Lyrics by Alain Johannes
i run around,round and round the room
staring at floors from the ceiling
standing on walls
i fall my way out of my box
you smile
it's just wrinkling of the skin
save it
the time will come when we're heavy
let me crawl into your ears once more
let me undo what has done you good
let me give you a fistful of
my mind
i pick up the pieces,i pick up the pieces
my body lies all over the floor
but i still have my mind
-mind my have still i-
it's always cold,even in summer
when trust is shattered by green
an insecure fear of waht's
uncertain
yet sucess is sweeter when it's earned
so i gather my possessions
i re-arrange the order
i sit down and think
i sit down and plan
i'll be back tomorrow
with a new scam
-mind my have still i-

@TheLeatheryman Are you talking about Steve and Dino, the presenters?? yeah , amazing guys !!!! they present a lot of vids in the earlier community channels as PBS , you can see more vids with them on backporchvideos .

[13Sliver]

Marioag20 is right, flea was never even a member of what is this but of fear.

[desertblitzkrieg]

he was member some years of Anthymn(What Is This ), i know,before they signed , i put to make more easy the search

[soliloqy]

I wasn't a huge fan of the early chilis stuff, but how the hell couldn't he figure out which band had more potential... even when the chilis were just messin around...

[desertblitzkrieg]

@soliloqy , i think ,knowing to Alain and his carrier that this band had potential ,but sadly disolve.check the other songs in video responses

[trapped985]

i loved this video back when it first came out. watched it stoned on many a weekend. music videos today just don't compare with the "golden age" of the 80s and early 90s.

[uhf89]

i have this on a VHS and the strobe light in the background is so crazy, i could just imagine someone watching this on MTV and having a sezure

[NOSFERATUalu]

SEIIZUUUREEE!!! Love Alain though!

[THEGUITARSHAMMAN]

i think i just suffered a stroke 

[abledanger6]

sweet music video! hillel's got some good moves :)

[marehtseira]

Hillel gets a lot of screen time in this vid., prob more than anyone else

the vid. looks like it could be more recent than 1984

[imstoned6]

Hillel was the fucking man, wish he was still around to grace us with his glorious funk sounds

[wvloet3]

what an amazing great video ! I wish I was already born in 1984 !

[YeungyBassMasta]

to think that Alain was in Queens too
