Lyrics:
a file?
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while
And children by the million sing for Alex Chilton when he comes 'round
They sing, "I'm in love, what's
YOU BELONG TO ME
Writers Pee Wee King, Chilton Price, Redd Stewart
See the pyramids along the Nile Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle Just
of Alex Chilton,
Of Victor Frankenstein
The girl you'll always love
The one you have no memory of
It's strange how Paige remains
She prays for rain
(Chilton)
Thank you, friends
Wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you
I'm so grateful
For all the things you helped me do
All the ladies and gentlemen
The day before I left New Orleans
My neighbor from down the street, Alex Chilton
Came to say goodbye
We talked about songs and how much joy they'd
(Alex Chilton)
Well I'm free again, to do what I wanna do
Free again, to sing my song again
Free again, to air my longing,
And to be out on my own
your bills off of that drama?
Smoke marijuana and get you some money
AL I got that shit tatted on my tummy
My manager drove 45 minutes down to Chilton
you've had a couple lemon chiltons and it's just enough
To get you high I'm yours tonight
Just slide into my room
While My hands are holding you
you the way that I feel
When she told me Alex Chilton was the greatest rock song ever written
I said "I'm in love with that song"
And so the casual sex
that Chilton, New Holstein, and KLC are wishing on me
She say "do you love me?", I tell her only partly
I only love Two Rivers, the Raiders, I'm not
impossible need
What about the doom?
For my part I was tripping hard
They sky had unraveled
And I could not contain my delight
Have you heard alex chilton ?
Another lonely night here at the bar again
Another beer, another shot, a double chilton
Put a couple dollars in that jukebox
So I can't hear all this
OxyContin, THC
Crack-cocaine and Ecstasy
I do
Can't compare to you
Alex Chilton, Kurt Cobain,
Biggie Smalls and Tom Verlaine, I do
Can't compare to you
Collingwood, Westerberg, Mould, Hart Chilton, and Bell
All of their work I know too well
My jealousy of them gets
Inside of my brain
Til my self-esteem drives
( written by Alex Chilton )
Driving in my big black car
Nothing can go wrong
I'm going and I don't know how far
So, so long
Maybe I'll sleep in
Mary Chilton never knew what the salty winds would do
When she stepped aboard and sailed away on a 1620
autumn day
At Plymouth Rock she was the first
