In my youth I took a trip My first initial acid trip And then it hit me like a ton of bricks My eyes they quickly dilated I began hallucinating at the tender age of seventeen As I watched the TV my dogs speaking to me Telling me I'm going insane I recall a scene it's Halloween And I am dressed as a drag queen Peaking to the point of no return I met a man, I shook his hand He spoke I could not understand He was covered in flies and afterbirth The mandrills were singing The bees they were stinging As pink flamingos laid dead on the ground I am the witness, I am Mohammed, I am the elephant man These are strange days beautifully chaotic In a burning metropolis Tuning in and dropping out Dancing Buddha's twist and shout Buddhatomic Christ is love Who resurrects the flower head Cherishing the subtleties Illusion is reality Swimming the electric ocean Souls at rest were set in motion Martians perform autopsies On cattle anal cavities Frontal lobe lobotomies Electric shocking chimpanzees This cause of sorrow is desire Ego fuels the selfish fire Illusion is reality Quantum synchronicity Mandrills were singing The bees they were stinging As pink flamingos laid dead on the ground Visions so clearly of Timothy Leary The godfather of the movement
Wait wait. Is this really "official?" I remember seeing this video years ago and I recall it being described as a class project or something. I also had a hard time finding it in the last few years. Am I hallucinating?
@@elpolkadog1425 this IS the official video, which if I remember right, WAS an art project created solely for this song. Fuck tho, that was yeeeeeeeeears ago now, all I know for sure is this is indeed the official video taken from the dvd I think. Damn I feel old...
@Trippy Zero Yeah, it is official. It wasn’t a class project. It was a solo excursion of a 3D team in our student years. For early 2000s, made by students, it’s really good imo! It shows it’s age today.. But, this was rendered out over 8 months with our home PCs constantly chugging, made by 2 students and one teacher that were fans of the band. I look back on this production fondly ❤
No offence, but it's a little bit weird that you feel like this about this song. May I ask why? Don't get me wrong tho, I love this song and this band :)
This is one of those bands that try so hard to be different so all the cool kids will love them and create cliques that only a few people will get into because if you don`t like this you`re taste in music must be shit. I fucking hate these kinds of bands.
In my youth I took a trip
My first initial acid trip
And then it hit me like a ton of bricks
My eyes they quickly dilated
I began hallucinating at the tender age of seventeen
As I watched the TV my dogs speaking to me
Telling me I'm going insane
I recall a scene it's Halloween
And I am dressed as a drag queen
Peaking to the point of no return
I met a man, I shook his hand
He spoke I could not understand
He was covered in flies and afterbirth
The mandrills were singing
The bees they were stinging
As pink flamingos laid dead on the ground
I am the witness, I am Mohammed, I am the elephant man
These are strange days beautifully chaotic
In a burning metropolis
Tuning in and dropping out
Dancing Buddha's twist and shout
Buddhatomic Christ is love
Who resurrects the flower head
Cherishing the subtleties
Illusion is reality
Swimming the electric ocean
Souls at rest were set in motion
Martians perform autopsies
On cattle anal cavities
Frontal lobe lobotomies
Electric shocking chimpanzees
This cause of sorrow is desire
Ego fuels the selfish fire
Illusion is reality
Quantum synchronicity
Mandrills were singing
The bees they were stinging
As pink flamingos laid dead on the ground
Visions so clearly of Timothy Leary
The godfather of the movement
Lsd is the devil's litmus!
Fun fact! This song is about a real party that happened. I had family there who saw Todd dressed as a drag queen
He told me that story!!! Fact
Seeing this recommended in 2024 makes me happy.
Good song but wow they sound just like Mike Patton and Faith No More ( Love FNM)

It is official to my knowledge. This music video was on the DFDVD.

Same. I feel more home "there."
First time listening to this band, never heard of them before, seen a comment on Facebook that led me here. Amazing work.
Serious where the dead go to die vibes!
If ur names nick did metal in Stoke town reply
Back in my junkie days I used to play this song every time I did acid, it’s such a strange substance
I clicked this not knowing I was about to listen to a banger
This video is like if Deviantart and Live Journal had a child and it came to life
🤔

Hank steel
Please don't toss my salad
I really want to buy the El Creepo album

El PolkaDog seriously, you are a godsend to any Todd and Co fan. Thank you so much for all your uploads!
I do it for the fans and future fans. These guys deserve every bit of recognition they can get.
El PolkaDog seriously, thank you. Keep it going!
I hate to ask a silly question but what album is this on? I need to download this
I worked with them and hung out... very nice for east coast musicians
“In my youth I took a trip, my first initial acid trip. And it hit me like a ton of bricks” ain’t that the truth.
