Another journey down memory lane via youtube.

My brother had a million albums. I played this one a lot.

And now for something completely different:

Maynard James?

James Herbert Keenan, it turns out.

Quote:

It was during his time in the military that he adopted the sobriquet "Maynard" on a whim.[4] He was distinguished in basic and advanced training,[5] but declined an appointment to West Point and instead chose to pursue a music career because of his disillusionment with his colleagues' values[6] and because he knew West Point would not tolerate his dissidence.[5]

I read up on him since that last post. Interesting.. After reading the lyrics to Prison Sex, I thought he had done time. Wiki makes no mention that I saw if he did. Very interesting and talented fellow, though.

Prison Sex? :eek: :bolt:

yeah.. it's a really good song.. .musically... and then you realize what he's saying....and uhm... yeah. well.. here... give it a listen... and then hit ctrl A on the next post to read the lyrics:

It took so long to remember just what happened.
I was so young and vestal then,
you know it hurt me,
but I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
I've got my hands bound and
my head down and my eyes closed,
half-closed, wide open.

Do unto others, what has been done to me,
Do unto others, what has been done to you?

I'm treading water,
I need to sleep a while.
My lamb and martyr, you look so precious.
Won't you come on up closer,
close enough so I can smell you.
I need you to feel this,
I can't stand to burn too long.
Release in sodomy.
Oh, for one sweet moment I am whole.

Do unto you now, what has been done to me,
Do unto you now, what has been done?

You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
Won't you come on a bit closer,
close enough so I can smell you.
I need you to feel this.
I need this to make me whole.
Release in sodomy.
For I am your witness and
blood and flesh can be trusted.(X2)
And only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind.

Got your hands bound, your head down,
your eyes closed.
You look so precious now.

( Show me something
Thought I could make it end
Thought I could wash the stains away
Thought I could break the circle if I
Slipped right into your skin
So sweet was your surrender
We have become one
I have become my terror
And you my precious lamb and martyr.) *

I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
shit, blood, and cum on my hands.

I've...come...round...full circle.
My lamb and martyr, this will be over, soon.
You look so precious.(X4)
You look so precious, now,
You look so precious...

yeah no, i know the song, just making a joke....butt yeah, the song isn't bad but the lyrics are a tad um....phucked up

if the breakdown starting around 0:50 secs in doesn't get you, what will?

Album version

Live version with slightly different lyrics

A little Vince Guaraldi to get you (and by you I mean me) in the christmas spirit.
