Little Guitars Lyrics

Artist: Van Halen
Album: Diver Down

Senorita,Im in trouble again,
And i cant get free ( Senorita )
Hear exactly what the doctor ordered,
Come and talk to me
( Ah ) Can't crow before Im outa the woods but theres exceptions to the rule
( Ah ) Senorita do you need a friend, Im in love with you
Etch a Sketch,etch a sketch
can anybody in their right mind could see,
Its you and me Oooh
You say you're lonesome just getting by,
But you turn your eyes from me,
Be sure you're hurting long before you fly,
Cause you got me
Etch a Sketch,etch a sketch
can anybody in their right mind could see,
Its you and me Oooh
Etch a Sketch,etch a sketch
Yeah when i see you and your little guitars sing to me
I can see you dont know which way to turn,
But the sun still shines ( Senorita )
Dont you know that you can dance with me,
Anytime ( Ah )
Oh oh oh oooh oh
Oh oh oh oooh

by Aaron White on 12/3/2008 6:00am
Ok...I thought it was etch a sketch...when I was 8. I'm in my 30's now and have had Diver Down in my permanant collection since '89. It's catch as catch...short bus, we need an extra seat!
by Rick on 12/19/2008 4:41pm
Etch a sketch get your sketch!!
by rick on 12/20/2008 4:46pm
What does catch as catch mean? It makes as much sense as etch a sketch.
by Dave on 1/27/2009 1:22pm
So what does catch as catch mean? Does anyone know?
by Chuck U Farley on 2/8/2009 9:07pm
Damn, there are some real dumb motherfuckers out there.

catch as catch can:
By whatever means or in any way possible.
by social distorted on 3/19/2009 10:21pm

by vh on 3/25/2009 6:47pm

by 42O on 4/11/2009 12:42pm

Diamond Dave, itsn't known for being the greatest lyricist ever.

That being said, I don't think the lyrics is "Etch a Sketch."
by David on 4/23/2010 3:26pm
I listened to the track (both the studio and live versions) and actually think its etch a sketch. Can't hear the word "Can" in there at all.

Makes sense actually. My sons have an etch a sketch and when you draw with it you can't really make out what the image is supposed to be. "Anyone can see, its you and me". To me it makes more sense than "Catch as catch can" (I used to think this was the lyric back in high school)
by Eddie on 5/11/2010 3:15pm
Good Lord. This is the worst lyric I've ever run across on the internet. Etch A Sketch? Are you kidding me? Jesus Christ. It's not even hard. "Cath as catch can". And it's "YOU'RE exactly what the doctor ordered..."
by Me on 8/11/2010 12:00pm
It is "Get your Sketch" and "You're exactly what the doctor ordered."
by Me Too on 10/31/2010 8:56pm
Wow what a crackhead
by BlueMaize on 2/10/2011 7:56pm
Let's lighten up on the lyric contributor. I used to be the Van Halen Guy in high school, but I didn't know what Dave was singing half the time, either. That's why I came here...in my ancient years (cough-cough.) That said, is there not some way to update (correct) the lyrics?
by Umad on 2/19/2011 8:33am
Awesome trolling in here
by Richard_Toucher on 5/24/2011 9:22pm
OMG you people are equal parts retarded, ignorant, deaf, and even ugly too.

It's ABSOLUTELY "etch a sketch", what are you people, retarded too?

I know Dave's proctologist, and during his most recent exam the doctor asked him for me, and he verified it was indeed "etch a sketch".

He's my doctor too, so he had the good sense to ask Dave why those particular lyrics. He claims that Dave was about to answer, but whatever the procedure was that he was undergoing...ended up causing rectal bleeding, and the question was forgotten in the ensuing bowel, and blood extravaganza.

Hopefully I'll find out in the future, and I'll certainly report back here to tell you scumbags about it.

Etch a sketch, y'all!
by nunyobizznes on 8/20/2011 1:43pm
well, it can go either way, it fits. get ovr it.
by evilanthegood on 11/8/2011 2:06am
If I had whats troubling me. Removed I would live my life etch a scratch iS great shake it an you been erased
by Rob B. on 8/21/2012 11:51am
"Catch as catch can" is a old saying, essentially meaning by whatever means necessary. Kinda goes with the whole retro theme of the album. Seeing as the song is all about the singer trying to get the girl of his dreams (as I picture her, one of the old-timey Spanish senoritas with the lacquered ebony hair comb and a flamenco guitar [hence "little guitars"]), the lyric "catch as catch can" makes perfect sense.
by space ace on 2/17/2013 10:53pm
its catch is catch,...and many other parts are wrong too...i wont put in anything rude or filthy...but learn the lyrics
by Joe on 11/25/2020 6:56pm
It's etch a sketch. Go to VH helpdesk. They have original lyrics written for several songs. Ans for this one they have it listed out as etch a sketch. Why are people so angry also? VH is a party happy band. There is no room for anger and VH.
by Robert Goodman on 12/13/2024 9:43am
All these years I thought it was "Etch-a-Sketch" too. I'm looking it up now only because I heard a similarity in the music to a demo of "Talent Show" by The Replacements.
