Horses Lyrics
The boy was in the hallway drinking a glass of tea,
On the other end of the hallway a rhythm was generating,
Now boy was sliding up the hallway,
He merged perfectly with the hallway,
He merged perfectly in the mirror, in the hallway,
The boy looked at Johnny,
Johnny wanted to run,
But the movie kept moving as planned,
The boy took Johnny,
He pushed him against the locker,
He drove it in, he drove it home, he drove it deep in Johnny,
The boy disappeared,
Johnny's on his knees,
Started crashing his head against the locker,
Started crashing his head against the locker,
Started laughing hysterically when..
Suddenly.. Johnny.. gets a feeling.. he's being surrounded by..
Horses (x 4)
Coming in, in all directions,
White, shining, silver, studs,
With the nose, in flames,
He saw,
Horses (x 8)
On the other end of the hallway a rhythm was generating,

From the movie The Tracey Fragments ((really awesome movie)) Another song from the Tracey Fragments soundtrack by Broken Social Scene is Needle In The Head, which is my favorite BSS song. :]
This is actually a cover of the beginning of a Patti Smith song called "Land: Horses/Land of a Thousand Dances" from her album Horses. Her original song is over nine minutes long and awesome. BSS's cover is also awesome. I wish it were longer.
I think it's about either rage or an orgasm gathering inside "Johnny," and the horses are either the rage or the orgasm manifesting itself.
