| 726129 | 2008-12-05 23:14:00 | At work, listening to the radio, heard the above song. I've heard it a few times before but have been sufficently occupied to not notice the lyrics in the chorus. Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human? Or are we dancer? What the hell? Anyone have any idea either what he's on about, or failing that, what he's smoking cause I want some of it. :D Are we human, or are we dancer. Or is it denser? Or dancers? Normally song lyrics have some kind of meaning. :p I suppose it would make some sense if it was denser. But it doesn't sound like it. I'm sure someone has had a revelation and figured out what it means! :p |

| 726131 | 2008-12-06 00:08:00 | The lyric's Human Lyrics I did my best to notice When the call came down the line Up to the platform of surrender I was brought but I was kind And sometimes I get nervous When I see an open door Close your eyes Clear your heart... Cut the cord Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human? Or are we dancer? Pay my respects to grace and virtue Send my condolences to good Give my regards to soul and romance, They always did the best they could And so long to devotion You taught me everything I know Wave goodbye Wish me well.. You've got to let me go Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human? Or are we dancer? Will your system be alright When you dream of home tonight? There is no message we're receiving Let me know is your heart still beating Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer You've got to let me know Are we human? Or are we dancer? My sign is vital My hands are cold And I'm on my knees Looking for the answer Are we human Or are we dancer? Are we human? Or are we dancer? Are we human Or are we dancer?

| 726134 | 2008-12-06 04:14:00 | This came on the radio the other day.....started listening to the lyrics.... :stare: surprised it's allowed in this day and age... Young girl, get out of my mind My love for you is way out of line Better run girl, You're much too young girl With all the charms of a woman You've kept the secret of your youth You led me to believe You're old enough To give me Love And now it hurts to know the truth, Oh, Young girl get out of my mind my love for you is way outta line better run girl, your much too young girl Beneath your perfume and make-up You're just a baby in disguise And though you know That it is wrong to be Alone with me That come on look is in your eyes, Oh, Young girl get outta my mind My love for you is way outta line better run girl, Your much too young girl So hurry home to your mama I'm sure she wonders where you are Get out of here Before I have the time To change my mind 'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far, Oh, Young girl get outta my mind my love for you is way outta line better run girl, your much too young girl |

| 726135 | 2008-12-06 04:15:00 | Lyrical confusion There has been considerable confusion and debate over the line "Are we human or are we dancer?" in the song's chorus.[5] Many have incorrectly heard "denser" instead of "dancer", a change which significantly alters the interpretation of the song's meaning. On the band's official website, the biography section states that Flowers is singing "Are we human, or are we dancer?" and also says that the lyrics were inspired by a disparaging comment made by Hunter S. Thompson about how America was raising a generation of dancers.[6] Entertainment Weekly's Pop Watch section called this line the "silliest lyrics of the week". They were puzzled by the interpretation, stating "most dancers are generally human".[7] Ganz with Rolling Stone called the line "classic Killers' nonsense."[4]. |

It's been allowed in every day and age. It's only recently that people have been marrying after 13 or so. It's thought that Juliet was about 13 or 14. The same is true in Eugene Onegin. The same is true in Bert Brecht's "Whiskey Bar", which was then sung by the Doors. Or do you expect us to be progressing from that? |

Watchin' girls go by, my my my I'm a girl watcher, I'm a girl watcher... Here comes one now I was just a boy when I threw away my toys And found a new pastime to dwell on Whenever I detect mem-bers of the other sex I play the game I do so well on [repeat chorus] Hello there, female - my my, but you do look swell Could you please walk a little slower I wonder if you know that you're putting on a show Could you please walk a little closer The Song on Youtube (www.youtube.com) - have a listen and you'll see what I mean. |
