Foo Fighters - This Is A Call Lyrics






Visiting is pretty
Visiting is good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a brother
This can be a secret
We can keep it good
Even all the ever wanting had a problem

This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all

Fingernails are pretty
Fingernails are good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a marking

Them balloons are pretty big
And say they should
Ever fall to ground
Call the magic marker

This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long

Minicyn is pretty
Minicyn is good
Seems that all the cysts and mollusks tend to barter

Ritalin is easy
Ritalin is good
Even all the ones that watered down the daughter

This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long

Fingernails are pretty
Fingernails are good
Seems that all they ever wanted was a marking

Them balloons are pretty big
And say they should
Ever fall to ground
Call the magic marker

This is a call to all my
Past resignations
This is a call to all
This is a call to all my
Past resignations
It's been too long

Foo Fighters This Is A Call Comments
  1. s.... ....

    This is their most Nirvania song.

  2. (.... ....

    i always thought that this song was a cover.. to my ears somehow it always had that feel...

  3. J.... T....

    Rockin'

  4. L.... B....

    Sounds like a Nirvana Song

  5. l.... g....

    Hello i am Brasil oh great song

  6. P.... M....

    VOX -> Dave Grohl, Guitar -> Dave Grohl, Base -> Dave Grohl, Drums -> Dave Grohl

  7. G.... O....

    AWESOME

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

    The instrumental version of this song played in this one flash Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons game I played as a kid!

  9. x.... ....

    Dave Gtohl took over from Nirvana. This album proves it.

  10. J.... Z....

    The best fucking sooooong!!!!!! Give me the hell yeaaah!!!!!!!!

  11. P.... R....

    😕💔

  12. R.... H....

    yeah so.... this came out when I was about to kick the world right in the efffen teeth, 24 years later, the world taught me who was boss. Lmao, youthful exuberance was spilling out of my ears as I walked down the street. These days I still feel that young (most days) but look much older, oh well. "this is a call to all my past resignations, it's been too long!"

    R.... H....

    Jeez you seem to be talking about me and my name is JW Hart Some days I still try to punch the sky but yeah not like I used to🤘🙏Good Vibrations to you Rick

  13. T.... O....

    Awful song

  14. F.... M....

    Dave is an absolute legend and this song is awesome however I feel like he just put a load of random words together to make this song! Was he high when he wrote this?! It lyrically has an I am the walrus vibe!

    F.... M....

    He made the entire album in 7 days all by himself, if that explains anything.

  15. M.... B....

    All the unintelligible lyrical nonsense ( unless it's all in - joke ) of Cobain. Admirable how DG picked himself up off the floor & did not look back until he recorded Echoes & Silence. Resilient.

  16. 2.... a....

    I wonder if this is actually Dave calling for band members

  17. J.... P....

    The song that started it all...

  18. M.... S....

    I just found out Dave performs every single part of this song. Wow

  19. t.... g....

    Heroin is pretty
    Heroin is good.. 
    Seems that all I ever did was pass out on your floor.
    On the seventh day Dave rested. "ANOTHER FRESH POT" was heard screaming from his den.
    92 people were not called.

  20. A.... H....

    THIS IS A CALL TO ALL MY, BEST FRIENDS IN ASIA
    The ending riff sounds a lil bit like radio friendly unit shifter

  21. c.... ....

    Actually,this is the Dave Grohl's debut album,once he had played all the instruments by himself!
    THIS IS A CALL TO ALL MY, BEST FRIENDS IN ASIA

  22. J.... M....

    The ending riff sounds a lil bit like radio friendly unit shifter
    To make a song like this, mere months after your friend dies in the way he did.

    That's talent.
    "Fingernails are pretty,
    Fingernails are good."

  23. m.... h....

    The Circle K TM Logo, an Information Warfare Arrest:
    As a graphic artist in NM, I have a particular gripe about logo design. One example in the Circle K gas/convenience station. So I'm making an information warfare arrest. NK. First off, I'm buying hot gas. The red logo says so. Will this has explode on me? This probably means the designers meant to buy the food inside. This means I expect good customer service. But there Is no phone, which I expect, and I'm surrounded by unfriendly people so I want to leave. Maybe, if they put cell phones for sale? There are no ce!l phones. Where is K on the alphabet and what does it mean? In the middle and okay. So you attract younger people. It looks boxed in. Does Circle K have less hold-ups? Maybe, but I'm terrified to go in there anyway. The gas is Shell TM gas which makes me think of fish so I notice how much the store stinks inside. I starting getting afraid I'm going to get boxed in and they're going to tell me they don't have what I need. Circle means mart. I see that, but they're selling quick gas. Solution: Change the name to Circle Save and make the logo have some wavy active lines in cool or even warm colors. This will make peope less afraid of exploding gas and getting trapped inside and more willing to come and go, or stay awhile and shop. Have phones available for sale and hire a security guard, may be more windows and white walls...

  33. I.... C....

    My teenage come back 😍😍😍😍

  34. K.... G....

    Who is better than the Foo Fighters?

  35. S.... C....

  38. s.... ....

  41. W.... S....

  69. b.... ....

    Whenever I interact with someone who has well-manicured nails, I will quietly hum this song to myself. So far no one has neither (A) called security nor (B) hummed along. What is WRONG with these people?!

  71. M.... C....

    Nirvana was a so-so Band, for real................Foo Fighters are Nirvana on Steroids and fucking blow away ANYTHING Nirvana put out..............Dave had these songs in the can before, during and after Nirvana.........'Nuff said..........

  72. J.... O....

    This is where it all started. :)

  73. A.... A....

    "Donald Trump is pretty
    Obama is good" hahaha

  74. N.... G....

    I want a few sexy female red-heads with bagpipes to do a cover of this song :P

  75. m.... d....

    this was THIER debut album Dave Grohl play and sang everything on this album

  76. r.... h....

    how did150 dislike. fukin trolz

  77. R.... L....

    One of the greatest Albums in the whole world.

  78. J.... H....

    Dave Grohl's a badass

    Recorded everything on this album on his own, within a week.

  79. d.... n....

    Im curious. Would
    have dave become a hit without kurt?

    d.... n....

    Absolutely. Kurt was only the fqce of the band because he was the lead singer.. Nirvana got big because if Dave, musical genius, dont @ me

    d.... n....

    KriSt lookS Like Andy KauFFmaN (in A RestauRanT yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah )👃👂

  80. A.... W....

    Still the rawest & best of the foo fighters tunes.Grohl is a genius.

  81. G.... ....

    132 people don’t like fingernails

  82. P.... H....

    Ritalin is good... :P Concerta is great ;)

    P.... H....

    If you like anxiety sure

  83. 0.... 1....

    this was Dave disowning Kurt....... and as he should have, the tool he is. Not that Kurt would have done better, he was just too fucked up

  84. K.... C....

    on my birthday

  85. 1.... a....

    Prefre early foofighters

  86. J.... H....

    When I listen to this album, all I can think is the Beatles.
    You can tell, you can hear they are a big influence for Dave.

    J.... H....

    what hahaha

    J.... H....

    Maybe you're right, i don't feel too much their influence in this album, but i do in Concrete and gold

    J.... H....

    Beach Boys at the beginning and I do hear Beatles... especially the end riff ;)

  87. m.... ....

    First song the Foo Fighters ever played together, yeah !!

  88. �.... ....

    sounds like beatles

  89. M.... D....

    Sounds very much like a live album.

  90. D.... H....

    Undisputed champs of the 90s. I know Dave Grohl got his start in Nirvana but Cobain gets all the credit. Fuck Cobain. Weak ass whacks himself and we are supposed to treat him like a God? Fuck him. The only right thing he did in life was point the shotgun in the right direction.

  91. C.... H....

    This is so epic. The beginning of the best band of the last 25 years.

  92. J.... N....

    This when everyone went.
    "That's Dave Grohl"
    "Nah get tae fuck"
    "It IS!"
    "Holy shit I love Dave Grohl"

  93. A.... S....

    Whenever I see this album cover, I look at that thing on the front of the trigger guard and wonder what it is. Safety? Magazine release? It just doesn't look like it should be there

  94. D.... T....

    most of these comments are fucking stupid, you people are fucking stupid.

  95. L.... W....

    all they ever wanted was a shower pololol

  96. L.... D....

    Oh, the year of 1996... To be young again... Dude, I am old!

    L.... D....

    LDM STUDIOS ahhh. .96 two years outta high school. ..still was in partying phase. .loved nirvana so of course was gonna back Daves new project. .bought the cd and am still listening to the music today. .Classic

    L.... D....

    L DM me too

    L.... D....

    Same here! Geezers of the World UNITE!!

    L.... D....

    No your not old, just refined. Saw Nirvana back in 91. Took my daughter to see the Foo Fighters in 2018. What a show!!!. I re-enlisted to be at Ft.Lewis just so I could be near Grunge!
