ive been listening to this song for 15 years, here's to 40 more!!!!!!! I want joy off of "The Worldhood of the world (as such)" played at my funeral. Possibly my favorite band of all time, if not the best then very close.......
Reminds me a bit, in the best possible way, of the freeform ranting Charles Manson would do in jailhouse interviews. If you listen long enough, you start to think "Hmm, but what if he's RIGHT?"
0 + 2 = 1 Race to the finish line at a dead run Live is short and love is fleeting - Before these masks, haloed with snakes Hissing like rain on the pavement The blind are deafened and the lame are made dumb For that queer equation this is the sum: 0 + 2 = 1 0 + 2 = 1 Before the feast, chops on the block! A word, to the wise, is a fork into flesh. Everything streched under God's great hand: A mouth to an breast, an axe to a tree, The hoot of an owl in the dreams of a mouse - Count on your fingers, it's the rule of the thumbs, but 0 + 2 = 1 0 + 2 = 1 Yes and no are like day and night, One breaks as the other is falling. Questions the answers, stir the solutions, In the end, for light, you must burn your conclusions; Night and darkness love silence above all, Not the equations of sun-loving apes, Or their prayers for the dead of a world that's to come 0 + 2 = 1 0 + 2 = 1 It may not be nice, it may not be fun, It may just be a halo of hissing snakes. But if nothing is something, if to rise is to fall, Then a child needs a name like a corpse needs a pall - Nonsense is better than no sense at all. Hail to the lies by which all truths are hounded! Teh murder is done, the temple is founded Where the current is grounded ist circuitry hums: 0 + 2 = 1 (These events are the same, in a differnet chain for the myth of logic and ist heroes) 1-2= ?)
I have to insist that the word "NOTHING" is not part of this song's lyrics (it's the beginning of the next). That's the appeal, as far as I'm concerned: It's almost a paralipsis, but you're like, "is it a paralipsis? Is 'nothing' actually implied?" And the next song starting with the repetitive "Nothing! Nothing!..." etc begins a whole new subject, which just lends to the ambiguity. Makes things more interesting, I find. You may accuse me of nitpicking, and that's fine. I just thought I'd suggest it. Regardless, thanks for uploading.

I have always been a 'the Fall is the best band ever', but I have to finally admit it: Nomeansno is the best.
Cannot get that evil bass out of my head, I love it
I read this as bass as in the fish 🤣
stunning, playfully mischievous lyricism
Mathematically true.
Dear odin these guys kill it! I have also been listening to them for about 20 years and they just keep getting better!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I played this at an open jam night on bass
..as about as understood as Flipper bass lines

Somebody tell Terrance Howard about this.
0 + 2 = 1
Race to the finish line at a dead run
Live is short and love is fleeting -

Hissing like rain on the pavement
The blind are deafened and the lame are made dumb

As far as i am concerned, the song is made worse my the beginning of the next. as such i am very happy the NOTHING's are not included
Are you saying 1=0?
@@simonmcnamee619 How can puny mortals like you and I (who aren't nomeansno) dare to conclude such things?
nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing (zero)
The album cover artwork cost them $45.
