Butt-Plug… Ooops I Mean… PlugRut (Song Lyrics)
Maybe it is my infatuation with the female ass but when I first heard the title of this track… I swear I heard the words butt-plug. But no… the title of the 7th song of the album is PlugRut. What the fuck does that mean? Uhhhh Schrecker explained it to me once, but I must have been too pissed off and / or drunk to remember. I had just finished the previous title track “Broken” and we wanted to start playing live. Zasta suggested we work out Plugrut because it is a little less chaotic then PornoZING! and we could start doing some 30 minute live shows. I learned it in a rehearsal with the guys and we were ready to go.
Since I knew the song we wanted to track that one right away and release a 3 song EP as a sort of teaser to the album. This is the last song that was recorded with my Mesa Boogie amp. Fuck I hated the way that thing was playing with my head. We had done a live show in Ste-Julie and it crapped out on me at the beginning of the gig.
I could not hear myself on stage but could faintly hear myself in the house system. We all have our issues. My thing is this: I have this belief that inanimate objects are out to get me… That amp would work fine in the studio and then KERPLOW… bitch would not work in live situations. I finished the track and days after we were playing at this grade school in the gymnasium. Sound check… hmmmm… the lights are on but nobody’s home. I wanted to go for a 3 pointer with it at the other end of the gymnasium. I did the gig with an amp Schrecker had at the studio… luckily someone that was coming to the show lived close-by and brought it for us.
After that gig I complained to this guy named Shawn at Mesa Boogie in California and sent it in to get it fixed for free. Once I got it back I sold it… I did not even bother to turn it on and try it out. I was done with it and I got something waaaaaaaaaaaaay better.
So yeah… the recording of the song…. uhhh well…. it went pretty quickly. It has a punk feel in the chorus and I never really played punk stuff. I actually do not even listen to any. The thing with TGON is that nothing is really specific in genre. The song has a punk feel to it… but it has a little TGON twist that makes it sound different. That’s one of the many things I like about this band and our music. We can do anything musically and it will fit in context to everything we have done previously or anything to come in the future.
Hey… we might even write a song about throwing inanimate objects and call it Butt-plug.
Plugrut
lyrics by Schrecker
Surrender
It’s your time tonight
Nothing by starlight
Holding you downLet yourself go
What’s holding you back
Let yourself go
Who’s holding her…No gravity
You can’t face this
The world won’t turn
Cuz you know she’s with himWhatever
It’s her time tonight
Nothing but starlight
Holding her down…No hiding place
The world won’t turn
Not until we fix thisThis is the end time tonight
Nothing but starlight holding…
Nothing is left at allFigures of eight…
What do you care?
We don’t have a prayer!
What do I care?
Why should I?I have got this feeling
That her feet don’t touch the ground
I don’t know what she’s saying
But I love to watch her mouth
Heaven dies upon her lips…I have got this feeling
That it’s happening again
I don’t know what she’s saying
But she’ll be saying it to him.
I don’t know what she’s doing
But she’ll be doing it to him.
This goddamn feeling
That every thing must end.Give it all up!
Let yourself go
What’s holding you back?
Let yourself go
What’s holding you down?
We’re out of control
What’s holding you back?
Let yourself go
Who’s holding you?No gravity
I will fix this
Then the world
Will spin againHeaven surrendered tonight
It’s nothing but starlight
Nothing at all.It’s happening again
I don’t know what she’s saying
But I love to watch her mouth
I don’t know what she’s doing
Whatever and ever.
