Yeah Yeah Yeahs: Show Your Bones
Surviving the NYC clearout, they’re back, better than ever
First things first, we need to deal with the elephant in the room, to dispel the thick fug of rumour that hangs heavy over this release. ‘Show Your Bones’ is not, repeat not, a concept album about Karen O’s pussy. Perhaps we should clarify. Despite earlier reports by producer Squeak E Clean (aka Sam Spiegal, brother of Karen O’s ex-flame, Spike Jonze), the LP is not titled ‘Coco...

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Show Your Bones: Wikipedia Album Entry
Show Your Bones is the second full-length album by new New York indie rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs. It was released on March 27, 2006 (March 28, 2006 in North America) and nominated for a 2007 Grammy Award for "Best Alternative Music Album".
The album is more subdued in tone from previous records, especially the caustic noise of their self-titled debut EP. Producer Squeak E. Clean adds subtle layers of keyboards, sirens, bells, handclaps; five of the 11 songs utilize acoustic guitar, all prominently.
It was originally stated that the album was to be a concept album about the lead singer Karen O's cat entitled Coco Beware, but this turned out to be untrue. The cat does exist, but belongs to a friend of Karen's.
In December 2006, the album was named the second best album of the year by NME magazine, as well as "Cheated Hearts" being voted the 10th best song. Rolling Stone magazine named it the 44th best album of 2006, while Spin magazine ranked it number 31 on their 40 best albums of 2006.
Following its release, the album debuted at number 11 on the U.S. Billboard 200, with about 56,000 copies sold in its first week.
In an interview with Blender magazine, the bands says during the writing and recording that they had almost broke up, calling that time one of their "darkest" moments.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Show Your Bones Lyrics
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion Lyrics
Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is
Gold lion's gonna tell me where the light is
Take our hands out of control
Take our hands out of control
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Warrior Lyrics
When itâs missing then you want it more, it isnât right
Turning, turning out the door and back to this
Leave it like it was before and let me out
Must have been the end of the story
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - The Sweets Lyrics
Green shadow, water weight all over, all over me
The end will shelter me away from me
Can we meet again, meet and meet, and meet, and meet again?
Can ya fill the can if ya canât fill me?
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Mysteries Lyrics
My arms are all twisted, the only thing I miss is
I messed up, I missed it, I messed up, the missing of you
It's getting to sound like theyâve seen you around with her
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Dudley Lyrics
Hot cold season gonna sink in my sweat
No one isn't ever gonna make it there yet
If you can't even cope with it then, then you'll pass me by
And you'll take it well over and make it mine
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Cheated Hearts Lyrics
Cheated by the opposite of love
Held on high from up up up above
Kept my high from the second one
Kept my eye on the first one
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Honeybear Lyrics
Turn yourself around, you weren't invited
Turn yourself around, you weren't invited
Good good things happen in bad towns
Good good things happen in bad towns
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Phenomena Lyrics
Hey
Don't touch kid, sleep with the light, it's on
Touch kid, how you surprise me now
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fancy Lyrics
I find it in an atlas or flippin' over old news
Check whatâs in the trash bag
We're just another part of you
We're just another part of you
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Way Out Lyrics
Lies and love, lies, love
Bed wetting son of the great heat
It's all over me, it's all under me
The face ain't making what the mouth needs
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Turn Into Lyrics
I know what I know, I know
On the car ride down, I hear it in my head real low
Turn into the only thing I ever
Turn into, hope I do, turn into you
