The Blood Is Love
“I saw you, in a way
beyond figure out
these lines of life have been drawn & can’t be removed
our eyes is all it took to know
open up your eyes
deep blue, glassy take
& swim ‘til water & sky
now are one, out of two ”
The Blood Is Love, Lullabies to Paralyze, 2005

The Bronze
“I’ve been waiting I’m so lost out on the highway The more you’ve found The Bronze, Beaver EP, 1998
Waiting under things
That rise in the morning
I’ve been holding
Holding back so long
You can own it
Take it off my hands
Do me a favor
Nothin wasted
Just fingerfucked and
Busted up all at once
With no direction left to go
Everyday sit up and wonder
Where it was I started from
The less you’ve been around”

“You’re a head case with a smile
Can’t stop to make up your mind
Education is so lame (so lame)
When you bitch and you moan
You’re a loose girl, I’m a guy (hey)
You’re a truth freak with a lie
The situation is so strange
It’s a tv show
In a hotel on the phone
You’re gonna leave me, should have known
And I was thinkin, it’s so sad
I didn’t want you to go
Don’t wanna follow the laws of man
Bloody apron, leg of lamb
It’s so hard to win
When there’s so much to lose
chorus:
Infiltrate the walls that are caving in
It ain’t a bad thing
This ain’t reality
Infiltrate the walls that are caving in
It ain’t a bad thing
Because it is natural
Second Avenue, raising Cain
I’m a sinner, ring my bell (hey man)
I’ll tell you what, I get up
If I knew I fell”
Leg of Lamb, Rated R, 2000

“You’re so impossible It’s just another love song It’s never easy It’s just another love song I never told you it would last forever You’re just another love song Another Love Song, Songs for the Deaf, 2002
Scream and moan it chills my soul
Don’t wanna hear you got left behind
All those times you stayed up and cried
It’s no lie
You did it to yourself
Like chewed up gum under my shelf
Don’t look surprised
You must have know all along
Another love song
It’s not hard
When you’ve lost your mind
With you it’s sleezy
Don’t tell me your worries
I’m sick, I’ll leave you blind
Now the time has come
To leave this love that’s left you dry
No need to work this out now
Cause you know there’s no reason why
Another love song
You can’t hold this boy for long, dig it
By the time you read my letter
Baby, I’ll be gone
Another love song”

“I saw you, in a way
beyond figure out
these lines of life have been drawn & can’t be removed
our eyes is all it took to know
open up your eyes
deep blue, glassy take
& swim ‘til water & sky
now are one, out of two
oh, my bloodshot eyes
open up your mouth
touch your lips to mine
that we may make a kiss that can pierce through death & survive
your words have branded my mind
still i hold your hand
wrapped as if a ring
we of flesh & blood are only carrying
it’s so hard to
well, you know
the seed waits for the reaper to sew
every breath an art
the dignity to it can strain & break your heart
take all your pieces home
you ask when you’re alone, “what is love”
the blood is love”

“My generation’s for sale I’m high class I’m a Whore It’s truly a lie. I counterfeit myself High and mighty you say selling out is a shame. Is that the name of your book? You’re insulted You can’t be bought or sold. Never again will I repeat myself It used to be the plan was: SCREWING THE MAN It’s truly a lie, I counterfeit myself I’m Designer, Era Vulgaris, 2007
Beats a steady job.
How much have you got ?
My generation don’t trust no one
Its hard to blame
Not even ourselves
The thing that’s real for us is: Fortune and Fame
All the rest seems like work.
Its just like Diamonds
In shit
Actually both
Basically I’m a Pro
We’ve all got our own style
Of Baggage
Why hump it yourself?
You’ve made me an offer that I can refuse
Cos either way I get screwed
COUNTER PROPOSAL:
I go home & Jerk Off
It’s truly a lie. I counterfeit myself
You don’t own, you don’t own, you don’t own
You don’t own what none can buy
You don’t own
NEITHER DO I
Push a silver spoon in your ass. No more holding us down
dog. down mutt. Nice mutt
TRANSLATION: offer too low
You don’t know what you’re worth.
It isn’t much
My piano is for sale.
How many times must I sell myself before my pieces are gone ?
I’m one of a kind !!!
I’m designer!
Enough is never enough
Never again will I repeat myself
Now its HAVE SEX WITH A MAN (after he buys you dot-com for sale at a low, low price)
Its truly a lie, I counterfeit myself
You don’t own , you don’t own, you don’t own me
You don’t own what none can buy
You don’t own
NEITHER DO I”

“I thought I saw him on the video
A trance was keeping him under
I know that god is in the radio
Checking the station
The narcotic from me to you
Just a caught in the medium
I know you hear it, I do too
It’s everywhere that I go
You come back another day
And you do no wrong
Come back another day
And do no wrong
They say the devil is paranoid
Always trying to cover
But god was leaking through the stereo
Between the station to station
You believe it I know you do
You wont admit or say so
I know that god is in the radio
Just repeating the slogan
You come back another day
And you do no wrong
Come back another day
And do no wrong”
God Is In The Radio, Songs for the Deaf, 2002

“It’s the cruelest joke to play
I’m so high, I run in place
Only a line, we separate, so…
I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you’re gone
It’s all I’ve got when you’re in my head
And you’re in my head so I need it
You’re the only thing I’ve got
That I can’t seem to get enough
We collide for one embrace, so…
I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you’re gone
It’s all I’ve got when you’re in my head
And you’re in my head so I need it
I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you’re gone
It’s all I’ve got when you’re in my head
And you’re in my head so I need it
Hurry up and wait forever
Hurry up and wait for forever
I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you’re gone
It’s all I’ve got when you’re in my head
And you’re in my head so I need it
I keep on playing our favorite song
I turn it up while you’re gone
It’s all I’ve got when you’re in my head
And you’re in my head so I need it
I need it
I need it
I need it now”

“Me just happy robot
Live on hill of beans
You and I cut from same cloth
Rippin at the seams
Cut, snip, cut
Don’t forget to remember
The devil’s got pills in his eyes
Look, laugh, but don’t touch
Cut you down to size
Cut, up, cut (shut up)
Cut, up, cut
You Would Know
My girl’s all out of focus
I ain’t no big surprise
Daddy got his gun loaded
Got cross hairs in his eyes
Shut up, oh
Shut up, oh
You would know”
You Would Know, Self Titled, 1998

Some changes.
Well, we decided that from now on we will upload a video of the song with the lyrics in the description. It’s better, so you can listen to the song while reading the lyrics. I know there’s a lot of QOTSA songs that maybe not everyone has listened, and the objective of this blog is too show more people about the beautiful art of Queens of the Stone Age.
We are just doing our best to make it happen, so, you guys are welcome to criticize our work, or submit anything. And if you want to say something, just go to the ask box.
Sincerely,
Lyrics from the Stone Age moderators
