KNOCK ON WOOD
WE ALL STAY GOOD
'CAUSE WE ALL LIVE IN HOLLYWOOD
WITH DRACULA AND DARLA HOOD
Literally all of his lyrics are just random shit he strings together while high. Prove me wrong.

What about the sad shit like Under the Bridge and My Friends
>>64824566
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll hippy dippy rip up your lasagne al forna in the south of California.

Prolly written with John's help. ;)

If radiohead or memegrips wrote these lyrics /mu/ would circlejerk over how quirky and artistic they are
You guys are so predictable.
>>64824947
But how will I get my hipster cred if I dont circlejerk over radiohead?
BLACK BANDANNA

COBAIN CAN YOU HEAR THE SPHERES

At least they didn't still do teenager songs in their 40s like Weezer and Green Day.

I thought this too, but when you here him say explain it them it makes a lot of sense

Burning down the 405
And I barely feel alive
Taking the exit for the 10
She told me She was my friend
I'm a bad mamma jamma
From here to Alabama
Play in a band called the Alabama Jammers
I send him my 'elema
Take a picture with your camera
I hope we don't get tricked by the Alabama Scammer
Bing-a-bong-a-bong-a-bong Burbank
Gigga gigga, gigga gigga-Glendale
Bing-a-bong-a-bong-a-bong Burbank
Gigga gigga, gigga

He's a sexist with a sad song, yeah
Shopping cart! Escalator!
Beverly Hills adjacent is
A neighborhood where I raise my kids
Aeroplane to LAX
Then I met up with lady sex
I drink an Alabama slammer with your sexy-ass grandma
The Hulk turns green when the rays get gamma
I'm in trouble with your grandma
Cuz I ain't a-bother yamma
If you want Frasier, you gotta get Grammer
She jammed my butt with a big stick
And then proceeded to be sucking my dick
She jammed my butt with a big stick
And then proceeded to be sucking my dick
Tell me love what the Pepper man said
Tell me love what the Pepper man said
Tell me love what the Pepper man said
Tell me love what the Pepper man said
The Target there is much better than
The Target of Hollywood
Shopping cart escalator!

I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up it brought up the past
Once you know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside
Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on
He's remembering Hillel Slovak here. The rest of the song is about struggling with the temptation of heroin.
>>64824035
Purely a singles band. Their B-sides are just there to pad out the album.
>>64825447
I disagree, they've got a lot of great non-single songs
>>64825447
>>64825475
Purple Stain (OP song) is pretty decent although I agree that on Californication they used up all their good melodies on the singles.
BSSM is the only good RHCP album anyway; everything after that is boring Top 40 while everything before that is mediocre funk jam shit.
Yertle the turtle is the one good one. If you want me to stay. And hillel live solos. For the rest, you can shoot zemm nowh.
>>64825447
Absolutely pleb tier opinion from someone who's never taken the time to explore their discography. Not only do their non-single tracks often times lend to more experimentation, some of their best songs are B-Sides that never even made it onto their albums. They have good singles, but they've been just a singles band.
>>64826508
*they've never been
>>64825518
Yeah I just listened to that and kind of a nice changer from the singles, because I've honestly heard Scar Tissue and the title track so many times that I'm burned out on them.
>>64824993
it was in all caps and i ended up reading that in mc ride's voice
>>64826139
>And hillel live solos
Too bad there's not a lot of live footage of them from the Hillel era.

Man, they were a lot like the Stooges in the early days. Anthony even copied Iggy's appearance.
>>64824947
I agree. /mu/ just doesn't like RHCP because they get played on the radio.
Was Road Trippin' the first time they did an acoustic number? I thought it was. Not bad song and John's guitar is very pretty even if it's basically Me And My Friends 2.0.
