Do You Love Me Now?


Sung to “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” by: The Crash Test Dummies.


Once there was this girl who,

Couldn’t think of anything to do for her directing scene.

And when the due date came ‘round.

She, stayed, up way too late with her ipod.

This song came on by Kim Deal the bassist from the Piiii-xieeeess


Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm


Once this girl had listened

She felt she knew much more about what Kim Deal was singing

And when she looked at the words.

She, saw, a woman in love but hurting.

What if she had killed him? Then it could get creeee peeee.


Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm

Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm


All night she dreamed of the fact

She could go much farther then that


Then when she woke up

She thought oh man the hurt woman will hold on to the body.

And then it would show that

She, was, never able to touch him.

She couldn’t quite explain it she really liked deeeaaaad guuuuy.


Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm


Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm


Cue church choir fade out to crickets


I would like to thank the wonderful actors and director who are kicking ass on this piece and also the 90’s alterna-drone movement. You inspire so much.

Does any one else feel like wearing flannel?
