Here is another installment of
my blog feature "Stoopid lyrics" where I share with you a
well-known song with lyrics that don't make sense.
Keep
in mind this doesn't mean the song is stoopid or that I don't like the
song. In fact, most of the time I like the songs and only discover they contain stoopid lyrics when I try to sing along. But in all cases, the
lyrics make absolutely no sense.
performed by Sixpence None the Richer
Kiss me out of the bearded barley,Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You'll wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift you open hand
Strike up the band, and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling,
So kiss me
Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me, upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift you open hand
Strike up the band, and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling,
So kiss me
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift you open hand
Strike up the band, and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling,
So kiss me
So kiss me
So kiss me

I never actually thought that I heard the lyrics correctly but seeing them in print they make complete sense. Two lovers in the country fields kissing and being close. If this was an American band the bearded barely might be amber waves of grain and the dance would be a county fair or square dance.
It's very romantic.
good you have you blogging again!
