can an english major break down what's going on in terms of tense in that lyric?
― the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 19 September 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
I'm not an English major but I think he's saying that, in the past, whenever he thought about Boris Karloff and Kinski under a new moon he felt compelled to cut off his legs and tits.
The implication is that he had this thought no more than four times.
― sick yr finger up his butt (DJP), Monday, 19 September 2011 16:12 (twelve years ago) link
but isn't "i would cut my legs and tits" off future tense? and "think" is present tense? ugh this is breaking my brain

tenses-wise yeah that's a mess btw. "when I'd think" would solve it but you would still have the problem of the opening clause which is wtf.

I would cut my legs and tits off when I think of Boris Karloff and Kinski in the dark of the moon..
I believe he's saying "boris karloff and kinski in Dark Of The Moon" as in Transformers: Dark Of The Moon.
― da croupier, Monday, 19 September 2011 16:15 (twelve years ago) link
"when I think" is functionally equivalent to "whenever I think"
so he's actually still thinking of them but he's run out of legs and tits

pretty pissed at Lou for ref'ing Boris Karloff tbh because I've been thinking about writing a song about Boris Karloff for a while now

― Ned Raggett, Monday, 19 September 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
It's so nice to know that forty years on from "Walk on the Wild Side" Lou's still got the language down.
"Everybody's colored or else you wouldn't be able to see their dicks" would be the line from the sadly never to happen Captallica Beefheart collab that will never happen.

― fear itself (Ówen P.), Monday, 19 September 2011 17:32 (twelve years ago) link
Lou, I don't think bringing back "coloured" in that context is quite what people meant when they said they hoped you'd go back to your old music for inspiration.
