John has such an amazing and distinct voice, it’s a shame Marcy Playground never could live down Sex and Candy. They sadly got put into the one hit wonder category and have never gotten the respect or attention they deserve.
"Puppets of hay and a king for sale" Cries Jolly Roger The jester dance the 'joker strut' In the court of rebel sodville Bring wine for the knights in crime armor As time beats away and Bring 'em all shattered glass n flowers In hopes that they all might stay One more day "Put a jack for hire on the cold wheel of fire" Cries dolly dagger With a ripple hot in the wing iron pot In the court of rebel sodville Bring wine for the queen in red courage As time beats away And she smiles as they drift past her humor and hopes They all might stay One more day "What a master of power in the cold ivory tower" Cried Sully Stephen As a snowdrift night brings a chilling bite To the court of rebel sodville Bring wine for the knights in crime armor As time beats away And wiling in an acid bath of hours We hope that they all might stay One more day
Wuhuuu - "like" no 250... out of almost 48k views.... I just really really do NOT get why this band hasn't got more audience. I mean, even with Sex & Candy as a one-hit-wonder, more people should have dicovered all the other insanely great songs and lyrics MP have written. Like this one. I can only dream of ever seeing MP live one day. Woz - Please tour Europe as soon as the planes takes of again :)
The drummer appearing in this video has been replaced. The new MP drummer (Dylan's brother in law) brings even greater talent & energy to the band. Never fear!
DUDE!! wats up with that crowd. their like robots this is Marcy Playground! not Dr. Phill! You guys should be honored that their even standing in front of you
@d_chatz8353 I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that they are touring again. I saw them last year June 2nd at the Ludlow Garage near Cincinnati Ohio. I was lucky enough to get 1 of the 2 guitar picks that Wozniak threw into the crowd!
In the 90's just $2 would get me into a spiffy music show, AND I'd have a nickel change for a soda. Also, policemen are getting shorter and uglier, and why can't I find a toffee shop anywhere for a lovely packet of Werther's Originals.

There are no words for how much I love this band.
Christina Tyndall same dog
Marcy Playground.. one of the most underrated, underappreciated bands ever.
These are one of the few bands that sound the same live as they do on their recordings.
One of the greatest songs ive heard.
From the most underated band of all time.
In the same league as nirvana and pearl jam
And he wrote it when he was 15!!

Fresh Prince Of Darkness I no it sux
"Puppets of hay and a king for sale"
Cries Jolly Roger
The jester dance the 'joker strut'
In the court of rebel sodville
Bring wine for the knights in crime armor
As time beats away and
Bring 'em all shattered glass n flowers
In hopes that they all might stay
One more day
"Put a jack for hire on the cold wheel of fire"
Cries dolly dagger
With a ripple hot in the wing iron pot
In the court of rebel sodville
Bring wine for the queen in red courage
As time beats away
And she smiles as they drift past her humor and hopes
They all might stay
One more day
"What a master of power in the cold ivory tower"
Cried Sully Stephen
As a snowdrift night brings a chilling bite
To the court of rebel sodville
Bring wine for the knights in crime armor
As time beats away
And wiling in an acid bath of hours
We hope that they all might stay
One more day
His tone is so good. And the solo is sick.
Really great song. I came across this album with no clue how good this band is/was. Hooked right out of the gate.
Just saw them live on a whim opening for Toad, had to look up this tune when I got home...love this one, a very good song
man this band is like a WAY MORE intense nirvana i love them
Saw them live last night with everclear. They played this song and it sounded even better than before. So underrated
Wow! this is the music with sense...I love this band..
Marcy playground. Awesome band... wish they would tour South Africa
I'm afraid that chance is long gone:(
This song is awesome. MP is such an amazing band.
You should definitely get the album Shapeshifter, every song on it is pretty awesome.
Here in 2020!! Well, multiple times now in 2020.
under rated great band
4:57 - 5:10 , the longest and most beautiful vocal note crescendo in all-turnative music 🤎🐌🥭🤘
