Live As Hell


This tape wasn't actually released by the Spooky Kids, but it was released by the radio station WYNF with the band's participation. It featured the six songs performed live in the studio on April 26, 1992, plus the bonus track of "Thift" (from the unreleased Thrift demo), which hadn't yet been released on Refrigerator. Four more songs from this session also appeared on Refrigerator, the only two that didn't were "Misery Machine" and "Learning To Swim". The version of "Lunchbox" on this release is easy to distinguish from other recordings because it incorporates lyrics from the Beatles' "Come Together" and "Helter Skelter." There's also an alternate version of this show that was recorded off the radio, which does not include "Thrift" but does have some short interviews and on-air identification.

It's interesting to note that the Special Thanks section is identical to the on on Family Jams.

Suicide Snowman

If I had time to kill the world I'd try
Oh no, but I'm busy, killing me

I don't have time to build a suicide
Because the snowman melts in spring
The striped girls will not be coming back
In the summer
They run from me
May!

I don't have time to even say good-bye
We are dying, as winter leaves
Spring!

Snow melts in my lawn and I am free, yeah
Corn cob pipe and a button, nose, yeah

Puddled in the grass two lumps of coal
Snow melts in my lawn and I am...
If I had time to kill the world I'd try
But I'm busy killing what's in me
I don't have time to even say good-bye
We are dying as winter leaves
Spring!

Snow melts in my lawn and I am free, yeah
Corn cob pipe and a button, nose, yeah

Learning To Swim

I wanna be the fish
I like the way he swims
I bend my arms to fins
Ego scales my skin

I grab a sharp stick
And I cut my gills
The water rushes in

I'm too young
To live this life

I wanna be the fish
I like the way he swims
I grab a sharp stick
I'm too young to live
Inside this life

They want me to stay
This life I cannot feign
They want me to stay
This life I cannot feign

My Monkey

He wear no shoe shine
He got toe jam football
He want monkey finger
He shoot coca-cola
He said "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
I'm the king of this whole planet
The world of madness is a lot bigger than the world of sane


I had a little monkey
I sent him to the country and I fed him on gingerbread
Along came a choo choo
Knocked my monkey koo koo
And now my monkey's dead
At least he looks that way
But then again don't we all
Sanity is a little box

I make music, people are affected by the music I make
That doesn't mean I direct the traffic
That I put a knife in somebody's hand
Tell them to go kill somebody

I had a little monkey
I sent him to the country and I fed him on gingerbread
Along came a choo choo
Knocked my monkey koo koo
And now my monkey's dead
Sanity is a little box
Poor little monkey
Sanity
Break it down

Do you don't ya want me to love ya?
I'm comin' down fast but I'm miles above ya
Tell me tell me tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer

I'm the Pope, I'm ten times the pope, I'm a fifty times the Pope
But I'm the Pope in the hills and in the mountains

We are our own wicked gods
With little g's and big dicks
Sadistic constantly inflicting a slow demise

I had a little monkey
I sent him to the country and I fed him on gingerbread
Along came a choo choo
Knocked my monkey koo koo
And now my monkey's dead
Sanity is a little box
Sanity is a little box

I had a little monkey
I sent him to the country and I fed him on gingerbread
Along came a choo choo
Knocked my monkey koo koo
And now my monkey's...dead

I'm the king of this whole planet
I'm the king of this whole planet
I will rule this whole world

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Iddity bitty birdy feet
Me with out my spoon...
Sanity is a little box

Misery Machine

Uh oh, why is the motor making that strange noise?
I don't know Velma, and I don't like it
Where are we?
I don't know...Oh my gosh!


Man in the front got a sinister grin
Careen down highway 6-6-6
We wanna go, crush the slow
As the pitchfork bends and the needles grow
My arms are wheels
My legs are wheels
My blood is pavement
We're gonna ride to the abbey of thelema to the abbey of thelema
Blood is pavement
Blood is pavement

The grill in the front is my sinister grin
Careen down highway 6-6-6
We wanna go, crush the slow
As the pitchfork bends and the needles grow
My arms are wheels
My legs are wheels
My blood is pavement
We're gonna ride to the abbey of thelema to the abbey of thelema
Blood is pavement

When you ride your ridden when you ride your ridden
We'll ride you to hell, until you are dead
We'll ride you to hell, until you...


I am fueled by filth and fury
Do what I will I will hurry there, over there

My blood is pavement
My blood is pavement

Thrift

I sit here all knowing
Knowing nothing here at all, yeah
My cuts spread slower
Pig hands reach into my sides, yeah
I hate this life you give me
I give you hate you live for me, yeah
I love the pain you give me
This hurting feels like love to me, yeah
They go down town down town
They go

Down inside
Down inside
Down inside
They go down town down town
They go down town to sell
Down town down town
They go down town to sell

My body hangs on hooks
A cloth to society, yeah
Your dollars wet my skin
Makes me paper mache thrift, yeah
I hate this life you give me
I give you hate you live for me, yeah
I love the pain you give me
This hurting feels like love to me, yeah
They go down town down town
They go

Down inside
Down inside
Down inside
They go down town down town
They go down town to sell
Down town down town
They go down town to sell
To sell

I hate this life you give to me
I hate this life you give to me
I hate this life you give to me
I hate this life you give to me
I hate this life you give to me
I hate this life you give to me
