Seven Mary Three - Roderigo Lyrics






He's a real cannibal she goes: "I think I'll name him roderigo"
Dress him up in darker clothes, sell him away
Standing underneath her gun, "sit up straight or I'll hurt you"
You know he's not her only son, just the strongest

She tied him down to her tree
Stayed fit to name him what he's going to be
Tied him up with her rope, you know it stains her neck but it
Can't hold roderigo

"I'm the real animal," she goes, she wants to name me roderigo
Tie me down with all her ropes, until I can't breathe
She can't help but beat me down into a brand new roderigo
I'll slip away without a sound into the air

  38. S.... ....

    S.... ....

    @Shane40able i thought it was the second part to waters edge.. he gets them back for killing his girlfriend I'm probably wrong but thats what i thought :)

  39. N.... ....

    Possibly my favorite 7M3 song, but it's hard to pick.

  40. p.... d....

    Man this band is truly one of the greatest of my time. This song is a a testament to their greatness

    p.... d....

    How does greatness like this get passed over. An all the other bullshit get heard.SM3 one of the best American rock band ever

    p.... d....

    american standard is one of the best albums ever

  41. d.... m....

    one of the THE most under rated bands out of the grunge era....one of my very favorites too.

    d.... m....

    Totally agree

  42. S.... N....

    Woke up with this song in my head for some weird reason. Been a long time, man. Loved this cd, thanks for having this song on here...

    S.... N....

    Sherma Nater I know your comment is several years old, but I just woke up with this song randomly in my head this morning as well! Haven't listened to it in well over a decade, but I'm happily revisiting it right now :-)

  43. T.... N....

    They don't make music like this anymore...classic!

  44. p.... s....

    I'm glad to know I wasn't the only one who always loved this song. I still don't understand why it wasn't released as a single. I am kinda disappointed to know about the book meanibg, but it has a different more personal meaning to me.

  45. J.... F....

    I thought it was about a bull

  46. J.... F....

    I thought it was about a bull

  47. C.... S....

    Hell yes. Finally. I'm a younger dude (19), but I love 7mary3. Kids my age thinks it's gay.

    C.... S....

    Chris Stump at least they weren't pretentious and autotuned

    C.... S....

    Chris Stump It rocks. They can have that screaming emo junk. It's all been done before.

    C.... S....

    Chris Stump keep rocking it. The grunge rock era had many truly great musicians and vocalists.

    C.... S....

    That's because kid's your age listen to dumb fuckin music 😂😂

    C.... S....

    @x Farmer tell em theyre not gay yur gay lol

  48. L.... L....

    College students listening to 7M3, cranked up till the windows were vibrating, seeing how many people could dance on the coffee table at one time and driving the old lady upstairs crazy... those were great days. Thanks for the great memories 7M3!

  49. S.... L....

    I love MY MY.. :-)

  50. M.... B....

    This is one of my favorite songs from them. I saw them in Myrtle Beach one night and sang every word like an annoying ass drunk. I guess the lead singer noticed me, and at the end said to me, "Hey, man. You wanna know what that song's about?" I shouted, "Yeah!" He said, "It's about Roderigo, man."

    M.... B....

    Michael B haha niiice

  51. G.... M....

    Thank you for posting this. Even Chuck Norris would say "I can't hold Roderigo!"

  52. d.... ....

    great song, great album, great band !!

  53. m.... ....

    This entire album still gets to me! Every song has a story of life and i think it was a great album concept: the american standard. Sad that this song only has 15,000 views cause it deserves much more!

  65. D.... ....

    I've searched so many times for this song and never came across this video until today. Much better than live versions. AWESOME!
