Sonic Youthis an experimental rockgroup formed in New York City in 1981. They are generally seen as one of the leading innovators of contemporary rock music. In their early career Sonic Youth were associated with the no waveart and music scene in New York City, but have outlasted most associated bands. Initially inspired by the noise experimentationof Glenn Brancaand The Velvet Undergroundand the heavy garage rockof The Stooges, they are known for using a variety of unorthodox guitar tunings, and for applying screwdrivers, drumsticks or other preparations to guitars to alter the instruments timbre. Members of the band have released books of poetry and prose (a beatnik influence is evident in both their writing and lyrics), produced, written and performed in films (such as "1991: The Year Punk Broke", "Perfect Partner", "(this is known as) the blues scale" and "last days").

Whoahooh!
I love you baby cause youre back in time - I love you today
Yr eyes are flashing like a magic sign - the sun comes out to play
I learned it all from you girl - I got it all from you
How to howl the moon yeah - and how to scratch yr dog
I do it every day - come back again tomorrow
You chased it all away
A dreaming beauty sleeping day and night - the sun around you
I love you baby yeah youre superfine - a-comin down too
A purring whirring fuzzy lights of day - a-switching sunlight
I chase you kitten catch you every time - funny how it flies
I learned it all from you girl - I got it all from you
How to howl the moon yeah - and how to scratch yr dog
I do it every day - come back again tomorrow
You chase the life away
I hear you purring through a supersoul - a-puff in to it
A puss in leather yeah a prince in gold - a leather tale away
I learned it all from you girl - I got it all from you
How to howl the moon yeah - and how to scratch yr dog
I do it every day - come back again tomorrow
You chase the life away
