Across the room, across the room, I hope to watch you writhe again soon. I sit in class and think of these lyrics all the time, hell 1/10 of my thoughts in class are Say Anything lyrics
Searching for blood in the salty sea The sun beating down On the chest in back of me Looking for drugs in a southern town I've got this red right hand That points me south The puke green clouds Just spat me out Into the hot, hot lands I landed with no shoes I hear "hey, come pollinate me" across the room, I hope to watch you Writhe again soon they've got the army of ears They can't hear you now I got the piss in my veins And these furrowed brows You've got this one last chance To burn me, turn me down If not, i've got these last 12 bucks To spend on you You can take me anywhere Your sick mind wants to Use yourself to fuel me using you I hear "hey, come pollinate me"
Yeah you guys ever just keep replaying these songs do you? It's like an all around personality band. What I love is how they all as switch up the rhythm or style they have playing. Shit is so interestingly amazing to listen to. Dude is always smiling when he's playing, I can just picture it.
Just ordered this album and i dont even have a CD player...guess i need to get one cause this shit hit hard back then and still punching my gut today...
Does anyone ride that line between crass perversion & virtuosic beauty like Max does? Such talent, and his style is so uniquely him. There’s really nothing else like it, even after all these years
What the hell, I wasn't done. After listening to a few songs from "Anarchy,My Dear", I've decided I like ...Is a Real Boy much more and I still can't get enough of it all these years later.
I just happen to be listening to this (again) almost exactly 10 years from this video posting. Theres some coincednece if nothing else. Still one of my favorites

As i have this video muted on my computer so I can hear it in my headphones, I know that this song is one piece of a two-piece puzzle. The other part is Looking For Alaska by John Green.
the yardbirds was an entirely different band beforehand with Jimmy Page. Led Zep were originally gonna go by "The New Yardbirds", but Keith Moon of The Who told them that that idea would go over like a lead balloon. Hence, Led Zeppelin
Well, cuddling and watching bad movies is free, two people can definitely get drunk for $12, but Papi John's is like 20 something dollars when I order. Little Caesar's is more like it. Lol.
believe it or not I'm pretty sure they came up with it themselves, it may sound just like the other thing, but it was their thing when they thought it up
max's darker stuff like admit it, and in defense of the genre.. are his best... some stuff off the older albums too. cant compare them to led zeppelin though... everything led put out was great
@thefinner44 I think i sorta posted my comment wrong I think I meant how can you compare them its like comparing an ant to a gorilla there two completely different things
@Funwiththesaints No trolls here buck-o, I posted that comment cause I used to work at this pizza joint and I worked with some homosexuals and all they would play is this band, and it got old after a while, all they would talk about was say anything and how there music was a big part of the gay scene and how they would play them in all the gay clubs, im just stating what I know to be fact, its not a big deal, im sure they have straight fans too!!! I mean read some of these other comments
What I honestly hate is when people rip on other bands just because it's "not their genre", "this band sucks ass" or "these guys have no talent" well let me ask you this. Do you have a band of your own that's better than them? You don't have the right to say that because they're making money for the beautiful music they make. If you don't like, then leave. The last thing people need is someone like you ruining someone else's favorite song just because "you don't like it". Haters please, if you don't have anything nice to say, then shut the fuck up. :)
fuck em. i was listening to this at 15 and my taste in music a changed ten fold in the past 8 years but my love for say anything will never die. theyre content is universal. people just hate on success...
"wah someone dislikes something i like" You are literally just as bad as the people you are complaining about. Nice use of the passive-aggressive smiley face though.
Imma just say it, I might cover this song and make it more famous than the original. I’ll do everything I can to make sure Max and the rest of Say Anything are recognized for this... whatever this is though. I’m not gonna call it a masterpiece but it’s a damn good song.
I like how you can hear Max smiling
My favourite comment ever, because it's so true.
And spitting all over the mic in the booth. Or if it's live, all over the crowd lol
I can listen to this song for 50 times strainght - and it just doesnt get old. Also love the Burn A Miracle song.
Across the room, across the room, I hope to watch you writhe again soon.

Searching for blood in the salty sea
The sun beating down
On the chest in back of me
Looking for drugs in a southern town
I've got this red right hand
That points me south
The puke green clouds
Just spat me out
Into the hot, hot lands
I landed with no shoes
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"
across the room,
I hope to watch you
Writhe again soon
they've got the army of ears
They can't hear you now
I got the piss in my veins
And these furrowed brows
You've got this one last chance
To burn me, turn me down
If not, i've got these last 12 bucks
To spend on you
You can take me anywhere
Your sick mind wants to
Use yourself to fuel me using you
I hear
"hey, come pollinate me"
this whole album was golden
Best album this century...
"...is golden"...
my brother showed me this song when i was in seventh grade. I am now a sophomore in college and still listen to it.
hope you graduated, and you're still listening
Nathan Wright I hope Nathan is still alive and doing well in life.
+Confused Potato I hope Potato is doing well and is no longer confused
What are you up to now?
Still listening?
No drug no sex no voilice 1000% phenomenal music
Saw them live a few months ago and they open with this song. I have never screamed so loudly as the moment I saw Max Bemis run out onto the stage.
Omg I still know all the lyrics 10+ years later
Learned how to play it in 2012, play it sometimes when I busk:)
GOOD TASTE IN MUSIC! STAY BLESSED WORLD... REVOLUTION SQAUD... OUT
Loved them when I was 15 and 16, decided to see if I grew out of them. Fuck no I didn't.
im 31 and can't stop listening.
Dino Callas i fucking love them
You don't out grow good music...
Yeah you guys ever just keep replaying these songs do you? It's like an all around personality band. What I love is how they all as switch up the rhythm or style they have playing. Shit is so interestingly amazing to listen to. Dude is always smiling when he's playing, I can just picture it.
SAAAAME
Amazing! Max Bemis is a philosopher.
2017 and still awesome.
2022, and still awesome...
One of my favorite Say Anything songs. Soo aweesomeee
Just ordered this album and i dont even have a CD player...guess i need to get one cause this shit hit hard back then and still punching my gut today...
Fun fact: I have no idea what this is from, I just heard it in this video and spent all day looking for the full thing.
It's pretty epic.
Easily their best song.
@@tylerwilliams6658 yes
@@tylerwilliams6658 The songs on this album are all equal...it's near perfect...
I just found this bound like 10 minutes ago. HOLY CRAP I'VE BEEN MISSING OUT
Oh yyeeeaaahhhhh
I miss you already so much say anything (Max Bemis). I hope you come back someday
Max could pollinate me any day.
Actually anything can be "addictive" it all depends on moh much you are in to something.
Does anyone ride that line between crass perversion & virtuosic beauty like Max does?
Such talent, and his style is so uniquely him. There’s really nothing else like it, even after all these years
The most underrated band ever? I think so. They're new shits just as great as their old stuff, how many bands can manage that? Not many.
"They're new shits."
+Overlord Vegeta you take that back right now, you knucklehead.
Underrated? Their concerts sell out pretty regularly that’s anything but “underrated”
Their new trash is garbage juice. Max musta finally sold his $12 soul to writhe with the devil.
I love Say Anything, but that's a false statement and you know it.
Yikes! Walked into a hipster fight. Pea coats and scarfs are flying everywhere.
Where are the hipsters? Let's fuck 'em up.
The lyrics are fucking great.
What the hell, I wasn't done. After listening to a few songs from "Anarchy,My Dear", I've decided I like ...Is a Real Boy much more and I still can't get enough of it all these years later.
I'd writhe for Max...
I just happen to be listening to this (again) almost exactly 10 years from this video posting. Theres some coincednece if nothing else. Still one of my favorites
I hear hey, hey hey hey, come pollinate me heyyyyy
the bridge to this song is incredible

I'm 49, and agree...this album rules all...
This song is still awesome!

All the comments are old. We are still here
Shits so fire. To. This. Day.
Favorite song atm 3
Andy Cortez brought me here
the yardbirds was an entirely different band beforehand with Jimmy Page. Led Zep were originally gonna go by "The New Yardbirds", but Keith Moon of The Who told them that that idea would go over like a lead balloon. Hence, Led Zeppelin
Ms. Ballance... Okay. I've been searching for you as Mr. Bemis as been searching for polllen. -Mr. Wolk. Yeah...

2020?
After listening to a few of the songs from "Anarchy, My Dear", I
Remember the good old days when you could post a video of a song, and then edit in words thanking your audience using a Windows Editing System...lolz.
I'll be there too.
yeah! yeah! OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hell yeah dude hahaha
was it in Pensacola in October? they opened with the same song, I'm assuming because they were in the south.
you dont get over it.
True but weed addiction isn't much different than my caffeine addiction
7 people are writhing again.
hey, hey hey hey
I've got these $12 bucks to spend on you... Lets get Papa Johns... A bottle of booze... and cuddle to bad movies. I know you'd love to.
$12 does not cover any of it. Maybe in 1978 it did.
+Eddie Martz I'll have you know $12 can get you very drunk in a pinch. After that the rest just doesn't matter.
+The Pants Str8 alcohol
Well, cuddling and watching bad movies is free, two people can definitely get drunk for $12, but Papi John's is like 20 something dollars when I order. Little Caesar's is more like it. Lol.
this was 2004 tho, pizza was probably like 6 bucks
@xHigherxNowx Try their newest self titled album, it's not exactly in this vein, but it hails back to songs like this
believe it or not I'm pretty sure they came up with it themselves, it may sound just like the other thing, but it was their thing when they thought it up
Yeah yeah yeah oook!!
lookin for drugs in a southern town...
i feel like i should relate to this song on a more existential level. but nope.
it's still amazing.
Rofl at the cover!

"wah someone dislikes something i like"
You are literally just as bad as the people you are complaining about.
Nice use of the passive-aggressive smiley face though.
@NotTooIntoMe you copy and pasted WORD for WORD from a most liked comment from another of say anythings songs -_-
really dude? lol, its is a real boy.
Imma just say it, I might cover this song and make it more famous than the original. I’ll do everything I can to make sure Max and the rest of Say Anything are recognized for this... whatever this is though. I’m not gonna call it a masterpiece but it’s a damn good song.
@haackcody8 Haha That would! XD
its definitely from led zeppelin 3
@thefinner44 ...I like cheeseburgers.. :(
