"Flood pensait que "Transformer" était en quelque sorte une innovation. Mais j’ai toujours aimé ce rythme crazy go-go. Enregistrée à Sydney en Australie, et à Chicago, cette chanson a environ neuf guitares rythmiques, toutes jouant les trois mêmes notes. Aussi, la plupart des pistes ont été samplées et détruites par la suite."
"Flood thought that "Transformer" was almost like a novelty song. But I always like that crazy-go-go beat. Recorded in Sydney, Australia, and Chicago, this song has about nine rhythm guitars, all playing the same three notes. Also, many of the guitars were sampled out and destroyed going back in."

Paroles / Lyrics


a livewire moves slow
a transformer always knows
the score is four
leaves you hanging on the floor
for more and less and more of the blame

and she's tired and she's sick of the same old shit
it's just more of the same old same
i know she wants more and more and more and more to witness
to lay down and bear true

a cherry onion
firefly
tastes sweet and white
as you are blue
knows just what she wants to do with you
below the silver skies

don't hate her because she's undecided
and she's tired and she's sick of the same old shit
it's just more of the same old same
i know she wants more and more and more and more to stomach
in honor of her youth

she's not sorry
she's happy
sorry
she's happy
she's not sorry
she's happy sorry
she's happy as a turtle
she's a real live transformer
