"Recycled" lyrics

Post by Lisacooper91 » Sat Feb 26, 2011 6:40 pm

Alice seems to "recycle" some lyrics. It doesn't really bother me, it's just something I noticed recently and I find it pretty amusing.

Some examples:
"You're just a shadow of yourself!"
(Bad Place Alone + Shadow of Yourself)

"Crying in my beer"
(Escape + Alma Mater)

"Pushed too far / You push too far / You push me too far"
(Take it Like a Woman + Step on You + It's the Little Things)

There must be more :grin: so feel free to add some more "recycled" lyrics!

Has anyone ever noticed Alice likes to mention or make reference to tattoos?

From memory"Its the little things" recycles lyrics/song titles e.g. welcome to my nightmare..no more Mr Nice Guy...and for Kevin I think thers a refernce to soemthing like " a tear drop tattoo'd "eye or face on one of the TLT tracks..you'll have to listen to whole album now..which is good IMO...

"I got a gangland name and a teardrop tattooed eye"......from Bad Place Alone.

Many more as well if you listen to the albums.

Good thread. Give the brain cells a work out.

I liked on "Gimme", when Alice says "I really hate to repeat myself but nothing's free!" Like a continuation from the song "Nothing's Free".

There's of course in "Cold Ethyl", the mention of "Refrigerator Heaven".

"Mr. And Misdemeanor" has a couple, "Here's new pretties for you" and the next line, "Nobody likes me but we adore you"

"I gotta get outta here" at the end of "Escape".

"When you're a jet, you're a jet all the way from your first cigarette to your last dyin' day", "Still No Air" & "Gutter Cat Vs. The Jets"

"Sick Things" mentions "My Stars".

There's lots!

Of course, that was deliberate. I'm not sure a lot of the other examples were.

Also "I wanna get out of here" in Alma Mater!

Perhaps Alice would like to get some tattoos but is prevented from doing so by his well known fear of needles.

He had a henna tattoo (on the spur of the moment) for a short time, but that was as part of his costume.

Yeah I've heard him say his fear of needles is the reason he has no tattoos

I sort of found another one :)

"And when I found it all the bells would just ring
The sun would shine and all the birds would sing"

The Congregation:
"Where bluebirds sing and church bells ring"
