Standing Outside A Broken Phonebooth With Money In My Hand

[cambro64]

"We sit outside and argue all night long about a god we've never seen but never fails to side with me..." There's the world problems summed up in a line. I say, "Imagine a world without gods to impress" (RDC)

I was a teenager when this song came out. I really loved the song then and I still kind of like this song to a degree now.

[seventhCrucifix]

Wow, I have not seen this video since 1996.. never knew what the name of this was. Crazy nostalgic

[envisionstar]

where does that like indian sounding song come from in the background in the beginning

[jaspersilence]

@envisionstar It's a BB King sample...Not sure what song.

[CorvusOfMellori]

WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS SONG HAVE TO DO WITH A PHONE BOOTH!!?

[polarmagneto]

@CorvusOfMe Tje song is about a baby that is newly born and very sick. The singer is wondering if he should keep putting money in though he may never be able to connect to the baby that cannot speak. The singer does not have a direct line to god and is confused surrounded by false idols and poor symbols of his religion. At the end the singer thinks contemporary religion is disconnected as well and baths in blood with no more soul than lions. Save babies at any cost! The song is profound.

[CorvusOfMellori]

@polarmagneto Wow, really? I totally didn't know that. That is a totally awesome thing to sing about!! Is there a definition out there somewhere that breaks down the lyrics?

[polarmagneto]

@CorvusOfMellori Not that I know of.

[pandatanto415]

@polarmagneto the song is about whatever you want it to be

[twosixteen]

@CorvusOfMellori It's a TARDIS... of AWESOME!



[MrRyanTheGiant]

love it

[diversereel]

so what im getting from the top comments is no one understands the lyrics?

[luveskittys]

do i like this or hate it?? Cant get it out of my head. I wonder how BB feels about it??

[notvmakehomercraz]

Good Song

[LOUakaGATEWAY]

Am I alive or thoughts that drift away?

Does summer come for everyone?

Can humans do as prophets say?

And if I die before I learn to speak

Can money pay for all the days I lived awake

But half asleep?

Just please think about the words. I remember hearing this song when I was 9 years old and for some reason it just stuck. Don't tell me everything doesn't have something subliminal about it.

[polarmagneto]

@LOUakaGATEWAY This excerpt is written from the new born babies perspective.

Es la única canción del cd que es excelente, las demás están malísmas. Esta canción dura aproximadamente 5.37, lástima que el video no termina hasta ese tiempo, porque el final realza la canción y le da una fuerza y feeling especial. Thanks a million for uploadind this video.

[TheAngryMarshmallow4]

the song is by primitive radio gods.

Oh my god.

This song gives me a rush of emotions.

I love it.

[IfItIsAllahsWill]

4:03 What is he whispering?

[likemyspritePink]

Congratulation MOTHER THERESA for your NOMINATION, PROMOTION and JOINMENT to LEAD the MOB as the new BOSS. Is about TIME you came out to know your TRUE desire of work-field, you should have joined earlier. 1:18 Assign Pope Benedict XVI as your sucessor.

[daftelmo1536]

i got lucky because i heard this song on the radio... doubt they will ever play it again though

[vergalechera]

1:18 Sunday comes and all the papers says ---> " All the governments of the world are happy that MOTHER THERESA JOINED The MOB and Happy with her new FULL TIME job ". The world of RACKETEERING is at your mercy and rule it with an IRON FIST. Theresa has the know how, the courage, motivation, influence and experience to lead the MOB to maximum sucess. Her chosen sucessor is Pope Benedict XVI . He is expected to lead even better when the power transfering occurs.

[MegaDragon1974]
