Grendel "These are my private things They are against the wall the dirty pictures, religious objects if you would only come and get them out of here" This is my private bed this is where i lie at night staring at the lightbulb staring at the ceiling waiting for a dream to come and get me out of here" 000601 ... "Skin" c. 1989? "this is someone else's story someone that i never knew this is someone else's body am i getting through to you? if you peel away the armor is it too late to begin? if you look below for hidden treasure are you hiding under there? underneath another layer (if you peel away the skin is there anybody there...?) there's a heart that's made of iron there's a heart that's made of stone over years the wzlls got higher over years the walls have grown and this bond has passed between us now a momentary recognition of something lost and something gained and something there that feels strange something cold that will not go away (if you peel away the skin, is there any body there) if you peel away the layers is there someone in this room is there anybody in here in this self-inflicted tomb if you peel away the skin if you peel away the skin this is someone else's story someone that i never knew this is someone else's body Am I Getting Through To You?" --- from "the dark at the end of the tunnel" ... 000601 ... MollyGoLightly The Edward Scissorhands soundtrack will invariably make me very very upset when I listen to it, though I do like it a lot. Thanks for it, SchleiffenCdPirate :) 000601 ... jennifer without a doubt, my all time favourite Oingo Boingo/Elfman song has to be insanity example, I had a very poor copy of this song on tape (thanks to my friend, Jimmy) and I played it continually for 5 years before the tape finally broke. I'm so sorry, please forgive me Who do I pray to to straighten out this problem? Straighten out this problem, straighten out my mind. Straighten out this crooked toungue... My mind has wandered, from the straight and narrow. My mind has wandered from the flock you see. My mind has wandered, the man just said so. My mind has wandered, I heard it on TV. And the flock has wandered away from me. -CHORUS- All around the world now Like a big bright cherry cloud Traveling from home to home TV sets and telephones Here it comes just like a storm Bathe in it and be reborn Time to let the world know Welcome madness, say hello Like a wave we cannot see Washing over you and me Hiding here and hiding there Madness hiding everywhere Such a curiosity Here it comes to set us free Plenty left for you and me Say hello insanity I am the virus, are you the cure? I am morally, I'm morally impure I am a disease and I am unclean I am not part of God's well oiled machine Christian nation, assimilate me Take me in your arms and set me free I am part of a degenerate elite Dragging our society into the streeet Into the abyss and to the sewer don't you see The man just told me, he told me on TV Do you think you're better than me Do you want to kill me or befriend me And the alchoholic bastard waved his finger at me His voice was filled with evanglical glee Sipping down his gin and tonics While preaching about the evils of narcotics And the evils of sex, and the wages of sin While he mental fondles his next of kin My mind has wandered from the flock you see And the flock has wandered away from me And he waved his hypnotizing finger at me Let's imitate reality Let's strive for mediocrity Let's make believe we're all the same Let's sanitize our little brains I'd love to take you home with me and tuck you into bed I'd love to see what makes you tick inside your pretty head I'd love to hear you laugh tonight, I'd love to hear you weep I'd love to listen to you while you're screaming in your sleep Christian sons, christian daughters Lead me along like a lamb to the slaughter Purify my brain and hose down my soul White perfection, perfection is my goal Do you think you're better than me Do you want to kill me or befriend me Christian nation, make us alright Put us through the filter and make us pure and white My mind has wandered from the flock you see And the flock has wandered away from me Let's talk of family falues while we sit and watch the slaughter Hypothetical abortions on imaginary daughters The white folks think they're on the top ask any proud white male A million years of evolution, we get Danny Quayle (chorus) I'd love to take you home with me, I'd love to tuck you in I wish I could protect you from the wages of our sin I'd love to hear you scream tonight, I'd love to hear you cry Protect you from the madness that is raining from the sky (chorus) I'd love to take you home with me and tuck you into bed I'd love to see what makes you tick inside your pretty head I wish that I could keep you in a precious Chinese box On Sundays I would pray for you so it would never stop I'd love to hear you laugh tonight, I'd love to hear you weep I'd love to listen to you while you're screaming in your sleep I'd love to soothe you with my voice and take your hand in mine I'd love to take you past the stars and out of reach of time I'd love to see inside your mind, to tear it all apart To cut you open with a knife and find your sacred heart I'd love to take your satin dolls and tear them all to shreds I'd love to mess your pretty hair, I'd love to see you dead. 000601 ... Grendel Yes... my favourite too 000601 ... MollyGoLightly my favorite is "little girls." its a rad song and a friend of mine does the funniest little dances while he listens to it. 000727 ... misstree the end of the farewell video has the two best ends of the boingo spectrum for me... the video for "little girls", complete with bad bluescreening and midgets, and the vid for "insanity", done by the same people as tool's "sober", dark and creepy and primal... ah... bask in the glory that is elfman... 001116 ...
