Song Title: Tinnitus Lyrics: When Disney came to Scotland Shooting 'Pixel Claymores' I wanted the role of the rotten Villain Rob McMurdo But Tinnitus auditioned first Some weird DJ from Boston He's from WZBC And he doesn't look much like a Scotsman The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker The weaver, the cheever, the bastard Damn it and blast 'em, they said they had cast them And swept me under the carpet Tinnitus replied in a synthesised voice When I dared him to fight me at Tekken The clash of our claymores rang through the glens And on 90.3 FM And was it for real or was it a dream When I buried my steel in his belly? Tinnitus fell, the director yelled 'Cut!' then they put it on telly The Campbells are coming, I'm long in the tooth Was it because my hair is all gone? I sit on the set in a sporran and kilt My name is Winterblossom Gall and wormwood under my tongue Bonnie Prince Charlie's an arsehole My friends are dead, it's cold and wet My name is Rob McMurdo I'll no be taken for granted And I'll no be turned away I'll be back! Band / Artist's Name: Momus Web Site: http://www.imomus.com/ Album Name: Stars Forever Year Released: 1999 Self Produced This Item Also Listed Under: Song Titles earTunes Notes: From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stars_Forever "The album Stars Forever (Le Grand Magistery 61665-60010-2) (1999) was created by Momus partly as a way of raising money from his legal costs, the most recent lawsuit filed by Wendy Carlos but dismissed, and partly to further his exploration of postmodern music making, identity, and aesthetics. Momus wrote thirty songs about every person or group who commissioned a song at the price of $1,000. "Patrons" include artist Jeff Koons and two year old animator/superhero Noah Brill. Stars Forever also features the winners of a karaoke contest started on the album The Little Red Songbook (1998) which featured the song "Walter Carlos", which postulated that Wendy could travel back in time to marry Walter, and led to Carlos' lawsuit." So who was Tinnitus written for? From www.imomus.com: "Paul Cheevers, aka Tinnitus, is an electronic musician and DJ from the Boston, Mass area. He makes ambient / illbient music, is a huge Eno fan, thinks of himself as a bit of a cyborg, and often tries to extract the maximum of emotion from synthesised voices. You can actually hear his shows as well as read more about him and his record label at this website: earhead.com."
