A song for an AMV, maybe.

Post by CWR » Mon Mar 15, 2010 6:45 am

Pulp Fiction by Motion City Soundtrack

Smoke and mirrors and everything nice
I wasn’t married to the weekend, I was banging’ on the back end
Kamikaze and Miami Vice
She shook a few of my favorite things
Like cloak and dagger, see Seabury Quinn
I couldn’t keep it all together, I was spooking in the end zone
Arigato, go-go gadget arm
She only took me for 10,000 yen

It’s like a bad dream, something from the back of a magazine
Black and white and cheaply put together
Like a slasher film
I’m torn in opposite directions
The plot sucks but the killings are gorgeous

God damn these killings are gorgeous

Darkened corners at every bend
I wasn’t sucking down the poison; I was working on the QT
Shaky shaky, all over the world, she tried a cartwheel at every turn
The creepy crawlies, a case of the bends,
I had the martyrs that I bartered from the barons for the bandoleers
Karaoke, a feminine flaw, I had a feeling this was not the end

It’s like a bad dream, something from the back of a magazine
Black and white and cheaply put together
Like a slasher film
I’m torn in opposite directions
The plot sucks but the killings are gorgeous

And like a nightmare, covering the tracks that had brought you there
Paranoid and frozen in the heavens
Like a slasher film
I’m torn in opposite directions
The plot sucks but the killings are gorgeous

Cave in cave out
Nothing but nervous doubt
Waiting for the big bang to get me
[x2]
Waiting for the big bang

Wrapped in plastic, we all get the ends
She had to take it to the majors couldn’t keep it on the down low
Silly rabbit, you’ll dream till the end
Another stiff at the scene of the crime

It’s like a bad dream, something from the back of a magazine
Black and white and cheaply put together
Like a slasher film
I’m torn in opposite directions
The plot sucks but the killings are gorgeous

And like a nightmare, covering the tracks that had brought you there
Paranoid and frozen in the heavens
Like a slasher film
I’m torn in opposite directions
The plot sucks but the killings are gorgeous

God damn these killings are gorgeous


Seems like it could refer to any number of series, or even genres.

I anticipate being savagely flamed for some reason...

I've never heard this song, but the lyrics give me a Black Lagoon or Devil May Cry vibe...maybe even Ghost in the Shell. Could make for a great AMV! :D

Just a streaming version for evaluation - I share the opinion on this page about it being the best song on the album. :D

LOL

I was thinking the exact same thing! :up:
Almost as hard as fighting a Holy Paladin.
