The Toadies - Possum Kingdom (w/ Lyrics)

[j199101]

this came on today at work, and this dude that never talks just bursts out singing "DO YOU WANNA DIE?!?" and we went with it finishing the song off. it was epic

[nightprowler93]

I'm seeing these guys open for Social Distortion in a couple of months :D

[Repteil151]

@nightprowler93 Same here, Vancouver?

[nightprowler93]

@Repteil151 nope. memphis, tennessee

[UnseenTheGamer]

guitar hero 2

[ShinyZandera]

Great song.

[DKat263]

The 90's were definitely awesome. They will be missed...very creative bands like these guys set a gold standard

[OneCrayGuy89]

Nostalgia galore! I love this song.

[UmeboshiMe]

In a 1995 interview with RIP magazine, Toadies lead singer Todd Lewis said: "It's just a story I heard long ago; it's just a really cool, eerie lake, and some stuff I heard and some stuff I just make up. I tend to do that." Lewis went on to say that there was a real stalker in Tyler, Texas who became a folk hero:they started talking about this guy who was peeping in windows and started breaking into people's houses. He'd go out of his way to be seen and he's like tapping on windows.

[prizonmike2]

girl talk!

[gytannia]

I especially love the bass beat to this song. The rest is great too..been listening to it for about 10 years or so.

[SanctuaryReintegrate]

I miss riding around town in the hatchback, fumbling with the cassette deck, and listening to this on the radio.

I miss the 90s!

[audiosnag]

@SanctuaryReintegrate hell yes

[Zachbro39]

its crazy, i was just listening to Live's 1994 album throwing copper, then i got the itch to come to this song.. I miss the 90's music. But nothing stays the same forever eh?

[sdrawkcabsisiht12345]

this song is on the radio all the time! i finally found it!!

[711god]

i hate that this is associated with Twilight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[evo404]

@711god How is it associated with Twilight?

[GlamourGanjaGuy]

i know zep is a millions times better and there is no comparing the two, but this sounds very similar

vocally and musically, not as good but similar

[AbuBishir]

I had this song in my head all day. After all these years and reading the lyrics above it does seem to be about a vampire. (Not the gay Twilight vampire kind) but after reading more about it, it is about some killer/kidnapper in Texas around the Possum Kingdom Lake.

[SkullLikeASecret]

It's about a vampire right?

[SkullLikeASecret]

@SkullLikeASecret I'm being sarcastic

[TheSmokinlollie]

behind the boathouse Ill show u my big penis lol lyrics my boyfriend says X)

[lovablejuju]

Why are people talking about Twilight?

[4everdemented]

@lovablejuju Was it possibly in Twilight? I wouldn't know, because I have good taste in movies ;)

[Lanedude08]

@lovablejuju

The song is supposedly about vampires.

[madmanmerrill]

This song had been stuck in my head for the past month. It was destroying me...

[kempharry]

am i the only one that heard this in girl talk's all day?!

[danny30744]

naw ur not the only one...

[cometrally]

@kempharry That's what brought me here! I was like, "Woooah, that 'And I will treat you well, my sweet angel' sounds like it comes from an awesome song!"

[Ezmera]

OMG!! I only remembered the chorus and managed to find the song!! I'm sooooo happy right now!!! :)

[DixieTrixie101]

@Ezmera LOL, same here.

[DarkestofTimes]

By my side.....LOVE the guitar in this song.

[MrKenny1940]

Peace to KROQ in Los Angeles-Ah good times- Jed the Fist, Ricki Ratcman, Tami Heidi djs playing the good tunes of the early to mid 90's

[MrKenny1940]

this was hitting around 95 i think, in college reminds me a crush I had.

My blushing Bride, be my lover

[RugbyDemon6789]

first heard this on K-rock radio hella long time ago - back when kids still got there bands from word of mouth , the basic rock stations and music videos cos thats all ya had ..... classic example 90s alternative

[brucetrueasblue]

I always thought this song would inspire a sexy Thriller Horror. Sort of 'teen wolf' meets 'boxing helena' or Mullhuland drive

[koribeguile]

Team Jacob!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheRealScaraban]

@koribeguile If you're not being sarcastic I strongly dislike the cultural sphere you have aligned yourself with.

[koribeguile]

@TheRealScaraban Hi, I'm part Indian--or rather "Native American" for the PC anal-types--so don't read into my quip about "Team Jacob". I love this Toadies song, I'll play it usually twice when I remember to, it's sexy. Have fun and download more vids!!! Thx for your feedback

[koribeguile]

@TheRealScaraban Oh, and I also ride a motorcycle like "Jacob", except it's a Harley.

[MrsCopeland96]

Matt and Jeff Hardy sing this song in one of their hardy show videos.

Search It's a Hardy Party.  If you love this song you will like the video.

[Quentin649]

Those 5 dislikes are 5 people that don't wanna die. The 239 that DO like this video... Who knows?

[Familiarsoundslike]

Girl Talk bought me here...

[Russroxxx]

Seductive that is a good description of this song .Makes me think of a girl I know. I would like to take around the lake and show her my dark secret Russ Roxx

[CrazyAwsumScreamoEmo]

Everyone occasionally wants to kill some one they love. Especially when they hurt you O_O

[SKORPIONQUEEN6767676]

thumbs up if SHUT THE FUCK UPPPPPPPPPPPP! FAK.

[Introspective91]

Thumbs up if Edward Current aroused your interest in this song!

[sararudd92]

LOVE this song!

[MrDeCorey]

Great video this song rocks!

[discodan1002]

Are the children listening?

[outofAlog]

love the bass

[woodse23]

Thumbs Up for the Girl Talk remixed version :)

[1971SuperLead]

What a great great song.

[AlwaysIndependent]

Lol jokes on twilight rabid-fans, according to someone I know, this song was made about a horror movie where a screen writer killed women and kept them as an underwater garden in order to write better. XD Edward only wishes he's as creepy as that XD

[thewayitfeels]

@AlwaysIndependent HOW THE HELL DID THEY EVEN KNOW THIS SONG?! i thought they listened to justin beiber and shiz

[AlwaysIndependent]

@thewayitfeels

My moneys on the radio- it mostly plays crap, but it sometimes plays Possum Kingdom or Pepper.

[christ0pher420]

if someone asked me if they could turn me in to a vampire...im saying HELL YEA!!

[GaaraXshinobi]

90s music owned.

[liachel08]

holy crap i have been looking for this song for FOREVER, I couldnt remember the name of the song nor the band, iv been looking up "90's rock songs" ive found thousands of olsd favs that i had forgotten about but noone had this song sooo THANK YOU...LOL THA NKYOU

[mcarman150]

I agree with kittyprydex; this song is great; Edward is a wimp. The music is cool; real down.

[mcarman150]

I agree with kittyprydex; this song is great; Edward is a wimp.

[IkBeenVanHoff]

Reminds me Of the type of Relationship I had With My Ex.

[Sporeofthecentury]

 I LOVEE The Toadies!!! :D

[classiclistener01]

I'm not familiar with this band, but this is a great song - both music and lyrics. I believe that if Jim Morrison were still alive, he'd be writing songs much like this, and I'm fairly sure that these guys like the Doors. Thanks for posting this! :)

[phillies99]

love the riff

[BostintoTV4ReaL]

BEST SONG EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[UreiNeko]

I love this song. It creeps me right the f*** out, but I like it. <3

[Jakmehauf]

Kinda reminds me of the stuff they made back in the 90's... now those years... thats what I call REAL music.

[ShadowFalcon2343]

Boys this is real music. No shit band like mushroom head orcreed can over run this road junkie band {i mean that in a good way} Rock on Toadies

[ShadowFalcon2343]

boys... this is real music so the other bands like mushroom head and kill switch engage will face my revolution. and when their backs are up against the wall the toadies are gona finish them with THEIR HEADS ON A STICK!!!!!!!!! JKJKJK but really keep rock alive Toadies

[learningKnight]

Fucking fantastic song. Toadies rule, so help me Jesus.

[headbngr101]

[lostinspace47]

drhfwerpf

[rubenator85]

lmao ppl made a twilight video to this song!? dude it talks about raping a girl behind a lakehouse XD wow what dumbasses!

[milkster07]

Reminds me of high school

[spazerella84]

Vampires? This clearly has nothing to do with vampires... is that based solely on the 'dark hair, and soft skin' line? That's friggen dumb. It's about luring and rape, and I knew that from the first time i heard this song years ago. Fucking twilightfags ruin EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!

[chuckv1000]

@spazerella84 look spazeralla84 this is not about luring and rape ... it's about a guy taking a girl behind his barn to make a skulpture of her that is how she will not age and stay young watch the end of the video it clearly shows this ..

[weirdwicket]

WONDERFUL! U saved my day.

[greyunicorn98]

twilight vids with this can goeat penis.

[SnakeSkinCreations]

[FuckTheWorld17doja]

@simpsonNirvana94 cus ur getting paid by youtube

[simpsonNirvana94]

@FuckTheWorld17doja

if i am then how come youtube has never sent me a check?

[nirvanaman1129]

just learned how 2 play this becouse i heard it a long time ago and somehow forgott about it and what it was called but god willing rediscovered it and it was easy as hell 2 learn .. the bass rocks out at 2:35

[kittyprydex]

I friggin' hate that people made Twilight fanvids to this song. First of all, Edward is a wuss. He'd never act as slick and menacing as the guy in the song. This song is tough, it's creepy, and it's seductive. Edward seduced a not-so-bright girl by being a frikkin' vegan. He's not any of the things that this song brings to mind. UGH.

[simpsonNirvana94]

yeah don't make a good song lame

[ohxstarryxnights]

@kittyprydex

lol really ugh!

HATE twilight

&& thier fan girls

are annoying

(even tho im friends with a handfull of them) -.-

[AlmightyLordHatchett]

concurred

[nya6711]

LOL XD "Frikkin virgin". You forgot him bein a pedophile ^^

[animeJAKass86]

@kittyprydex Quite true, but I can see where some might make the connection to twat-light.

[lakeoffire1993]

@kittyprydex edward needs his ass kicked lol

[Jakmehauf]

@kittyprydex Wait, what? Who made a fan vid for that fag? They put it in the movie?!??

[PlayBeyond14]

@kittyprydex \

I hate twilight shit period

[lightningthehamster]

@PlayBeyond14 same here omfg -_-

[AMBVLNTideal]

@kittyprydex hey if edward can seduce anyone by being a vegan that skills.

[vanderbeek92]

@kittyprydex this song isnt even about vampires its about the possum kingdom lake murders in texas.

[FloganFly]

@kittyprydex

it ruins everything for me : |

[vaarluukl]

@kittyprydex it isntt even remotely about vampires is whats so fuckin bad about it..and the every1 can glean their own meaning is bullshit...fuckin fankids takin somethin and w/o knowin what its really about just bein generally douchie presumptous and...well just fuckin douchie...and yea i know i said douchie already

[liachel08]

@kittyprydex I second that! If they HAVE to do a vanvids with vampires why not Damon Salvatore he is lethal evil and ruthless, but HOT... unlike ugly hairy Edward

[art4thecure1]

@kittyprydex want to see a fun anti-twilight movie. check out mine. the only one that has edward frying ;)

[LEXX9988]

@kittyprydex I agree. this song was made in a simpler time when there wasn;t gay movies like twilight. the 90's were cool, i'd hate to associate this 90's classic with a lame thing like twilight.

[Sirtyler77]

@LEXX9988 i like this 100 times! fuk twilight!

[ScrewThinkingOfAName]

@kittyprydex I agree with you but what's wrong with vegans? D; 

[SimonsHappyToxicCake]

@kittyprydex So true 

[jkiddo223]

@kittyprydex i always thought of it more as a Satan thing than an Edward thing...I mean, he's too much of a pussy to ever say anything in this song anyways.

[MDntasticMA]

8====D~~~~

[Oriedo]

This is a good video and song foreal.''The Toadies''.''Possum Kingdom''.

[simpsonNirvana94]

[wachutalkinboutbitch]

[simpsonNirvana94]

i know great song huh?

[rock8942]

their something aboout this song. i like it

[simpsonNirvana94]

this song has NOTHING to do with that gay twilight move, it's just the a song.

[simpsonNirvana94]

wtf are u talking about?

[andyquitbefor]

this is a mad good song but... fuck twilight.. does this song have anything to do with it?

[ookumae]

WTH...Twilight?!? This song came out in 1992...and has NOTHING to do with vampires.

[simpsonNirvana94]

who rated this a one!?
