Beetlebum by Blur

Yesterday, I suddenly pined for hearing this song by Blur. The intro guitar lines suddenly invaded my head, along with correct and misheard lyrics. I kept hearing the outro lines of "He's on, He's on, He's on it" as "She's all, she's all, she's alright", 

For some reason, I remember my friend Roman when I hear this song. Maybe it was because this song was released when we were in highschool. That and the Robbie William's song Strong reminds me of him.

Nowadays, I notice how good the bass and guitar work is. 





Beetlebum
What you've done
She's a gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum

Get nothing done
You beetlebum
Just get numb
Now what you've done
Beetlebum

And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on
And all my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong
She turns me on
I just slip away and now I am gone

Beetlebum
Because you're young
She's a gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum

She'll suck your thumb
She'll make you come
Coz, she's your gun
Now what you've done
Beetlebum

And when she lets me slip away
She turns me on
All my violence is gone
Nothing is wrong
I just slip away and I am gone
Nothing is wrong
She turns me on
I just slip away and now I am gone

He's on, he's on, he's on it.
