| | Phantom Limb Lyrics Artist(Band):The Shins
White girls of the North, File past one, five and one They are the fabled lambs, Of Sunday ham, The EHS norm. And they could float above the grass, In circles if they tried, A latent power I know they hide, To keep some hope alive, That a girl like I could ever try, Could ever try. So we just skirt the hallway sides, A phantom and a fly, Follow the lines and wonder why There's no connection. And week of rolling eyes, And cheap shots from the trite, And we're off to Nemarca’s porch again, Another afternoon with the goat head tunes, And pilfered booze. We wandered through her mama's house, And milk from the window lights Family portrait circa ninety-five, This is that foreign land, With the sprayed on tans, And it all feels fine, Be it silk or slime, So, when they tap our Monday heads, To zombie-walk in our stead, This town seems hardly worth our time, And we'll no longer memorize or rhyme, Too far along in our climb, Stepping over what now towers to the sky, With no connection. Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo So, when they tap our Sunday heads, To zombie-walk in our stead, This town seems hardly worth our time, And we'll no longer memorize or rhyme, Too far along in our crime, Stepping over what now towers to the sky, With no connection. Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo Oooh waooooooo waooooooo (repeat to fade) If you find some error in Phantom Limb Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You. Review about Phantom Limb :D | Reviewer: Just Lynn | 8/21/09 This song is amazing! I love when lyrics are written so that you actually have to THINK about the point of the song. There are a lot of meanings to the lyrics once you look at them through different lenses. and it's really great to sing along with. i just all-around LOVE it! stop fighting over the shins stealingf melodies from past bands | Reviewer: gabriel | 6/29/08 even if they take from other melodies, they mold it and shape it into their own style.isntn that what we all do?with all these clothes by designers and stuff we take things from different styles and make our own style.what i mean is music evovles through time to influence another generation.but it will still have some of the old styles of music.just sit back forget about the hard day and listen to this band which relaxes u in a unique and amazing way Amazing concept and chord changes | Reviewer: f | 3/1/08 It is one of the best songs. Beach Boys harmonies, Bob Dylan mysterical lyrics (requiring thought, oh my!), the F#m to Fm is an amazing change. And the clever title, gotta laugh about that. What a great combination of music theory, harmony, teen angst, and satire. What songs over the past 40 years have that combination? say what | Reviewer: amos hiller | 2/20/08 no one is stealing. great songs, with those ambiguous lyrics, and hooks that rattle around in your head for hours at a time have been around thru the ages. this is a cleverly crafted song that does not tire with repeated plays. and my 14 year old daughter loves it also. we both have very different music tastes. this song is for all ages uh. | Reviewer: S | 2/16/08 We are all entitled to our opinions, but i would have to agree and say that the Shins definitley are on higher level than past artists (cough cough). everything about this peice is enchanting. It's a song that sticks with you. It's perfect. Song Meaning | Reviewer: Calvin | 11/19/07 This song is about a girl in High School who is an outsider and wants to be part of the "cool" group. She follows the cool girls to malls and house and no matter what the cool girls do or say to her, it feels good to be part of the group no matter the cost. Beautifully written, amazing song. Jimbo | Reviewer: Jimbo | 10/24/07 I'm 50 and going with my daughter to see the Shins tonight. This song evokes memories of sixties pop. She has the "hook" as her ringtone which brought me to this song and the group. Caught my attention | Reviewer: George | 6/29/07 Loved the throwback melody work.....pleasant and yet invoking nice highs. The lyrics are about triumphing for me...not being held down by the gods of our fathers. No connection indeed. Thanks! What are you on, Rich? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/14/07 This song is supposed to be about a theoretical young lesbian couple in a crappy town. I think Rich is pulling our leg. This is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard. If you see their album "Wincing the Night Away" purchase it; it will not be a regretable purchase. Maybe I'll make a fan-video for this song... :] | Reviewer: unknown | 6/10/07 you know, the shins are really great. just sit back, & relax while you listen to them singing while you do your homework. i love them alot.. :DD Review By Pages: 1 2 3 Review the song Phantom Limb The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
