Christine Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 like a lover on the open shore what's the matter? Oh thanks for that! I have listened to this bit over and over and over and nothing was making any sense. I think we've got the rest of it, just need to clarify hating/hitting since it really changes the meaning.

Ruth Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Some of the lyrics to Blame It On The Girls were photographed in the Q Mag. We've pretty much got it spot on. He's got looks that books take pages to tell he's got a face to make you fall on your knees he's got money in the bank to thank and I guess you could think he's living at ease like a lover on the open shore what's the matter? when you're sitting there with so much more what's the matter? when you're wondering what the hell to be are you wishing you were ugly like me blame it on the girls who know what to do Then it stops there I'll have to give up the good book show then? It made no sense but it did sound like what he sang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdlp Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Oooh damn magazine people . I love the start of this song, I absolutely love it. Oh and the bit that he did when he came over to us . Dammit I can't wait to hear them all!!!!!!!!! Oh thanks for that! I have listened to this bit over and over and over and nothing was making any sense. I think we've got the rest of it, just need to clarify hating/hitting since it really changes the meaning. I know! It's quite annoying how they decide to stop showing the lyrics on the line of the word we were trying to figure out. thanks daneka!

hotdlp Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'll have to give up the good book show then? It made no sense but it did sound like what he sang When has it ever been easy to understand what he says/sings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 like a loveron the open shore what's the matter? when you're sitting there with so much more what's the matter? when you're wondering what the hell to be are you wishing you were ugly like me Thanks Danika! Notice, however, that this isn't even 100% accurate compared with what he sings live. I'm 90% sure I hear "like lovers of the open shore," not "a lover on." And he DEFINITELY sings "wondering what the hell to do," not "to be". DEAR MIKA: PLEASE PAY SOMEONE TO TRANSCRIBE THE LYRICS AS THEY'RE RECORDED IN THE CD INSERT FOR THIS ALBUM!!!

DEAR MIKA: PLEASE PAY SOMEONE TO TRANSCRIBE THE LYRICS AS THEY'RE RECORDED IN THE CD INSERT FOR THIS ALBUM!!! OUR SANITY DEPENDS ON IT!! Well I hope when he recorded it he sings "to be" since it rhymes with the previous line. I think he just mixed himself up because it's "to do" in the second verse.

MIKA forget the lyrics and make them up....No can't be true I kinda like it and is funny to see him have to think so fast shows he is human...and LIVE! not like some singers these days who mime ahem*BritneySpears*ahem xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAR MIKA: PLEASE PAY SOMEONE TO TRANSCRIBE THE LYRICS AS THEY'RE RECORDED IN THE CD INSERT FOR THIS ALBUM!!! OUR SANITY DEPENDS ON IT!! *cough* someone was obviously PAID to do that for the LICM piano book; becasue the music was all wrong and written in the wrong key becasue the lyrics were the complete opposite of the few published in LICM. seriously, there were so many confusing conversations over those messed-up lyrics.

iadoremika Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Always looking for an axe to grind -- what's the matter I've got the mp3 of this from the gig thread and, at first, I kept hearing, "Always looking for an ass to grab". I know what I initially heard was wrong, don't worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avoca Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 growing on me. someway. I tell ya, I had loved it from the new music video blog, where it was not featured the reprise. in fact that part is the one I despise. it brings so much down the whole song rhytm and quality of lyrics. o.c. it's purely personal pov. if he'd chosen another reprise, it'd been one of my fave new songs.

I agree, and Mika must not change nis lyrics, just because the company want him to! It's up to him what he writes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasia_xxx Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Just have this idea... If the company wants Mika change the lyrics, it means probablythat BIOTG is going to be a single. Otherwise they wouldn't be so picky (I hope). I hate that for a stupid marketing reason they want him to change one word which is not even the f... word:naughty: Mika is not a doll, he can write about things he wants to write about and in the way he pleases! It's HIS songs!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iadoremika Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 That is freaking hilarious!!! You should suggest it to Mika. I love that I took your advice and Tweeted Mika the lyric. That was 2 or 3 (of his) Tweets ago so...no luck. But I know deep down inside, in the bottom of my heart that it's a well thought out, meaningful and mind blowing lyric.
