This is the last track on TV on the Radio’s major release EP “Young Liars”. This is an a cappella version of the Pixies song “Mr. Grieves”, which was off of their 1989 album “Doolittle”. The obscure lyrics seem to approach the subject of death brought about by the human destruction of the environme...
[Chorus]
Hope everything is all right
Hope everything is all right
[Verse 1]
What's that floating in the water?
Ol' Neptuna's only daughter
I believe in Mr. Grieves
Pray for a man in the middle
One that talks like Doolittle
I believe in Mr. Grieves
[Bridge]
Do you have another opinion?
Do you have another opinion?
Do you have another opinion?
Do you have another opinion?
[Verse 2]
You can cry, you can mope
But can you swing from a good good rope?
Oh, I believe in Mr. Grieves
Oh, I believe in Mr. Grieves
[Chorus]
Hope everything is all right
Hope everything is all right
[Verse 3]
Got fallen, got frozen
Got finally up to the finally dozing
I believe in Mr. Grieves
I believe in Mr. Grieves
