1. The Army's on Ecstasy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZnMx_hWUik&feature=related
The army's on ecstasy
So they say
I read all about it
In USA Today
They stepped up urine testing
To make it go away
Cause it's hard to kill the enemy
On ol' MDMA

Said the King of Contradiction
To the Queen of Mystery
The Prince of Paradox, he dogs me like a flea
So I'll set my troops upon him
And bring him to his knees
When all is said and done
I'll pick a flight with the Chinese
The Queen she stared him long and hard
And then she softly said
I'll rub you down with linseed oil to ease your throbbing head
She slipped a note into an apricot
Then threw it to the whores
The jester read the words
Something wicked this way roars

The army's on ecstasy
So they say
I read all about it
In USA Today
They stepped up urine testing
To make it go away
Cause it's hard to kill the enemy
On ol' MDMA

The price they put upon the heads
Of folks with poignant views
Would be better spent on
The children without shoes
And when the King condoned
The actions of the liar
He forgot to weight the awesome power
Of the village crier

***gotta love Les Claypool*****


peace~

2. Weeeee!
I have this cranked...

If these guys do not remind me of the original Mothers of Invention, I don't know who does.

I saw the Frog Brigade some years back...second row seats.

Claypool was amazing...one hell of a bassist,,,I remember enjoying the "punches in the chest" that it felt like I was getting from his bass.

I think the man is brilliant, in a Frank Zappa sort of way, as evidenced by these song lyrics.

Thanks for posting this, Dystopian. :loveya:

3. Surprise!
I thought I was going to do my own little music thread...
Haven't done one in a while...
Can't believe you've seen the Frog Brigade....awesome!
I am in love with Les Claypool...what a freak.
I was just listening to more music...and came back to Weeeee!
And doing more research on Sandman...from MA...interesting stuff.

Glad you're enjoying....
Next one is eerie....

:loveya:

peace~
