The Breeders - Last Splash Lyrics






New Year

Just to say she minds
Some girls
Who caught my eyes
You've got to understand
I'm a manchild
Lord of the thighs
Well, well, my God
What have we got here
Your fashion across the floor
Make a perfect
No debate
On the hook
Someone take a look
I'm the man child
Lord of the thighs
You must have come here to find it
You've got a look in your eyes
I am the lord of your thighs
You must have come here to find it
You've got that look in your eyes
Although you really don't want it
I am the lord of your thighs

Cannonball

Ahoo Ahooh Ahooh Ahooh Ahooh Ahooh
Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell... crash
I'm the last splash
I know you, little libertine
I know you're a real koo koo

Hey now, hey now, ...
Want you, Koo Koo, Cannonball [2x]
In the shade [4x]

I know you, little libertine
I know you're a cannonball
I'll be you're whatever you want
The bong in this Reggae Song

Hey now, hey now, ...
Want you, Koo Koo, Cannonball [2x]
In the shade [4x]

Spitting in a wishing well
Blown to hell... crash
I'm the last splash
I'll be you're whatever you want
The bong in this Reggae Song

Hey now, hey now, ...
Want you, Koo Koo, Cannonball [2x]
In the shade [4x]

Invisible Man

he's the invisible man
count the bubbles in your hand
the southern skies
and the summer sites
that's all that's left behind
the skies, and a sweet caress

he's the invisible man
catch him if you can
you're no where in site (just imagine that)
nothing excites you (baby that's a fact)
open your eyes
look and you will find
that's all that's left behind...the skies
and a sweet caress
the skies, the sights
and a sweet caress
he's the invisible man
catch him if you can

that's all that's left behind...the skies
and a sweet caress
the skies, the sights
and a sweet caress
he's the invisible man
catch him if you can

No Aloha

No bye, no aloha
Gone with a rock promoter
A rock promoter
I know, I saw
And now may die

Oh, all the treats
Saw it on the wall
Motherhood means mental freeze
(Freezeheads)
No aloha
I know, I saw
And now may die

No bye, no aloha
Gone with a rock promoter
A rock promoter
I know, I saw
And now may die

Do You Love Me Now?

If I saw you now
Could I look in your eyes?

Do you think of me
Like I dream of you?

Do you wish you were here
Like I wish I was with you?

You've loved me before
Do you love me now?

Does love ever end
When two hearts have torn away?
Or does it go on
And beat strong anyway?
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?

Come back to me right now!
C'mon c'mon come back to me right now!

C'mon c'mon come back to me right now!
C'mon c'mon come on!

You've loved me before
Do you love me now?

You've loved me before
Do you love me now?

I Just Wanna Get Along

We were rich once
Before your head exploded
Imagine doing just what the Big Bang did
The whole world
Knew it was loaded
Wave bye-bye 'cause it ain't ever coming down now

I just want to get along
I just want to get along

I look up
The heads fly over
I see a boy I know: his hair's on fire
The whole world I discovered
If you're so special why aren't you dead

I just want to get along
I just want to get along
I just want to get along

Wave bye-bye 'cause it ain't never coming down

I just want to get along
I just want to get along
I just want to get along

Mad Lucas

Idiots and palsied
Blink in corners we leave

Know you like to be seen
Moral insanities

Arise, wash your face
From cinder and soot
You're a nuisance
And I Don't like Dirt

Tale of cities
Hermit of Redcoat's green

Hermit of Redcoat's green
Open Sesame

Eternal Providence
Open Sesame

Divine Hammer

i'm just looking
just looking for a way around
it disappears this near
you're the rod i'm water
i'm just looking for the divine hammer

one divine hammer
one divine hammer

i'm just looking for one divine hammer
i'd bang it all day
oh the carpenter goes bang
bang bang
i'm just looking for one divine hammer

one divine hammer
one divine hammer

i'm just looking for a faith
waiting to be followed
it disappears this near
you're the rod i'm water
i'm just looking for one divine hammer

one divine hammer
divine hammer

Hag

hag! coastal cut-throat!
you dirty switch,
you're on again

all night, all night, all night

under the stars
under their light
all over the girl
only looks bright

you're just like a woman
hag
you're just like a woman
you're on again

but some... times
under the stars
under their light
you're everything right

you're on again!
under the stars
under their light
all right
allright

Saints

I like all the different people
I like sticky everywhere
Look around, you bet I'll be there!
Hot metal in the sun
Pony in the air
Sooey and saints at the fair

Saints alive you're saying
Walk in ... squares
The hid are out, out for the year
It's a lot of face
A lot of crank air
Eroding around here

Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are

I like all the different people
I like every kind of fair
In the crowd, you bet I'll be there!
Walkin' around
Going nowhere
Seeing Sooey and saints at the fair

Summer is ready when you are
Summer is ready when you are
Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are
Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are

It's a lot of face, crank air

Summer's ready
Summer is ready when you are

Drivin' on 9

Drivin' on 9
You could be a shadow
Beneath the street light
Behind my home

Drivin' on 9
I sure miss you
Pass a motel
Looking at the pines

Drivin' on 9
Looking for one thirty
Maybe I passed it
Go another mile

Drivin' on 9
Drivin' on 9

Drivin' on 9
I'll sure look pretty
Carson City
Walking down the aisle

Drivin' on 9
Does daddy have a shotgun?
He said he'd never need one
Go another mile

Drivin' on 9

Drivin' on 9
Looking out my windowsill
Wondering if I want you still
Wondering what's mine

Drivin' on 9
Drivin' on 9
Drivin' on 9

Back to: The Breeders


Last Splash is the second album by American alternative rock band the Breeders, released on August 30, 1993. Originally formed as a side project for Pixies bassist Kim Deal, the Breeders quickly became her primary recording outlet. Last Splash peaked at number 33 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, and by June 1994, the album had been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipments in excess of one million units.

The title of the album is taken from a lyric from its lead single, "Cannonball". The video for "Cannonball" was directed by Spike Jonze and Kim Gordon, and the video for the album's second single "Divine Hammer" was directed by Jonze, Gordon and Richard Kern.

A looped guitar sample of "S.O.S." was used by the English electronic music band the Prodigy in their 1996 hit single "Firestarter". A sample from "I Just Wanna Get Along" was used in another track by the Prodigy called "World's on Fire" from the Invaders Must Die album.

In 2003, Pitchfork listed the album at number 64 on their list of the Top 100 Albums of the 1990s. In 2020, Rolling Stone ranked the album number 293 in their revised list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time (after not including it in the original 2003 list or the 2012 revision).

On May 13, 2013, 4AD released LSXX, a deluxe 20th anniversary version of the album, and on September 22, 2023, 4AD released Last Splash (30th Anniversary Original Analog Edition), with additional tracks "Go Man Go" and "Divine Mascis".
