Tell me why, tell me why

Is it hard to make
arrangements with yourself,
When you're old enough to repay
but young enough to sell?

Tell me why-y-y is it so?

Why did the sky break today?
Why did this happen today?

i once got a wrong # text message that said "tell me why a guy chooses not to open up to a girl". really wanted to mess with her but instead i was like "wah???"

― tehresa, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 14:30 (nineteen years ago)

yeah I thought this was gonna be a neil young thread

it's like a musical rorschach

― dmr, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

i used to have the 12inch of tell me why. wish i still did. still have smalltown boy 12inch though! that's some consolation.

― scott seward, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 14:38 (nineteen years ago)

And all these years I thought it was "old enough to repaint". Like, a person=house metaphor.

Another cherished illusion destroyed.

― Jon Lewis, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 14:52 (nineteen years ago)

I always thought it was "repaint" too

― sexyDancer, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 15:00 (nineteen years ago)

when you're old enough to reap it
but young enough to sow

― dmr, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 16:06 (nineteen years ago)

i always thought repaint too - it makes the same sense

― 69, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 20:51 (nineteen years ago)

i litmused neil young as well

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 20:52 (nineteen years ago)

rorschached

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 20:53 (nineteen years ago)

i refuse to believe you ALL thought it was repaint.

that's bananas.

― ian, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 20:53 (nineteen years ago)

ian OTM.

― Steve Shasta, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 20:58 (nineteen years ago)

House=person repaint/sell metaphor is now jointly (c)2007 everyone who misheard it that way. It's too good to waste.

― Jon Lewis, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:10 (nineteen years ago)

i knew it was repay
also it is so obv that he says sellllll, which goes with pay/buy!

― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:22 (nineteen years ago)

Yes but if he's a house, "sell" and "repaint" fit just fine!

― Jon Lewis, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

i also thought this might be about telling me why i don't like mondays

― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:23 (nineteen years ago)

i wanna shoot the whole day down

― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

And he can see no reason
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be show-oh-oh-oh-own?

― rrrobyn, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

I remember Boomtown Rats performing that on TV as the special musical guest on an ep of... Fridays maybe? And my mom commenting that they seemed "anti-establishment".

― Jon Lewis, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 21:29 (nineteen years ago)

techno trax vol 8 is actually a pretty dope comp

― El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 22:09 (nineteen years ago)

you indie fucker should stop posing about dance music at some point because it's pretty unbecoming

also ned raggett's englande is almost as good a track as the thread title

― El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

if i do say so myself

― El Tomboto, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 22:10 (nineteen years ago)

wait who's an indie what now?

― bell_labs, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 22:15 (nineteen years ago)

what does it mean to "repay" anyway?
sounds like a ripoff

― sexyDancer, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 22:19 (nineteen years ago)

tombot doesn't like guitars!

― Mr. Que, Wednesday, 11 July 2007 23:59 (nineteen years ago)

― m bison, Thursday, 12 July 2007 00:49 (nineteen years ago)
