Lyrics:
Hi! My name is Chris... and um... I'm not your ordinary person.
I like movies, music, video games, and hanging out with friends.
I'm sooooooo far from ordinary...
Miles away... like Corona!
We're livin' in a John Hughes movie
Though some call us the new 'Red, Red, Kroovy'
The moloko and blood have mixed together
And formed The Screaming Pink
I'm askin' you once
And I'm askin' you twice
Can I get my shrimp lo mein
With a side of fried rice?
There's fifty-million people dyin' every day
Everyone of them in a brand new way
And when the process of it all overlaps
We're gonna see society collapse
As the rates of suicide
Are on the rise worldwide
We're runnin' out of space to run
And of places to hide
The following is based on true events
Which documents a point of time in my life
And out of respect for the persons involved
The names have been changed, and all the facts rearranged
So... I hear all your heroes died, or maybe they lied
But it's kinda weird how they all disappeared
And no one really knows for sure if they met their end
Oh, but what a perfect point in time for me to come in
I got the hair of a skunk, man. Stripe
And I be walkin' like a rattlesnake. Slide
And the flies buzzin' around my head create the illusion of a halo. Uh huh
And the dark circles under my eyes compliment dark clouds in the circling skies
And I've been cursed to nine years of madness
Nine years of madness! Whoo! Argh!
I'm a black mage: level 73
And I'm warnin' you man, not to fuck with me
Thunder and lightning: don't get caught in the storm!
I don't sting like a bee, but I can summon a swarm
And I came to Earth in my astro-car
And I am off to be a superstar
Although I'm not really smiling, it's just the way
That I am putting all of my teeth on display
And oh yeah, man, I'm an insect
Yeah, man, I'm an insect
Living on an anthill.....
Commentary:
Full title: Nine Years of Madness (The Introduction of The Hybrid)
The unfortunate thing about the death of physical media is this album ain’t gonna make sense!!!! Inspired by Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire, which in order to know the full and complete story required you to read the novel, the comic, and the N64 game! I wasn’t going to go that hard with it, but I wanted the album liner to have a supplementary story going on, so you could look and read while you listened.
"Nine years" is in reference to "Five Years", the opening track of Bowie's "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars".
Within the story, set in 2006, the narrator, suffering delusions of grandeur, fancies himself to be an androgynous, rock n roll extraterrestrial, and has believed since age 18 that the world will end in 2012, thus joining the 27 club.
In real life, nine years has another meaning: I didn't record this until 2015, nine years after I'd written it.
Nine Years Of Madness (The Introduction of The Hybrid), Words 2006 and music 2006 and 2015 by yours truly, with the exception of the opening featuring a rendition of "Also sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30" by Richard Strauss (1896), and the ending featuring "Johnny Comes Marching Home" by Patrick Gilmore (1863)
