Mood for Trouble

Soundgarden

My mood was in full swing
My mood was in full swing
I wanted to be free
Free to watch the hail
I did not want to hear
The perfect thing to say
Dying to squeeze out
The ugly truth for everyone to hear
I did not want to fight
I did not want to kill
I wanted to be real
I wanted to believe
That I was not the only one alive

    General CommentThis has got to be the coolest song I have ever heard, damnit! It had just got this whole groove that make me want to get in the car, drive out to Big Bear and pick up a carton of Cheap-O-Eggs, and then take them and turn them loose all over the parking lot of that fuckin McDonald's where I used to work.

    General CommentAbout a person who feels like he's the only one out there, and feels that he was the only one who wasn't a slave to rigid laws and rules, so he wants to go stir some shit up.

    General CommentVery atmospheric song. It takes me to a time and place that I've never been to. Like a dream.

    General CommentI am almost certain that the line "Free to watch the hail" is actually "from rituals so stale."

    Does anyone know what the lyrics are during the bridge?
