I’m careful not to fall have to climb your wall
‘Cause you’re the one who makes me feel much taller than you are
I’m just a peeping Tom on my own for far too long
Problems with the booze nothing left to lose
Placebo – Peeping Tom
I’m careful not to fall have to climb your wall ‘Cause you’re the one who makes me feel much taller than you are I’m just a peeping Tom on my own for far too long Problems with the booze nothing left to lose
I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared
The face that fills the hole that stole my broken soul The one that makes me seem to feel much taller than you are I’m just a peeping Tom on my own for far too long Troubles with the gear nothing left to fear
I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared
With every bet I lost and every trick I tossed You’re still the one who makes me feel much taller than you are I’m just a peeping Tom on my own for far too long Problems with the booze nothing left to lose
I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared I’m weightless, I’m bare I’m faithless, I’m scared
Load up on guns, bring your friends
It’s fun to lose and to pretend
She’s over-bored, self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
Yeah
I’m worse at what I do best
and for this gift I feel blessed
Our little tribe has always been
and always will, until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
Yeah
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello
With the lights out it’s less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
A denial, a denial
The song featured is culled from the Westwood One radio broadcast of the show (28 December 1991), one of a handful of dates the band did supporting the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. The songs used are all strong performances of commonly played songs. The band however tears through their most popular song, ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’. Clocking in at around 4 minutes 30 a full 30 seconds quicker than the album version, it is a lively and very energetic performance of a song that was played with little enthusiasm for the most part throughout the rest of the band’s career.
The show these songs came from is a good performance. The band, playing second on a bill including the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Pearl Jam performs a short set, consisting of most of the bands hit songs of the time. This is a strong performance by a band at the peak of both their powers and popularity and is well worth checking out.
