I heard the name Blow Monkeys is an Australian ethnic slur for aborigines but anyway, I like this cut and another one they had called "It Dosent Have to Be That Way".

This is a Sirius discovery for me. I mean, I know I heard this song before but never knew who sang it. Great track.

oh my stars...kids in school thought i was weird for loving this song.

Digging Your Scene
The Blow Monkey


I just got your message baby
So sad to see you fade away
What in the world is this feeling
To catch a breath and leave me reeling
It'll get you in the end, its god's revenge

Oh I know I should come clean
But I prefer to deceive
Everyday I walk alone
And pray that god won't see me

I know its wrong, I know its wrong
Tell me why is it I'm digging your scene
I know I'll die baby

They put you in a home to fill in
But I wouldn't call that living
I'm like a boy among man
I'd like a permanent friend

I'd like to think that I was just myself again
Why is it I'm digging your scene
I know I'll die baby

I just got your message baby
So sad to see you fade away
I'm like a boy among men
I'd like a permanent friend
I'd like to think that I was just myself again

Why is it I'm digging your scene
I know I'll die baby

Oh come home baby come on angel

Who the hell knew this song was about AIDS?

I know! I just looked it up on Wikipedia and I'm like "This isn't just a harmless lightly soulful/funky pop song?"

I kind of get it, but I'm not sure. Was the lead singer gay and singing about feeling sorry for those with Aids and that he is lucky ("Everyday I walk alone
And pray that god won't see me")? Or is more judgemental in saying "It'll get you in the end, its god's revenge"?
