The world is a vampire...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9a1OtHoJvg
Smashing Pumpkins

...sent to drain

secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
and what do i get, for my pain
betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
even though i know-i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old Job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

now i'm naked, nothing but an animal
but can you fake it, for just one more show
and what do you want, i want to change
and what have you got
when you feel the same
even though i know-i suppose i'll show
all my cool and cold-like old Job

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

tell me i'm the only one
tell me there's no other one
jesus was an only son
tell me i'm the chosen one
jesus was an only son...for you

despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage

tell me i'm the only one
tell me there's no other one
jesus was an only son...for you
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved
and i still believe that i cannot be saved

6. Someone with good taste in music, obviously.
Actually, Bullet with Butterfly Wings isn't really one of my favorite Pumpkins songs. But anyone who cites to a Pumpkins songs in a thread is good in my book, and gets full immunity from the Shatner from me.

7. I'm sorry I instinctively said "William"
When everybody knows his parents put "Billy" on his birth certificate.

8. Does Billy Corgan even have a birth certificate?
Or is it all a massive fraud perpetrated on the American people to hide the fact he is actually from Kenya? I demand to see a birth certificate!

12. Billy Corgan was around before you were born....he will remain around long, long after you die.
That basically sums it all up.

9. I now think of this song as the Whale Wars theme.
It was a good choice.

14. A great welcome home song!
Glad to see it bumped. I quit my job today over Gestapo manuverings... then was convinced to reconsider by the end of the day.

So, I'm still just a rat in a cage :)
