SONIC YOUTH live WASHING MACHINE

[Kim]
yeah, I take my baby down to the street and I buy him a soda-pop
he's so sweet

alright now, alright now, alright now
you said that

if you want I'll be the one
take you out and have some fun
I never never ever ever tell no one
till the end, till the morning comes

yeah, I take my baby down to the corner and
I buy him a soda-pop
hmm hmm

alright now, alright now, alright now

if you want I'll be the one
take you out and have some fun
flip a quarter for the toss
I'd like mine with apple-sauce

yeah, I take my baby down to the corner and
I buy him a soda-pop
`cause he's so neat, sweet

alright now, alright now, alright now
okay now

if you want I'll be the one
shake my legs and have some fun
my hearts spinnin' round like a washing machine
never saw the devil look so damn clean

yeah, I take my baby down to the corner and
I buy him a soda-pop
and he said: "honey, you look so fine"
and I said: okay, alright, okay, alright

I was walking up Lafayette street
it's real empty
and I looked out and it turned into a big field
and I looked up in the sky
and I looked up in the clouds
and I saw this face looking down at me
and it's a women's face
and she threw a quarter down at me and she said:
"honey, here's a quarter go put it in the washing machine"
and then I looked up at her,
I looked up

sonic youth needs more attention than they get

[rouckz]

Definitly the best song ever by Sonic Youth for me.

And despite the bad sound quality of the video it always makes me shiver and brings me tears when at 2'30 when they start making those sonic bell noises with their guitars. SO SONIC YOUTH. I could write a book about those "bells"

[UNITEDSPACEFLAG]

best ever !!

[goodtwitch]

infinitely good

[GuitarCoverForMyself]

probaly the best indie band

[muzik4machines]

when was this? i figure before the gear was stolen as i seem to have seen lee's mega phaser

i remember when they played this at lollapallloza in 95 before the album was out, it was epic

@franciscoparaujo Couldn't said it better friend

[groovey65]

@TheToastBrothers well I would agree but back then there were tons of bands making this kind of music if they started up now yes that would probably be the case and the would probably never get signed.
