About Incinerate

This song was released in 2006 as the leading single off Sonic Youth’s “Rather Ripped” album. Moore sings the song, taking a rather conventional trope – the idea of being incinerated as a metaphor for feeling deep, maddening passion and desire – but taking it to rather extreme levels. The video for "Incinerate" is a performance of the band that was recorded at Le Nouveau Casino in Paris prior to their 2006 tour in support of the album, while the others are set in an apartment and repeat images of cats, roofing tiles and TV antennas. .

Incinerate Lyrics

[00:42.38] I ripped your heart out from your chest
[00:48.56] Replaced it with a grenade blast
[00:55.13] Incinerate, incinerate
[01:01.23] Incinerate, incinerate
[01:07.54] The firefighters hose me down
[01:13.77] I don't care, I'll burn out anyhow
[01:20.06] It's for alarm, girl, nothing to see
[01:26.49] Hear the sirens come for me, ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah
[01:32.24]
[02:03.68] You dosed my soul with gasoline
[02:09.93] You flicked a match into my brain
[02:16.47] Incinerate, incinerate
[02:22.60] Incinerate, incinerate
[02:28.98] The firefighters are so nice
[02:35.28] I remember you so cold as ice
[02:41.41] Now flames are licking at your feet
[02:47.67] Sirens come to put me out of misery, oh
[02:54.83]
[04:11.40] You wave your torch into my eyes
[04:18.05] Flamethrower lover, burning mind
[04:24.24] Incinerate, incinerate
[04:30.25] Incinerate, incinerate
[04:36.37] Incinerate, incinerate
[04:42.67] Incinerate, incinerate
[04:55.81]
