I'm thinkin' what to do is offer my help,
I should've looked again there for somebody else

Feel like I done way more than wrong
Feelin like I'm living inside of this song
Feelin like I'm just too tired to care
Feelin like I done more than my share
Could it be the weight that I've carried on
Like a broken record for so long

Damn good effort there, but I just adjusted that part slightly lol. Once again, damn fine stuff. Damn fine song. All about Slash if you ask me.

I always thought it was about his ex-band members as well....not so much about Stephanie

after the solo, they just burst the hell out of your speakers, so powerfull.

the rest of the songs needs to have that energy, just raw anger.


man these concerts are just gonna be inhuman !

I still cant figure out that one line
but i fixed the other errors


IRS

Oh oh
Is it true?
What they say of you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call up the Private Eye
Gonna get the IRS
Gonna need the FBI

There?s not anymore that I can do
All the reasons that you gave
I'd follow you
To when you plead and if that?d be the end of time, its true

Wouldn?t be the first time I've been wrong
Wouldn't be the last I should have known
All the rumors I can tell,
Some things didn't work so well

Well anyway, it feels the same

When you first told me you were gone
So long ago, but I've been here long
To all the motions Huh
That's the truth and here's the worst yet
Wouldn't even matter the things I say
You made your mind up and gone anyway
There's no use now in dragging it on
Could've seen it coming all along

Well it?s true...ooh...I had
My doubts with you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call myself a Private Eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make this a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face (??)
Read a minute with your morning news
With a cheap hangover, and the headlines true now

[Finck Solo]

I feel your doing this all for my health
I should've looked again then at somebody else
Feel like I done way more than wrong
Feelin like I'm livin inside this song
Feelin like I'm just too tired to care
Feelin like I done more than my share
Could it be the weight that I've carried on
Like a broken record for so long

And I do
Ooh, oh.
I'm Gonna call the President,
I'm gonna call a private eye
Gonna get the IRS,
Gonna need myself the FBI

Ooh, what shall I do
If I gave my heart to you
It's such a crime you know it?s true

[Bucket solo]

Gonna call the president
Gonna get myself a private eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make it a federal case
Gonna wave it right down in your face(??)
Read a minute with your morning news
With a cheap hangover, and the headlines true

There's not anymore that I can do

Umm, you guys still have the 'plead' line wrong.

Its 'when you plead the fifth and in the end the charge is true'

No its not. Its When you plead and if that be the end of time its true. Listen to one of the live versions.
Plus I heard the other version over razz radio and its clearly when you plead and if that be the end of time its true.

All i know is that IRS kicks much more ass with that new solo from the live performance.  To me the song was very boring and sustained this boringness too long, but the new solo breaks it up and I really dig it.

I think IRS would sound absolutely GIANT if they made a hard-Rock version with a speed-up tempo and a louder guitar riff. I want them to play it hard.

really getting into IRS now, hmm my guess is its about Stephanie.
the song is really appropiate to me at the mo, i keep hearing all these rumors about the girl i really like. "ooh is it true what they say about you.." etc

It really expresses my paranoia very well.

My guess is the song is about Slash and him suing Axl

A true fan - no, not that 'truefan' (where is he?)


« Reply #575 on: May 22, 2006, 07:25:12 PM »

In regards to that lyric about "when you plead"

I was like, literally, about 5 feet away from Axl when he sang it - I read the dude's lips.  "So when you plead the fifth and in the end the charge is true" - In addition, the lyric you're filling in there doesn't even make much sense, contextually.

Not trying to argue or anything - just sharing my observations.

Slight modification.  It could also be "so when you plead the fifth, babe, and in the end the charge is true.  (or possibly 'charges true' could fit there as well)

The thing is, the word 'babe' does sound like its in there - but the way that line is sung is just.. weird.  Love the f'n song, though.

Ok, here's my take on the lyrics, tell me what you think..


Oh oh
Is it true?
What they say of you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call up the Private Eye
Gonna get the IRS
Gonna need the FBI

There?s not anymore that I can do
All the reasons that you gave
I'll follow you
So when you plead the fifth and in the end the charge is true.

Wouldn?t be the first time I've been wrong
Wouldn't be the last I should have known
All the rumors I can tell,
Some things didn't work so well

Well anyway, it feels the same

When you first told me you were gone
So long ago, but I still held on.
Through all the bullshit that I've had to take
I've found the truth and heard the worst yet
Wouldn't even matter the things I say
You made your mind up and gone on your way
There's no use now in dragging it on
Should've seen it coming all along

Well it?s true...ooh...I asked
My god it was you

Gonna call the President
Gonna call myself a Private Eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make this a federal case
Gonna win and take it out on your face
Read a minute with your morning news
With a sweet hangover, and the headlines true now

[Solo]

I bet you think I'm doing this all for my health
I'd set it up again dressed as somebody else
Feel like I've done way more than wrong
Feelin like I'm livin inside this song
Feelin like I'm just too tired to kill
Feelin like I just walked in my shit
Could've been waitin' out here alone
Like a broken record for so long

And I do
Ooh, oh.
I'm Gonna call the President,
I'm gonna call a Private Eye
Gonna get the IRS.
Gonna need myself the FBI

Ooh, what shall I do
If I gave my heart to you
It'sa crime you know it?s trueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[solo]

Gonna call the president
Gonna get myself a private eye
Gonna need the IRS
Gonna get the FBI

Gonna make it a federal case
Gonna win and take it out on your face
Read a minute with your morning news
With a sweet hangover, and the headlines true

There's not anymore that I can do
