipid thoughts and insidious language Were to enrage. Bewilder yet under an understanding outrage repulsive hallow gaze Stared directly past gallows for days strange as if at a blaze beneath the eyes. Anuls Odysseus of tableau As tough deposits delay. Olive base hollow case Of mind and of place. Push with the foreseen Or forced singe. With engine ending in twin meet. There are places where The night owl flies over the sign reading YIELD But you nonetheless run through the sign Nobody's home in the summer No bodies in car bodies Travelling somewhere where He, who swears, says, and declares that thru traffic does not stop Planes flying through where the bridge meets the volatile nimbus. Yet the grass leaned its darker green edges to the river. Plush endocrine sin sifts through my spine Gullet rescinds the vulgar pork rind. Hissing to spill the path of despair hunger line Clothing repair if to spare the air of great flair in there. Ends here, sphere, sends peers Spears reaps rapid shears. Enter the hillbound realm of the end is near. |
I opened up my typewriter (it's a travel typewriter in a case) yesterday and found this poem I wrote when I was drunk (probably, that's usually the case when I don't remember things). Here 'tis, it's punctuationless for now but I'm likely to add some in later. Or not if I use them for lyrics.
