Godzilla question...

[madeline_con]

Blue Oyster Cult's tune, that is.

I thought the words went..."helpless people on subway trains scream "My God!" as he looks in on them."

According to some online lyrics, they say, "... scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them."

Thoughts?

1. I don't know

but I'm rather perplexed by the fact that I happened to actually be listening to the song right now out of coincidence.

2. That is rather odd. n/t

3. You found the right guy to answer your question.

:)

It is indeed "bug eyed".

More curious to me is that the next line of the song is, "He picks up a bus and he throws it back down" which Godzilla didn't do once in all 28 movies. He has picked up a train a couple times though. :)

4. Poetic license?

or were they just fucked up whilst composing?

When I was a bouncer in the 80s I met the lead guitarist, can't remember his name.

My metalhead pre-teen son was most impressed.

I'd have to vote for fucked up; dude had some clean blow.

6. I'm going to go with "fucked up" too.

5. I always have, and always shall sing it as...

"...scream, "My God!"..."
