Artist/Band: Beck
Lyrics for Song: Devils Haircut
Lyrics for Album: Odelay



somethin's wrong cause my mind is fading,
and everywhere I look there's a dead end waiting,
temperature's dropping at the rotten oasis
stealing kisses from the leper's faces
heads are hanging from the garbageman trees
mouthwash, jukebox, gasoline,
pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets
smiling eyes with 'em out of the sockets

got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind

love machines on the sympathy crutches
discount orgies on the dropout buses
hitchin' a ride with the bleedin' noses
comin' to town with the briefcase blues

got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind

somethin' wrong cause my mind is fading
ghetto blastin' disintegrating
rock 'n' roll, know what I'm saying?
everywhere I look there's a devil in waiting.

got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind
got a devil's haircut in my mind


Devils Haircut

Beck's "Devils Haircut" stands as a defining track from the 1995 album Odelay, blending psychedelic rock with hip-hop influences to create a dense, layered soundscape. The song features Beck's signature falsetto and intricate production, reflecting the eclectic fusion that characterized the era of alternative rock. It explores themes of spiritual crisis and existential dread, delivered with a haunting vocal performance that anchors the track's emotional intensity. As a centerpiece of Odelay, the recording exemplifies the band's experimental approach, merging diverse musical traditions into a cohesive and provocative statement. Its enduring legacy lies in its ability to capture the chaotic energy of the mid-90s while maintaining a timeless quality that continues to resonate with listeners.
