Alice Cooper - Dead Babies

Shout Out to my friend Big Chief Nasty Lizard (Lizard5571) THANKS CHIEF FOR LOVING OUR GUTS!!!! A little Uncle Alice favorite from his album Killer. I went easy on it for viewers with delicate sensitivities. Alice was not advocating the killing of babies, but pointing out (in his way) the tragic lost of children due to parental neglect. Besides it being a GREAT FUCKING SONG!!!!!!!

chop up those baby dolls Alice...such controversy over this song originally when it came out. My parents had a COW. Killer as whole is so tight from beginning to end. Alice probably does more songs in concert to this day off Killer. Ballard of Dwight Frye, Yeah Yeah Yeah, Killer, Be My Lover, Under My Wheel, Halo of Flies, U Drive Me Nervous, my all fav Desperado, it's the whole album minus one or two..love the granddaddy of shock rock

I've got no doubt I said before that this was the first album I ever bought. This song is also the first time I ever heard of child abuse. I also know that I had to explain to everyone (especially my own mother) just what AC was talking about. Only proves to me that this song scares the capital "H" outta parents.

@EagleMedieval Absolutely,... capital H e double hockey sticks,....LOL

[harlee490]

it's about child abuse..unheard and not spoken about about in early "70s

damn this my favorite album, it came with hugh calendar of him hanging himself, which beat up still have. I have the original School's Out album that pops out as school desk and it the record came enclosed in women's panties, which Warner Bros. pulled soon after because of parents complaining, he was so "shocking" and was every parents nightmare. My parents were wrecked between Alice & "Queen Bitch" himself David Bowie ...I loved the music back then and i know telling my age!!

@toogawnjawn I admit that my first impression of the song was "wow cool man" I discover the true intent and meaning years later when I grew into the maturity to search out meaning that young teens lack,..LOL

[toogawnjawn]

@highwayrobberyrocker You can pass it down to Big Chief Nasty Lizard that after all these years his comment was the first and only person that got it the same way I did, it was like that Pat Benatar song hell is for children with the same intent in the meaning, just in different words, referring to child abuse.

@toogawnjawn My first Coop Lp was Love it to death, actually my sister bought it and didn't like it and gave it to me, I was hooked,...........

[toogawnjawn]

Killer was the first LP I had ever bought, I think this the main reason for AC to get his evil reputation with the main stream more than any other given song back in counter cultural revolution with this dead babies release just going over the top with shock value.
