Ted, Just Admit It...

It's about the way that we are de-sensatized to everything, and that news footage of people being shot and blown up is no more real to us than watching Friday the 13th.

Hvusnme is right, the quote at the start is from an interview with Ted Bundy, and Jane's addiction have used this, because at his trial, he claimed that watching pornography and violent images on TV had warped his mind and caused him to comit his crimes (it didn't work, he was executed for 28 murder convictions, lol), but this basically ties in with the theme of the song.

I think i get a general picture of this song, but i wanted to know if someone could elaborate.

Great song

it's about ted bundy

I think Perry once said he wrote this song after watching a video about serial killers while taking acid, and that actual words aren't so much about Bundy, more like the divide between good and bad - sex and violence.

this is jane's stairway to heaven............great stuff

lol i wonder if ted bundy ever heard this song before he was executed in 1989?

title incorrect, same song as Ted just admit it,

if you want to know exactly what this song is about read the 'only living witness' it's one of the most foremost accounts of what Bundy did. The thing in this song that creeps me the fuck out is the multiple refrences to cameras/snapshots. I don't know if JA knew it at the time of writing this song, but Bundy, about a week before he was killed, confessed to taking polaroids of some, or all of his victims. the pictures have yet to be found

Its about on the surface of course ted bundy but its about become so jaded that nothing is a big deal anymore and all you want to do is fuck and kill

i dont understand the lines,

I am the killer of people You look like a meatball I'll throw away your toothpick And ask for your giveness

can someone please elaborate
