Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Soda pop-popping soldiers with their eyes
Everybody wakes up with their eyes
Men and their knuckles will win
Because men and their knuckles give in
To the pounding flesh in the rot masquerade
Like dinks that piss in a piss-piss parade
Souls that rots in soldiers with their eyes
Everybody gonna freeze up from their eyes
You and your ribs will win
And the constant right corporals will win
The peacocks gleam in the bush parade
And the burning glaze portraits are a flashing charade
Soda pop-popping soldiers with their eyes
Everybody gonna wake up with their eyes
The gathering at Sparrow Hills
Occurred in the valley's dank, dank thighs
Hulls back to their boats
Everybody wakes up with their eyes
Men and their knuckles will win
Because men and their knuckles give in
To the pounding flesh in the rot masquerade
Like dinks that piss in a piss-piss parade
Souls that rots in soldiers with their eyes
Everybody gonna freeze up from their eyes
You and your ribs will win
And the constant right corporals will win
The peacocks gleam in the bush parade
And the burning glaze portraits are a flashing charade
Soda pop-popping soldiers with their eyes
Everybody gonna wake up with their eyes
The gathering at Sparrow Hills
Occurred in the valley's dank, dank thighs
Hulls back to their boats

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Great song, probably much symbolism and meaning. Surprised no one else has yet to comment.
