Zombie

[timepiececlock]

Huh. "Zombie" by The Cranberries is on the radio.

Back in 6th grade, I would listen to this song on repeat for hours.

God, listening to it now, it must have annoyed the fuck out of my parents.

That's ok.

**

Another head hangs lowly,
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...

Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.

It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...

Hi there. I was just perusing gwynnega's friends page and came across your entry. I just had to concur with bailunrui that I love this song too.

Back in, I want to say '94(ish), I would roll down the window of my tiny car, turn the volume way up, and push the pedal down as far as my courage would let me when this song came around on my "favorites" mixed tape. There was also the singing at the top of my lungs, but we won't go there. *g* Ah, the memories...

:g: I still at the top of my lungs in the car. Funny thing though, I've never seen many boys who did that. I wonder if it's a girl thing.

Buffy (The Freshman):

Xander: (Looks at Oz.) Do we hug sing at the top of our lungs?
Oz: I think we're too manly.

=D
