Sweetbreads
Andrew Bird
Artist: Andrew Bird Song: Sweetbreads Original tab by: keith meicher () "Well we’ve been doing this song all over the UK and we haven’t brought it to the mainland yet. But it’s very interesting. It deals with...It’s called Sweetbreads...it deals with the issues the numerous issues involved in consuming the vital organs of an animal. And everywhere we go we find out that ’sweetbreads’ means a different thing. I guess that’s why they call it ’variety meats’... But anyway... It’s a really awful song. Here we go:" when i was a little boy i threw away my action toys while i became obsessed with operation with hearts and minds and certain glands you learn to keep a steady hand and thus began a morbid fascination with sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads i could taste what you were thinking sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads thats the taste of neurons blinking do you wonder where the self resides is it in your head or between your sides and whos gonna decide its true location cause its a question for the centuries from communion to mad cow disease but is it worthy of a song or lifes vocation and the sweetest sweetbread of them all Emb6 within in a kingdom of afar called them thoughts and metaphor-inations Adim7 they called them sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads i could taste what you were thinking sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads thats the taste of neurons blinking does the thought of biles red and black the thought of tounges that taste you back fill you with a noisey oscillation where a simple trip to the grocery store can fill you with an object horror can you taste the misery of those crustations and the sweetest sweetbread of them all Emb6 within in a kingdom of afar should’ve caused some silent machinations Adim7 they call them sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads i could taste what you were thinking sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetbreads thats the taste of neurons blinking aw I could taste what you were thinking oh give me your thoughts about sweetbread
