"I GOT INTO A FIGHT WITH A GUY OVER THESE LYRICS ONCE.... NO KIDDING, IT WAS AT THREE IN THE MORNING BACK IN THE 90'S... WHEN I THINK IT OVER I STILL GET ENRAGED ABOUT IT......"We almost starting trading blows at eachother under a blood red moon about who had the right lyrics. I apologize for "Ben"... I wont use his real name.. actualy that is his real name but I won't use his real last name..... but this guy was a ... ( is probably...) a real asshole. Either way, this fight escalated to the point where someone was probably going to get seriously hurt out of the deal. WHEW... anyways.. this is the song.... and its a real beaut.
This came off the album.....I Often Dream of Trains... and that entire album has a dreamlike quality to it. Years after I first heard this song the entire thing is somewhat alarming. "Pretty Girls" tries to be a song..... somewhat apologetically in the middle and then it goes straight away back into the rough bit.
The ending is always alarming too because its so abrupt. Years later I ask myself what it is that I am supposed to feel. I like this song but I am not sure why. I like a lot of things that arent necessarily good for me either.
