Other Father Song Lyrics from Coraline the Movie

[wweevolutionfan101]

shes a peach: the other mom wants to eat her

shes a doll: the other mom made a doll

shes as cute in the button of the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on coraline: they want to put buttons on her eyes.

When she comes around exploring, Mom and I will never ever make it boring, our eyes will be on coraline: they spy on her boring life with the doll

[ariminna1]

"Making up a song about Coraline

She's a peach she's a doll she's a pall of mine

She's as cute as a button in the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline

When she comes around exploring

Mom and I will never ever make it boring

Our eyes will be on Coraline."

[southparkfan350]

I love this movie and thus song

[TheKsalad]

Other Dad wasn't even evil. ;_;

[JermzzzyFTW]

@TheKsalad I agree- I love how the Other Mother was ultimately the only true evil character. Everything else which exists in her world does so purely because she created them- he has no other purpose but to serve her but still cares for Coraline.

[MrFunnyvids2000]

In solviet russia, piano plays YOU

[BusyB0X]

Love the song!

[wander101101]

The book is a loooooot creepier. Trust me.

[YorkJonhson]

@wander101101 Recommend it?

[wander101101]

@YorkJonhson To be honest, I read it when I was in elementary school lol. It may not have been as good as I remember, but I do remember some of the illustrations being pretty disturbing, and the overall feel of the book seemed much more creepy than the movie.I suppose I should read it again before giving a solid recommendation, but I would still give it a try.

[ocelot44revolver]

They might be giants

[froggielover2727]

Read the book great book

[DragonsRule06]

If you think about it he's prettty much singing:

Get the hell out of here

Other mother wants you to stay

and sew buttons over your eyes!

[familyguyrofl]

@DragonsRule06 lol so true its kinda scary

[111Linnea111]

I love this song. <3

[Ryoukoholic]

I love this song.

[stayprettybaby]

He was trying to warn her. isn't that sad. :c

[thebdboy778]

@stayprettybaby ...he was?

[snow4wagns]

omg, watching this movie and then listening to this song again I get all the creepy references to Coraline being a doll, and she's cute as a BUTTON in the EYES on everyone who laid their EYES on Corlaline

[pandakone]

@snow4wagns yeah only just got that to :S and how "whens she's wondering around exploring mum and I will never make it boring" is about the tasks that happen later on :O this song is pretty much a warning lol

[FoodFreakk]

I have the biggest urge to name my future kitten Coraline and sing this song all the time.

[lokosdeplantao]

❤❤❤😄😄😃

love the song



[lokosdeplantao]

I'm reading the book!It's awesome

[southparkfan350]

@lokosdeplantao just so you know the books ALOT creepyer then the movie

[TheDugface]

They Might Be Giants did this! How did I not notice that?!

[Cocacola0ad0dick]

I love this song! :3 cute!

[Thehatguyable]

This song is as cute as a button

TEE HEE

[bubblelovers143]

[dragonuvkiller666]

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

I feel weird loving a song about a cartoon girl from a movie but it's catchy and the music is just great LOOOVE the piano

[MaxyneMakin]

i Love The movie but i dont think it is suit for a Kids movie.. like yea you have heard this before but i dont think it should be a kids movie.. because it can be abit scary..

[MaxyneMakin]

This piano plays me<3.

[vampiirepriinces16]

[jcraigr123]

i love this song, makes me happy. I've had it stuck in my head forever! And ii hope it stays there..... :-)

[lolfaceguy4000]

the other father was a good guy but the the other mother made him be evil

[mkcvette96]

Some extended lyrics

---------- Always happy for a visit from Coraline She's a welcome guest in our house when it's dinner time There really no denying that we'll feel the urge for cry'n if you leave us Coraline We're in love a girl named Coraline She a dear, she's a sweet, she's our Valentine We're as helpless as a baby in the presence of the lady by the name of Coraline -------------

[DrSamanthasaurus]

@mkcvette96 Whoa, that's awesome! Did you make that up or was it in the book?

[mkcvette96]

@DrSamanthasaurus Thanks so much, I made it up. I thought it would be cool to try because the tune is so addicting. Have a good one! :)

[VBVids012]

I Sing This Song Everyday With My Siss .... We Love This Song .

[Indiegirl007]

This song is so cool, and catchy and sweet.

And then you REALLY listen to the lyrics.

And it's not so sweet anymore. It's scary.

I'm gonna go find my mommy now.

[Bawadari]

I would have gone though all that scary crap just to be there when he played this song.

[Cheerbabeforeverable]

Making up a song about Coraline= um, no need to explain :)

She's a peach she's a doll she's a pal of mine= shes a DOLL, the spy doll...

She's as cute as a BUTTON in the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline= they have button eyes ('cute as a button in the eyes')

When she comes around exploring= goes to the other world

Mom and I will never ever make it boring= they make the other world paradise, to trap her, of course

Our eyes will be on coraline= they.want.her.eyes.

[theonewhowillprosper]

@Cheerbabeforeverable OH.MY.GOD. i never thought of it like that. thanks

[tadpole468]

this guys gotten like 10 more view from me today alone :P

[faethany]

I'm such a fan of 'They might be giants' and I flipped when I heard this!

[HavazikFerric]

@faethany I did too when watching this in theater! I mean the other father even looks like John!

[hpland12]

The buttons........

[TTNoble77]

How many of you guys think that coraline should be a Playable character in Alice: MR

[ThomasDeCosteTV]

This Piano playes me!!!!

[TheWarburner]

@ThomasDeCosteTV only in Soviet Russia.

[iseabbv]

Does the song remind anyone else of Death Cab For Cutie on Prozac?

[chanachelsea16]

whats the real name of the guy who sings this?

[HavazikFerric]

@chanachelsea16 John Linnell from They Might Be Giants.

[MrsBieber9191]

:0 i love dis movie its so gooddd

[skittles3888]

they should make a longer version of this song (:

[PalmeersX]

actually lovin this shizzle!

[BeyondbBirthday]

☻w☻Pssh my button face is happy!

[Epurope]

this song she be sooooooo much longer I think im going to extend and make my own version because this song is to great to be so short

[jet769]

Our eyes will be on Coraline- They want Coraline to sew the buttons in her eyes

[happycloe28]

Can anyone tell me if this song is on itunes??

Thanks,,

Chloe (:

[em0clair3]

@happycloe28 yeah it is just go to the coraline soundtrack album ;) it's only 30 seconds long tho..

[TwiggyHazuProduction]

Peach- the mom wants to eat her

doll- the doll was her

pal of mine- the other dad doesnt want to hurt her

cute as a BUTTON IN THE EYES- sew the buttons in eyes

never make it boring- false happiness and never want her to leave.

Soooooooo, the other dad said he didnt want to hurt her and said "mom is making me do it" then fell through the bridge

[Annalizzatoo]

@TwiggyHazuProduction The mom doesn't want to eat her, I'm pretty sure...

[TwiggyHazuProduction]

@Annalizzatoo yea she does

[Annalizzatoo]

@TwiggyHazuProduction o.e How??

[Asdrenzx]

@Annalizzatoo Had you seen the movei or read the book?, The other mother is a spider-like monster that feeds from the life of the kids she traps, doing so she is able to live forever then when they life of the child is over and only the spirit remains she seeks another one to keep her alive

[Annalizzatoo]

@Asdrenzx I've seen the movie like a couple years ago, I don't really remember that much from it. But thanks for clarifying it for me :D

[Blah3156]

This song should have been longer it's very catchy ^^

[WarriorLovar2]

She's a peach, she's a doll, she's a pal of mine! :D

[KelleyMcNocklar]

To the 13 who disliked this. YOU FAIL HARDER THAN ANYTHING EVER!!!!

[Starguitarplayer]

dang!now thats a voice! way better than any other singer!he rocks!

[JUSTICEGIRL2009]

@Starguitarplayer its they might be giants whos singing the song!

[HerosLegend1]

Thumbs up if this song get in your head.

[blueguy15]

this song is addictive :3

[southparkfan350]

@blueguy15 yes it is

[Capricorn665]

@TheLoveNotWar1000 Either that, or the cats in the real world are just magical...I dunno, cats are really mysterious animals, so...*shrug*

[dtjank1]

this is the creepiest movie EVER its epic (lol) how they give a clue in this song they say shes as cute as a BUTTON u know how the mom wants to make her eyes buttons best movie ever lol

[SpringytheVine]

@dtjank1 AND he says she's a doll which is a hint that they knew about the doll...

[dtjank1]

@SpringytheVine someone comented on a vid of this song it might of been this one that the dad tries to help coraline ijust watched the movie and that comment is right!

[Capricorn665]

@TheLoveNotWar1000 The cat was trying to warn her about the Other Mother's hand (Because, you know, the thing about not being able to talk in the real world) and how it was trying to take her back, both for the key and herself. So technically, the cat's good too. :)

[Kaity2702]

No the dad is not evil, when he is on the bug thingy almost killing Coraline you'll look closely and notice his hands are stuck in the gloves. Then he rips his hand out of the glove and uses his free hand to give her the eye tht she needed to find, then he dies. HES GOOD

[missezmi]

This song is why i am naming my baby Coraline

[LivinLifeSmileyFace]

The movie is just meant to be trippy and creepy. Coraline is an amazing movie but may be confusing at some points. Altogether it's AMAZING!

[newmoon1265]

@TheLoveNotWar1000 YESSSSSS!!!! ITS SOOOO WEIRD RITE????

[Mr19free]

What i dont understand... The other mother created everything of the second world,so she created the other father and wybie too...means that they are like puppets of the mother to betray coraline....but in the opposite the other wybie and father are helping coraline....wheres the sence ? the other mother gaved them a free will ? highly unlikely

[filipinoninja8]

@Mr19free read the book

[naughtygirl176]

@Mr19free they might have conchiouses (dont know how to spell it)

[Asdrenzx]

@Mr19free You have the right point, the beldam maded the other father and wybei to feel care for Coraline and they also had a will of their own, but they were still weaker than the beldam so they followed her orders by fear and also if she were to die they lives would also end, but in the very end they just decided not to let to keep trapping childs and taking thier lifes by helping Coraline to escape

[RayKArran]

Hi everyone.. I would like to point out /\ In the lyrics, I think even the creator noticed this. "Our Eyes Will Be On Coraline" They are buttons... I think you get it :)

[vanevogue]

i LOOOOOOOOOVE this movie =D

[Andrez702]

13 people obviously need to have their Lives Restarted so they can learn what a good piece of work is.

[SpiderWick12]

Nice song... but there is a subliminal message in the song... Notice the phrases:

-"Mom and I will never ever make it boring." and

-"Our eyes will be on Coraline"

Notice anything alittle strange about those two lines?

[NorwegianPotato]

@SpiderWick12 Yeah, and also "She's as cute as a button in the eyes of everyone..." :P

[Finalfantasyfreakout]

The other father in the movie was really creepy, but he didn't want to kill Coraline near the end, he was forced to do it! Hence, the reason he was apologizing the whole time he was assaulting her on the mantis! =(

[footballicehockey]

why must this be so catchy? i've watched it about 10000000 times..

[jrdennis95]

rapes the replay button..

[KittyKazooTV]

If I were Coraline, I would've said, "NO! If you want me to stay so badly and you want to make me happy, then FINE! You'll make me happy if you don't sew the buttons into my eyes, make yourself look less like an anerexic spider, and make a giant forest to explore! And stop being such a bitch to everyone!!!!"

:D

[matejmatejovski]

me wants the book SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad i hear it is creepy i likr creepy

[NiNiThinks]

iLove thiss sonq the movie is great they couldnt of made it any better

[BycattibOnDeck]

If I didn't have the image of that one scene where the piano hands were trying to keep him quiet, I wouldn't be so scared of this song ... it's a real nice song, but creepy in Coraline ...

this is better than justin bieber

[ZeroLevels]

@solaiman1234 - What the hell ISN'T better than Justin Beaver? -.-"

[SkellingtonSisters]

The Piano realized the Other Father's warning to Coraline, made 13 accounts, and disliked this video.

[bobbymatienzo]

I LOVEW THIS SONG..

[nataliacruzmolina]

this is a warning for coraline!

She's as cute as a BUTTON

the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline

OUR EYES WILL BE ON CORALINE the doll is spying on her!

[zzistotallylovinit]

@nataliacruzmolina dude... everyone that's wtched any of these vids should know that by now... let 'em figure it out on their own.

[SkellingtonSisters]

Did anyone else notice that this entire song was foreshadowing the Other Mother's plans? "She's as cute as a BUTTON IN THE EYES of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline." and other parts too. "our eyes will be ON coraline." really makes me think. now that i've already seen the ending, i see how fitting it is.

[TaigaToraDora]

I'm not the only one that loves this song? xD I rewinded the movie like, 5 times when I watched this part xD

[ThatJakeGuy1]

Everything in the other world tried to warn her:

1: the song lyrics

2: other wyborne (so the other mother made him dumb)

3: the mice of mr. B's tell her to not go in the little door (he passes her the message)

4: the cat constantly protects her.

This movie questions an individual's existence. After saying his name correctly, she calls wyborne "why-were-you-born?". This is a subtle yet clear spelling out of this movie's subtext.

[Karin1282]

My dad freaked when he heard this song. He was like, "SARA! DO YOU KNOW WHO SINGS THIS SONG!!!????" "no...." "REMEMBER THAT BIRD CAGE SONG! ITS THEM!" I forgot the name of the band, but he loved the band and was happy to hear them in the movie.

[Swirlman1]

@Karin1282 the name of the Band is They Might be Giants

[Karin1282]

@Swirlman1 yeah, I remembered after the comment but I was too lazy to type it. XD

[kello123451]

[6blanks]

2 hidden messages, both warning Coraline not to come or bad things will happen.

1. "our eyes will be on coraline..." the other parents have button eyes and they want coraline to too.

2.She as cute as a BUTTON in the EYES of anyone that's every LAID THEIR EYES ON CORALINE..."

[bfmvboy]

[alison249]

[piratelove38]

@alison249 yes. and it gets creepier every time i see it. you should see the french version....something about it in french makes it even creepier.

[Indiegirl007]

@piratelove38 Now that I've heard it for the 4th time.......I see what you mean. It IS creepy. How did she NOT catch that! *shivers*

[DarkAnalasis]

[woee3]

He says "Buttons in the eyes" When he said that, he ment if Corline didn't excape, her 'Other mother' will force her to put the button eyes in.

[wizardbaker]

This song is actually pretty dark.

Making up a song about Coraline

She's a peach she's a doll she's a pall of mine (making a bond)

She's as cute as a "BUTTON IN THE EYES" of everyone who ever layed their eyes on cooraline.

When she comes around exploring (when she comes)

I will never ever make it boring (needs to entertain her so she will stay)

Our EYES will be on Coroline

[SHADOWRUNxKING]

@wizardbaker you messes up the lyrics a little...

[wizardbaker]

@SHADOWRUNxKING

oops

well the idea is still the same

[SHADOWRUNxKING]

@wizardbaker yeah lol :)

[9719hais]

Her other father was weird in the "nightmare" world. Talked like a retarded goblin from a childish cartoon.

[Asdrenzx]

@9719hais Since the life force of the beldam was getting weaker they were starting to die also

[iloveshaneXD]

making up a song about coraline

shes a peach shes a doll shes a pal of mine

shes as cute as a botton in the eyes of everyone who ever laid their eyes on coraline

when she come around exploring mom and i would never make it boring

our eyes will be on coraline :)

[genralr12]

I wish this song was longer

[AgentDemonEyes]

I love how you (CoopertheCorgi) caps lock'd "Button". XD

[IwuzLeft4Dead]

i love how Wybie and the dad actually CARED and tried to warn her. i felt really sad when the other dad died...='<

[TheMovieFan1000]

@IwuzLeft4Dead When he was on the catapillar did he try to hurt her?

[IwuzLeft4Dead]

@TheMovieFan1000 he wasnt. he was against it but since he is a creation of the other mother he was forced to since she made him and has almost total control

[Asdrenzx]

@TheMovieFan1000 Did you not saw how the mecha-caterpillar had the piano hands that wre forcing him to move it to hurt Caroline?

[kssykssygg]

John Linnell has the sexiest voice. Love this song, it's so catchy!
