There you are alone
With no hope of ever having something to be proud of
Something earned without begging
Yes, I know you're a person,
A person close to me
Who do you think you are?
What more do you want from me?
Ball Tongue
-You got the dykes off, I think they'll mind me
Ball Tongue
-The rag I'm on, we are justified
Ball Tongue
-Congrats you just fucked up my make-up and shit
Ball Tongue
-What have you done for me?
Why are you at home buried in your own self pity?
Why do you insist on living the life clean out of me?
Yes, I know you're the person, the person that took time with me
Does it give you the right to expect your life revolves around me?
Ball Tongue
-You have come to take from your buddy
Ball Tongue
-You have never been so funky
Ball Tongue
-The higgle got sick of me
Ball Tongue
-Ahh, the dick is fine for the day
Ball Tongue
-Your brother took it from me
Ball Tongue
-Unidetified enemy
Ball Tongue
-Come fucking back to save us and gave up
Ball Tongue
-They've come to deliver me
You were my brother, Where does our friendship end? (repeated)
I'm not going to give in
How can you fuck'n doubt me, but not again (repeated)
Ball Tongue
-They've driven right by my friends
Ball Tongue
-They've taken the take above me
Ball Tongue
-You're a psycho monkey
Ball Tongue
-They've come to enslave me
Ball Tongue
-They've jacken themselves onto me
Ball Tongue
-Your fuck'n gangster signs
Ball Tongue
-They've come not to save them, but they take
Ball Tongue
-Fuck'n death to fuck'n me
You're a psychopath
Ball Tongue
-Berome died at the technodrome
Ball Tongue
-You're right, he's dead, tear gas dropped, but who was it?
Ball Tongue
-It dosen't of the rhythm of the damn monger
Ball Tongue
-Can I die? Can I die?
Ball Tongue
-And then, the man kept kick'n me
Ball Tongue
-Ino the morgue, they go
Ball Tongue
-He wasn't dead, and then they knocked him on the head
Ball Tongue
-No more, he's rid of you.
You're a Dyke
"The meaning of ball tongue is simple. Some thought it had to
do with oral sex, but infact its about a guy we had to work with on a t-shirt.
He either had a pierced tongue or a wart or something on his tongue and he was a
dick to us"
- Jonathan Davis
While the lyrics to Ball Tongue would have you believe otherwise it has always been said that the song a guy with a pierced tongue who used to make t-shirts for the band but ended up screwing them all over.
"There you are alone, with no hope of ever having something to be proud of, something earned without begging"
It appears that the person was close to Jonathan but he had doubt that what he was doing for the band made any difference, so s/he backstabbed them. S/he disconnected her/himself from Korn and ended up doing nothing, in the hope that they would come running back to save him/her from his own self pity.
"Why are you at home buried in your own self pity? Why do you insist on living the life clean out of me? "
The person was one of few who shared time with Jonathan but became obsessed with him, expecting him to give all his attention.
"Yes, I know you're the person, the person that took time with me.
Does it give you the right to expect your life revolves around me?"
