Coconut Skins Lyrics
Artist(Band):Damien Rice
Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
You can hold her hand
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness
So she understands
And then roll over and die

You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide

Or you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been licking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...

Oh you can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you're searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody's getting old

So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins
And we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...

Review about Coconut Skins
Brilliant | Reviewer: Jamie | 11/22/2007
    This song is about as good as it gets - everytime I hear it makes me want to laugh and then it makes me want to cry. I love the version on Later where Lisa looks like she is thinking about the best thing that ever happened to her when she sings the "la la la la" bit.

    Don't read too much into life, get out there and live it.


    life | Reviewer: may | 9/11/2007

    This song is the spirit of life. Of wasting your life away, smiling, loving it, and in the end, die without regret.


    Beautiful | Reviewer: Amerie Rileigh | 9/4/2007

    This song is so beautifully written.
    The line that hits home most is:

    Time is contagious
    Everybody's getting old.
