Lyric of the Week: Splatter Splatter (Moxy Früvous)

Lyric of the WeekHappy Halloween.

Enjoy Splatter Splatter by Moxy Früvous (from 1999’s Thornhill)

Kids in their PJs, big bowl of nachos
Another perfect day in Rhododendron Park.
The sun is shining, now dad’s reclining
Roll down the blinds to watch a movie in the dark.

Some buxom ladies, a Lamborghini
Shadowy motives in a shadowy land.
Some idle chatter, then Splatter Splatter
Cue soundtrack music from the up-and-coming band.

This is (This is)
The best (Just a movie)
I’ve ever seen (She’s just a teen)
I want to see it again and again and again.

She’s babysitting and doing homework.
A sudden phone call from the senior quarterback.
She loves attention, she craves attention
He’s got a present for her from her daddy’s shack

She getting cozy, the window rattles
A few allusions to last summer’s episode.
The windows shatter, then Splatter Splatter
What could be more perfect than to see her head explode?

This is (This is)
The best (Just a movie)
I’ve ever seen (She’s just a teen)
I want to see it again and again and again.

Ahhhhh Ahhhhhh Ahhhhh
She’s just a teen
I want to see it again and again and again.

We came from monkeys, we once were hunted
Perhaps we recognize that haunted human face
Maybe the suburbs are just far too antiseptic
Kids need some splatter splatter messing up the place.

This is (This is)
The best (Just a movie)
I’ve ever seen (She’s just a teen)
I want to see it again and again and again and again.
Again and again and again.

This is (This is)
The best (Just a movie)
I’ve ever seen (She’s just a teen)
I want to see it
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
