Alright, a bunch of us have heard the Flywheel Gig were Thurston plays early versions of songs off of rather ripped, so I figured I'd post some interpretations of lyrics for some of the songs, starting with Do You Believe in Rapture? Now, I can't believe there're a couple words I'm not sure of because Thurston sings them pretty plainly and clearly, but still just a couple of single words are like, huh?, that could be three different things. Anywawy, here you go.
Do You Believe in Rapture
Stand behind his drunken amp (imp?),
Stand behind his light of love,
Hear him yell his bloody tongue
Hear him yell of blood and war
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in a second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
A terrible hit strikes today
A terrible head for the parade
Burning eyes see Jesus coming
Jesus comes to pave the way
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in a second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
Can you tell me what to feel
Open up your tender soul
Can I drink your drunken mercy
Wine burns the devil's home (hole? hope?)
Do you believe in his sweet sensation?
Do you believe in a second chance?
Do you believe in rapture, babe?
