The Camper Velourium I: Faint of Hearts

I don't think this about Al raping Newo, but there is an element of Al being a rapist/murder. Actually, after listening to this song repeatedly, I've come to the conclusion that it's Al confessing his past crimes to Newo. Intially, he felt that he could trust her becasue she seemed so "well-behaved". But after seeing Newo's horrified reaction, ("Did somebody take your tongue?"), Al thinks that she had tricked him into trusting her and is angry. He feels betrayed by her because he cared enough to admit that he was/is a "monster". The ending reference to the gun may be Al thinking of revenge OR Newo's belief that she must protect herself from Al till Claudio returns for her.

Actually, Apollo, you are right. Throughout the song at the end of the chorus they are saying "my love" but at the end of the song they say "so I bid to you goodnight, tonight, sleep tight, my gun" I was also wondering what the significance of that was.

I really don't think that Al is raping Newo in this song, though I believe that there is some element of sex. Al is nuts, and he's the type of dude that would be weirdly obsessed with his gun. Through most of the song, I think it's him talking to his gun. "With my wanting just to hold your neck in my arms and feel me squeeze No I'm not going to give you what you want so if you please" His gun is "wanting" to shoot Newo in this part, this is what I see, but part of Al is sort of loving this girl, and he really doesn't want to. All of the touching and what not is to the gun. Newo is WAY more than freaked out (did somebody take your tongue) She's terrified to speak. I'd been freaked if I was kidnapped (I believe that she was kidnapped in the song Three Evils, right before the Crowing. That is where Claudio is told that he's the Crowing, and then in Blood Red Summer, what did I do to deserve this--But THEN realizes that Newo has been kidnapped and is kind of "OH HELL NO!"--if you get my point, and starts kicking a**) and given to a weirdo. So yeah, Al isn't raping her. I sort of think that there is sex though, thus sealing off the whole love thing. Where is says "The shift as you stretch your legs You were so well behaved You were so well Who taught these tricks that make...you were so well behaved" Like, who taught you those tricks in bed, you were such an innocent chic?

And then, because he's crazy, he then says goodnight not only to his "love" (which might have, at the beginning, also refered to his gun) but also to his gun. Remember, "Good eye, sniper" in A Favor House Atlantic. Al shoots people. He really loves his gun.

At this point in the story, we have the group of Claudio, Ambellina, and Sizer. They need to make their way to the House Atlantic on the world of Silent Earth to face Wilhelm Ryan. However, they are stranded on the world of Godder Damm.

To get off the planet, they need the help of a character named Al, because he has a ship that can get them off-planet.

However, this song is strictly about Al and his backstory. He is a serial killer who kills women that remind him of an ex girlfriend (or possibly ex wife). Her name is Luci. He is obsessed with befriending women that remind him of Luci, and then killing them.

This song is just about him killing women.

He wants to "hold their neck" and have them feel him squeeze. He asks if someone "took their tongue" (because they can't speak while being strangled). As he's strangling them, they struggle, "stretch their legs."

The "Coo Coo Cachoo" can be explained by the phrase itself being nonsense. When it was used in "I Am the Walrus" it was used purely because it didn't make sense, just like the entire song. In this song, its use only emphasizes the insanity of the character, Al. It's that simple.

Also, this song is not about Al's gun at all. He rarely used a gun at all to begin with. They mention the word "gun" once in this song, and that does not warrant the song being about a weapon at all. In the rest of the song, he uses the term "my love," meaning the woman he is killing. In the last line, the word "love" is changed to "gun" because the woman is essentially the trigger that sets him off. She is the catalyst, or the "gun" that sets him off.

Is the girl ikkin newo? The point of view sounds like the view of someone w. a prison-guard-ish job over this girl whoever she is... it's really confusing haha but even if it's not a prison-guard-ish person it's someone who's got a creepy way of thinking..

People say newo ikkin is actaully nikki owen. But thats all i know about her

newo ikkin is caludio's (2nd of Coheed/Cambria's 4 kids) love. nikki owen is the real claudio's ex from what ive read.

for some reason half my posts dont even show up =\

i'm not too sure cuz they dont show the lyrics word for word but the very last line of this song it sounds like he says "tonite, sleep tight, my gun" i dont know if this is correct or not but thats what it sounds like he says, i'm not to sure as to what the significance of that would be either

Actually, apoll02113, he says "sleep tight my love". Im pretty sure its "al" talking to "newo".
