Doesnt matter does it. Both would make sense. If the man was English; it would be Come on you slags. Canadian or US it would be I want sex, just coz the accent makes it sound different. You git Rich!
I like Start as you mean to go on better anyway! :)

Beetles don't come out at night, beetles Do come out in the heat.
singing nieeght is just forcing the word into the melody.. no something RDJ would do..

Beetles: "Beetles, cover my gardeeeeen, cover my wheat, they bum out in the heat."
- OR -
"Beatles, without John Lennon, suck on my teat, they come out of the meat."
Come on you slags: "Common ewslaaaaaazz"

I don't know if there's a different version outside of the UK, but the UK version of beetles is they come out in the heat.
It's not even slightly ambiguous. And anyway heat rhymes with feet. Night doesn't.

I'm from America and I too always heard "I want sex" when I listened to "Come on you Slags!" and never thought twice about it. Perhaps it's just an American thing, as you've been saying. I'll have to listen to it again very carefully later tonight (I'm not near my CD's now).
As for beatles, heh, again I always heard the feet thing but I never understood the middle line at all. We Americans just aren't good at deciphering you over-sea-ers apparantly ;)

Well I just listened to it very closely and I can finally pick out him saying, "Come on you Slags!" It's still close either way though, I have to admit. It makes more sense to be saying Come on you Slags anyway, being as though it's the title of the song.

it always sounded like "i want your sex" to me. i never really thought about it though. i am going to listen to it now and see what i think after reading all this arguing.

ok in my opinion 5is6 was right and it is a vocoder. it is vocoding both phrases together "i want your sex" AND "come on you slags" also there is a flanger on that bitch and probably a pre amp filter or some kind of bandpass for the extra hissing.
its like that laughing that is vocoded with a voice saying "aphex twin" in Cow Cud is a Twin. anyone who has used a vocoder before knows how this works. and if you listen carefully, you can hear BOTH phrases.

actually, there is a lot of vocoding going on on the whole album. ventolin for example has that highpitch screaching vocoded to the bass kick noise. you can tell because every time the bass kick hits the screeching gets distorted. it is my opinion that RDJ must have just figured out his vocoder software when he wrote this album cuz its all over that fucker.

i can read 'i want new slacks' into it as well, but it's definitely 'come on you slags'.. and beetles is SO 'they come out the heat' i can't see what the argument is on that one, it's as plain as day, that

If you stop thinking of it in a North American accent, and instead think of it as a Bob Hoskins-style mockney accent, you'll realize that it's definitely "Come on you slags."

speaking of strange voices in Richard works, didi u all heard the french sentence said by a girl in windowlicker lp??
its a little bit after the rythmic part in the mddle, she says : "j'aime faire des craquettes aux chiens" ; what could translate by "i love to do sexual things with dogs"...!!!

well lookie there, we agree on something. ;p
That's what I've always heard the lyrics as for both songs as well. Although some people have said the "i want/love sex" part is just a distorted voice saying "aphex"...
