Plan 9 Channel 7 Lyrics
And offers that he stay a while
Two hearts that beat as one
And eyes that hardly ever saw the sun
Hollywood babbles on
She lays a wreath of lilies on his grave
His flame gone along with the love he never gave
Not to be seduced by those red lips
Two dimensional comic clips
Hollywood babbles on
on and on and on and on and...
Too close but two worlds away
Plan 9, hello may
Too close but two worlds away
They say
And offers that he stay a while
Two hearts that beat as one
And eyes that hardly ever saw the sun
Hollywood babbles on
She lays a wreath of lilies on his grave
His flame gone along with the love he never gave
Not to be seduced by those red lips
Two dimensional comic clips
Hollywood babbles on
on and on and on and on and...
Too close but two worlds away
Plan 9, hello may
Too close but two worlds away

well, this song is based on Vampira, a 50s horror actor and the supposed lover of james dean. Dave Vanian was obsessed with her, and made this song.
You can find the music videEtiqutteo for it on the 25th Anniversey addition of Machine Gun Etiquette, It features the band playing on the Smash it Up video set, Vanian sitting on a chair watching vampira and walking with her, and the whole band and their equipment playing in a feild behind piles of burning leaves and sticks. very unqiue.
about the movie w/ the same name.... also check out vampira by the misfits...
er... always call it plan 9 channel 7 cus of this song... its plan 9 from outerspace... damn damned fucken w/ my mind... and really more about vampira then the movie...
to clarify, it's about the woman who played the lead role in "plan 9 from outerspace" -- widely considered to be the worst movie ever made -- and who went on to attempt a more serious career on channel 7 as some sort of television personality.
oh, and the lyrics are "her domain" rather than "hello may."
This song is Dave Vanian's ode to the fabled love affair between 50's horror starlet Vampira and pop-culture icon James Dean. In my opinion it's one of the best off Machine Gun Etiquette.
Such an awesome song. I love the chorus. The Damned are amazing.
great music. great emo confusing at times. no need 4 understanding tis a great song
Haunting verses them with the echo and all man the damned are good who would've thought it not at all like New Rose.
