Beck - Little One Lyrics






Go to sleep
We're so tired now
Altogether in a snake pit of souls
New days
To throw your chains away
To try to hang your hopes on the wind

Little one
Just a little way
Today all we need is waiting

Night rise
Like the evening prize
In a turnstile backwards we fly
Cold bones
Tied together by
Black ropes we pulled from a swing

Little one
Just a little way
Today all of the dreams are waking

Can't stand on crooked legs
I'm cross-eyed to the wall
In these harbor lights
Satellites explode

Drown, drown
Sailors run aground
In a seachange nothing is safe
Strange waves
Push us every way
In a stolen boat we'll float away

Little one
Hold on
All of the dreams are wasting

    Que importa la verdad cuando se es buena gente.

    Ser como ser

  2. S.... ....

    Es genial. Es correcto es disímil, es voluntad es correcto. Ante corrector que nos Ama.

  3. g.... s....

    God bless you Beck

  4. L.... F....

    Sea good

  5. S.... ....

    I wish I had more alcohol.

  6. f.... ....

    this song always stuck out to me as incredible

  7. E.... ....

    This is Beck's best song ever. If I lived to be a thousand years old, I would never tire of this. The melody, the harmonies, the lyrics. Raiding a playground for rope to steal a boat with and make our getaway.

  8. A.... R....

    A beautiful song. I really love Beck's music. One thing I've always loved are his unusual backing vocals - very atmospheric and always perfectly judged.

  9. R.... G....

    I love this song. Great album. Beck is an exceptional talent.

  10. K.... d....

    Why don't they have a beck video of this song little ones. They have a crapy churchy sounding video of the lyrics. But it sucks. I just wanna know the frick'n lyrics without churchy sounding b.s!!!

  11. D.... R....

    This is easy. Great album. Bush. This song has a Bush influence.

    Break it down completely.

    Beatles. And a dozen other great bands.

    Beck is AWESOME!

    He's not ripping anyone off. He's just flowing forward.

    D.... R....

    Bush? Are you fucking serious?

  12. Z.... S....

    People need to get off of the Nirvana comparison. Pay a lot more attention and you will find out that Cobain is dead, and Beck sounds like he wants to be dead. Big difference. Don't do drugs, kiddos.

    Z.... S....

    Buddy Weiser u should do drugs..maybe help you deal with that hideous face....chump

    Z.... S....

    Whoa, I'll bet you're a riot at parties. Beck was deeply depressed when he wrote the album, as he was going through a painful separation from his fiancée. And fuck you about what people choose to do with their bodies.

    Z.... S....

    @Miike Conville real adult of you. stay off the govt drugs

    Z.... S....

    Oh the irony of someone who goes by Buddy Weiser and says "Don't do drugs"

    Z.... S....

    Beck does not sound like he wants to be dead lol

  13. S.... P....

    I have come across the Sea Change Album and it is brilliant. It does have a Nirvana-ish feel about it which I really like.

    S.... P....

    +Slush Puppy It is a very good album. Some of the songs are very touching to me. I love the backgrounds. Nirvana-ish, no way. This is not what Nirvana was about. btw... stop doing heroin. It only benefits Scott Weiland's wife and Courtney Love. I think those bitches control the market.

    S.... P....

    @Buddy Weiser There are slight tinges of nirvana most definitely, but they are tinges. I studied Composition of music and I can hear very small nods to them, but its not obvious, they are subtle. I didn't say Nirvana were about Beck? Wtf are you talking about? I think you're the one on heroin.  

  14. G.... G....

    Great song

  15. M.... D....

    Really?! - No comments! Sea Change is my favorite Beck album, and this song seals the deal for me! Such great guitar patterns and chord changes! It has a Nirvana "Light" feel to it, but I wish I could hear Kurt Cobain tearing this shit up!

    M.... D....

    Outstanding album if not a little dark, depressing sounding. I understand this was deliberate on Beck's part as he had just been through a sad and jarring relationship break up. I need to be in a very good, positive state of mind to listen to this album as it's morose chords and featured minors tend to bring down.

    M.... D....

    Agreed sea change is my fav too, I’ve been reading some of these comments on each song from this album , and nobody knows what thier talking about. Just a bunch of flakes and posers . Beck is the man

    M.... D....

    Ever heard 'Ship in a bottle'?

    M.... D....

    It is truly Mellow Grunge.

    M.... D....

    Mark Darnell. 3 year late comment, but I agree. While I still love his other albums like Odelay, Guero, Midnite Vultures etc, his acoustic work is phenomenal and this album is probably my favourite beck album and on of my favourite acoustic albums. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who got Nirvana vibes from this track. Beck is truly a songwriting wizard.
