Heavy Young Heathens – Sha La La La La lyrics
Unphased she's motivated by her lack of charm
She keeps her social status in a tattoo on her arm
Takes up with visitors professors all by trade
Although she's 21 she tells them all she's 28

Let's talk about love, let's talk about hate
Last time that we spoke it was a little much too late
Let's talk about soul, let's talk about fame
So much talk so little time she plays it like a game
Sha la la la la

Please Mr. Grieves bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm, with needles in her arms
Well I got nowhere to go, but I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no, I can't stand being alone

Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la
Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la

Her car is empty and the milk has all run dry
She dresses for the weather after dinner's when she dines
She hands out tokens while the patrons wait in line
Although she's 22 she tells them all she's 29

Let's talk about black, let's talk about gold
Make us all believe again before you get too old
Let's talk about red, let's talk about blue
The only other color left's the one I saved for you
(Sha la la la la la)

Please Mr. Grieves bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm, with needles in her arms
Well I got nowhere to go, but I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no, I can't stand being alone

Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la
Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la

I can't stand being no, why don't you leave me alone

It's late October by the time that she awakes
And suddenly she's laughing and decides to take the train
Although she's 35 she tell us all she's 28
Sha la la la

Please Mr. Grieves bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm, with needles in her arms
Well I got nowhere to go, but I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no, I can't stand being alone

Please Mr. Grieves bring my baby back to me
Well she's crazy like a storm, with needles in her arms
Well I got nowhere to go, but I'm so damn far from home
Well I, I can't stand being no, I can't stand being alone

Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la
Hey hey hey hey
Sha la la la la

    I've seen another person online say this song is about death, but me personally, I like to be a bit more literal in this case. So, I think this song is about a woman in the clubbing scene. She's not super smart, hence lack of charm, and is in the drug scene as well. She takes up with "visitors, professors all by trade," which makes me think of visiting professors, like guest professors at a college, so perhaps she was a student at some point in the song. There's also the stereotype of college students being partners. The rest of this theory I think is pretty self explanatory. "After dinner's when she dines," people party at night typically. Lying about one's age is a common thing in club scenes too. The only other thing I'll give my two cents on is "Let's talk about red, let's talk about blue, the only other color left is one I save for you." I think red white and blue, red and blue have been covered, so it's white. I think depending on interpretation it could be different things, but my money is on either the narrator talking about having sex with the lady (white fluid), or cocaine (white powder). I'm a bit surprised people are taking this as anything other than a (perhaps satirical) song about partying.
