Two-Headed Boy Lyrics
Artist(Band):Neutral Milk Hotel
Review The Song (16)Print the Lyrics
Two-headed boy
All floating in glass
The sun it has passed
Now it's blacker than black
I can hear as you tap on your jar
I am listening to hear where you are
I am listening to hear where you are

Two-headed boy
Put on Sunday shoes
And dance round the room to accordion keys
With the needle that sings in your heart
Catching signals that sound in the dark
Catching signals that sound in the dark
We will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their clouds

Two-headed boy
With pulleys and weights
Creating a radio played just for two
In the parlor with a moon across her face
And through the music he sweetly displays
Silver speakers that sparkle all day
Made for his lover who's floating and choking with her hands across her face
And in the dark we will take off our clothes
And they'll be placing fingers through the notches in your spine
And when all is breaking everything that you could keep inside
Now your eyes ain't moving now
They just lay there in their clouds

Two-headed boy
There is no reason to grieve
The world that you need is wrapped in gold silver sleeves
Left beneath Christmas trees in the snow
And I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
Over your eyelids and all you did
Will wait until the point when you let go

Review about Two-Headed Boy

so | Reviewer: serk | 11/12/09

This song is about getting raped and getting jizzed on. Two Headed boy is referring to...another head.
It didnt come to me until this line "Watching spirals of white softly flow Over your eyelids and all you did"




I really like the song | Reviewer: Marina | 4/12/09

I think that the emotions with which the performer sings the song are important. And I think the one who wrote the song can often put the most emotions in it.
(sorry if my english is hard to understand, I'm not a native speaker, I just learn it at school)



^_^ | Reviewer: Matt Perron | 10/14/08

Oddly enough, I like the original better. I say oddly, because I heard the Dresden Dolls version first, and on top of that, I practically worship them. On another note, I don't think it is wrong to think a cover is better that the original version of a song, someone could be a great songwriter, but a terrible performer. I think that Michael Andrews and Gary Jules version of Mad World is better than the Tears For Fears original. (sorry, that is kind of a typical example)



OH come on... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/16/08

There is no need to dispute which song is better! The cover or the original! The dresden dolls have a way of expelling emotion in everything that they do, and obviously, Neutral Milk Hotel can write some amazing songs.
No need to argue,
Just enjoy gentlemen
(and ladies)

ONly one version | Reviewer: Mozzer1152 | 2/9/08

What makes this song so good is the raw emotion and longing that is in Jeff Mangums voice. Saying that a cover of a song is better than the original version is just a crazy idea since the hardest part of the song is writing it. Give one of the best bands of the last 25 years some credit. He is the man.



Yeah, I like the Dresden Dolls version better | Reviewer: Daniel | 1/27/08

Amanda Palmer's voice is gorgeous and really emotional, suiting the song perfectly. Jeff Mangum's one is rather harsh. Still, he's the guy who wrote the thing, can't say bad things about that.



dance round the room to accordion keys | Reviewer: two headed girl | 12/30/07

The NMH version of this song is definitely best.

The Mountain Goats are a wonderful band and have amazing music of their own. If you take their cover of this song for what it is (a cover) it's not bad. John Darnielle has an interesting voice in the same vein as Jeff Mangum.

NMH is singularly fantastic, however.



The real meaning. | Reviewer: Klaus | 12/9/07

This is about a twin who gets experimented on, and his other twin witnesses it and feels it. At the end when all the sick doctors are done and the twin is dead, the boy takes his dead twin outside to bury him in the snow. The angels come and greet him and take him in to heaven.



Mountain Goats | Reviewer: Dylan | 12/5/07

I've not heard the The Mountain Goats cover. But they're a great band, and I love them equal to Neutral Milk. And with the huge amount of writing that John Darnielle does, there's a LOT of Mountain Goats to check out. I've got three of his albums and saw him play live. Just him and the bass player. it was just... I don't know.. after the concert and for a couple days later I just kept thinking back on it and how funny his banter was. If you like Neutral Milk Hotel you probably should check out Mountain Goats. Lo-fi wonder.



I dont know | Reviewer: Huh | 11/10/07

Definitely Neutral Milk Hotel does this song best. I looked up the dresden dolls and they add absoultely nothing to the original song while the mountain goats seem like a terrible band in general. a good cover adds something to a song. take notes from the kooks cover of ace of base's all that she wants and metric's cover of dylan's dont think twice it's alright.

i'm sure there's nothing like hearing this song live, however, in any capacity. i love neutral milk hotel and if you think this song is moving, you must check out Oh Comely, perhaps one of the most tragic songs ever.
