Queens of the Stone Age - Straight Jacket Fitting (Official Audio)

From the album, In Times New Roman…: qotsa.ffm.to/itnr
Come for a fitting way of life
It’s all the rage, enslaved, in style
Come for a fitting a way of life
Straight jacket fitting a little too tight
Hold me close, I’m confused,
I don’t wanna go out
Told myself “you can do this”, but I’m having doubts
The old world melts like a candle a flickering out
What can you do? We’re all alone
...In times new Roman, No allegiance
Chasing your wish over the cliff
If you insist on daydreaming.
Wake up we need you
No more daydreaming
Don’t fall asleep now
How is the fitting way of life?
Boa constricting a little too tight
Friends close, enemies closer
Lend me your ear
Safety’s an illusion
That’s why it disappear
Infiltrators, saboteurs
Affix your blades, steel your nerves
Maraud the facade cause the children want answers
Corrode, from inside, like a good type cancer
Oh piss on:
the clergy, the new age heathens
The old guard, avant guard, technolojesus
The hand made jury, cage free, corporate raiders
Patriotic, probiotic, deletist, eracists
The world
She don’t need saving
‘Cept from you & me & our...
Misbehaving
To face down your demons, you gotta free them
To seize all your demons, Carpe demon
The look in your eyes says I love you
Oh, I love you too
Hold me close, I’m confused,
I don’t wanna go out
Told myself “you can do this” I’m having doubts
The old world melts like a candle a flickering out Still so much to lose & I’ve already lost.. So much
What can You do? We’re all alone
...In times new Roman, no allegiance
Chasing a wish over the cliff
Oh, I insist on daydreaming
What can you say? Enjoy the buffet
...In times new Roman or it’s treason
What you expect?
I’m so goddamn sick of this place
Bring on the healing
Go on & heal me
Bring on the healing now
Good dogs lay down
Come for a fitting way of life
It’s all the rage, enslaved, in style
Come for a fitting a way of life
Straight jacket fitting a little too tight

MAN, THAT OUTRO The last minutes of Villains of Circumstance and Straight Jacket Fitting are probably my favorite album endings

[@АртемСергеев-д9я]

This whole "demons" part from 3:48 to 4:29 ( and especially on 3:58 with strings) is incredible. What an ending for the album

[@steverainingagain7956]

Just extraordinary. Such a strange section to incorporate into a song but thats why Queens are on another level. So consistently brilliant despite throwing some of the most "out there" and experimental stuff into their music.

[@FelipeAkira42]

[@EvanWCraig]

i'm on listen 100, how about you? i can't get over it. Josh and the band are ready for battle in this record. best living band by farrrrr now. josh is the king of rock and bloody roll.

[@dementedmidget05]

Can we talk about how the middle 8 sounds like it's emulating the Doors' Roadhouse Blues. Hommes vocals and lyrics are absolutely THRIVING during that part, followed by the bridge with the demon lyrics? Classic Homme play on words with the lyrics there. "To seize all your demons, carpe demon". Amazing outro to the record, followed by that acoustic outro??? Gave me those Zeppelin-esque vibes they were emulating a bit with the acoustic stuff in Rated R/Songs for the Deaf, as well as flashbacks of Kyuss. Soaking in this album over the weekend, been a great ride so far

[@dementedmidget05]

Good dogs lay down!!!!!!!

[@atrain8233]

I said the same thing when I sent this song to my buddy from work yesterday about the Jim Morrison vibes in that middle 8. Amazing song!

[@Brometheus84]

4 sure

[@jacksonmaloney8520]

Amazing ending to the album. I feel Homme has always been criminally underrated as a lyricist and hopefully his effort on this final track doesn't go unnoticed; it's so brutal when he writes "still so much to lose and I've already lost so much."

[@barryjones2638]

I agree with you there, he’s one of the best songwriters ever. I’d seriously put him up there with the likes of Roger Waters, Page+Plant, Thom Yorke, Bono, Prince, Lennon+McCartney. He’s THAT GOOD!!!

[@patricktheexpat]

It really is amazing how under the radar he still is. Like, if you're in the know, you know, but Joe Average had no idea of the genius that is the Ginger Elvis

[@MikaelVoldaren]

It's like you understand what Josh was dealing with. And just want to give him a comforting hug. The album just opens all wounds then heals it with iodine.

[@turtleturds]

he is the best lyricist since pink floyd.

He kind of did this in Vultures, but the writing and instrumentals were good enough to pull it off. I don't like how these songs aren't hitting from start to finish. It's a sign of someone sorely needing an editor, like the last 3 Scorcese movies sucked but would have been great if they chopped a third of what he left in. Some people don't keep people around that will be honest with them... If they cut 2:30 - 3:28 from this track, it'd be a lot better.

@@RedBleedingBult unfortunately I think they're still So underrated as a whole with society. They don't make that normal cookie cutter rock and roll. Which is what I love about them. I saw a reddit post earlier that a woman posted saying there was only 1 woman to every 5 men at the record release party. Which makes sense. Queens is definitely an acquired taste

Strong Doors vibes here. I love it.

This song is absolutely beautiful, getting some massive Them Crooked Vultures vibes. That chorus gets me everytime

[@limajr230]

Moro numa área rural, quando volto do serviço pra casa caminho por uma longa estrada deserta e mal iluminada. Decidi ouvir essa música pela primeira vez nesse trajeto no último volume com meus fones no ouvido, e foi uma experiência maravilhosa. Obrigado queens , vcs são os melhores .

Jeito certo de ouvir kk

[@livrepensador4517]

Boa 😂

KZbin is wild for putting an ad break in the middle of a song. That shit needs to stop. Epic fuckin track!

[@ZIDERIAN]

In times New Roman for the best album of the year !!

[@malcolmsturrock3866]

I think outro is a slow acoustic version of "Obscenery", masterpiece... I love QOTSA, their music is soundtrack of my life. Play for us forever and never stop.

[@sdcards]

listening to this album while riding around on a scooter at night. fucking amazing feeling especially on this track and Sicily. Outstanding music as always 🖤❤️💛

[@woodchuckmarmalade7878]

It’s no hyperbole when I tell people this is the greatest rock album of all time.

[@chillsy_pluto]

was only recently introduced to this lovely band thanks to a friend of mine and I gotta say that I loved every single record on "In Times New Roman...", especially this 9 minute long masterpiece. it's like a perfect mix of energy and pure melancholy, this is the kind of song to get absolutely smashed to

[@ledzeppelin3014]

Rock is dead...long live Rock ! ❤

[@linlee79]

Beautiful, the ending is pure magic. Thank you, Queens 🐍

[@sakissaitis2950]

They best describe the weirdness of these times.

[@LeonardoBruno54]

I love this band so much.

[@Significator111]

"I told myself you can do this; I'm having my doubts." We're with you buddy. Get well soon.

[@Highowllord]

This one reminds me of Warsaw from them crooked vultures, and you’ve got a killer scene… from lullabies. Nice blend of some of their past styles mixed with the new.

[@samuelbruno8353]

This is the best song on the album

[@KyleDixson-o1i]

Wow. Cannot stop listening to this album. Straight Jacket Fitting has me crying for weeks now, really hits deep.

[@eddr1998]

This album is getting better and stronger with each listen! Good ol' Queens....

[@00vulture]

We've officially achieved the 4th generation of QOTSA's drummers. Hernández; Grohl; Castillo; Theodore. No more comparisons Jon, you're a Queen now

[@DazMalzbier]

There were five. Between Herandez and Grohl was Trautmann

[@DazMalzbier]

oh wait, actually they were 6. Matt Cameron of Pearl Jam and Soundgarden was drumming on the very early Qotsa recordings before the debut record.

[@ItaiIfrach]

It's just me or this track is so unique and different from any other track QOTSA made to this day ? The arrangemnt is spectacular.

[@nworbrelytthefirst]

That middle bit where the tempo picks up and Josh preaches reminds me a lot of The Doors. and Iggy’s last rant on Post Pop Depression.

[@julianemb_8127]

my favorite of the album

[@MikaelVoldaren]

For it to be the last song of In Times New Roman, it's so powerful. ❤

[@johngower2208]

Lyrically, this song echoes my thoughts and feelings about the present moment in time. How we're sleepwalking into a nightmare... He understands

[@KyleDixson-o1i]

Yes. Has me crying again and again. Just wow.
