Lyrics:
Eye on the TV
'Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor it happens to be like
Killed by the husband
Drowned by the ocean
Shot by his own son
She used a poison
In his tea
And kissed him goodbye
That's my kind of story
It's no fun until someone dies
Don't look at me like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face
But with the other
Stare like a junkie
Into the TV
Stare like a zombie
While the mother
Holds her child
Watches him die
Hands to the sky crying
"Why, oh why?"
'Cause I need to watch things die
From a distance
Vicariously I live
While the whole world dies
You all need it too, don't lie
Why can't we just admit it?
Why can't we just admit it?
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
Neither the brave nor bold
Were writers of the stories told
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
I need to watch things die
From a good safe distance
Vicariously I live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same, so
Why can't we just admit it?
Blood like rain come down
Drum on grave and ground
Part vampire
Part warrior
Carnivore and voyeur
Stare at the transmittal
Sing to the death rattle
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
Credulous at best
Your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men
Pull your head out of your hippie haze
And give a listen
Shouldn't have to say it all again
The universe is hostile, so impersonal
Devour to survive, so it is
So it's always been
We all feed on tragedy
It's like blood to a vampire
Vicariously I
Live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I

My dad used this as his morning alarm my entire childhood. Every morning I new my dreams were over and I had to go to school when the first notes of this started playing. I used to hate this song and it gave me anxiety every time I heard it for a very long time... being the sound that forced me to get out of bed and go to school every single morning for years. After all this time I stumbled upon it on KZbin and after the initial shock and flashbacks that I got I'm going to say that it is a masterpiece of a song and I'm glad that my dad picked this as the tune that started off all my mornings back in the day.

[@nicknackpattywackshow5011]

[@aarongarcia3078]

First time hearing this song was when I was a young teen in 2006. It was on the drive home from the shops here in Melbourne, Australia. I was in the passenger seat holding a Xbox game copy of GTA: San Andreas reading the manual. I was telling dad to change the station as I was unhappy with live radio talk shows until we stumbled across the opening to this song on a random music station. Dad said in Filipino, "let's keep it on, it's building up to something..." He wasn't wrong! We were both blown away by music we were totally unfamiliar with. Next day, we came back to the shops and ended up buying the album to listen to. I couldn't be more grateful for such memorable times. Nowadays it's hard to find a band or music to this standard. I feel they don't make music like this anymore. Anyway, any suggestions of modern bands I'm missing out on would be f**king awesome!

"I need to watch things die, from a good safe distance" Maynard was an Artillery forward observer. Forward observers move into enemy territory to spot targets and call them into FCC.

I'm 48 and have been into music since I was a little kid listening with my Dad to LPs in the basement. After all my phases and musical interests (and silly attempts at playing instruments), I cannot believe how awesome this band is. Both on a musical level I can only appreciate and a lyrical level I can absolutely relish, I believe these guys are the best thing to happen to RNR in my life. I grew up on southern and punk rock, Dead can Dance and Misfits, Exploited and Minor threat, and some of their logos tattooed on me. They speak to me psychologically, metaphysically, metaphorically, literally, and so much more. I'll never stop listening to their material and growing from it somehow.

The second Tool song I heard but the first that I really listened to and man is this track outstanding. As I explore their catalogue I still haven’t found a track I like more.

[@Jugglenaught1980]

It's a good one to get you introduced. The lyrics are amazing and it's heavy!

[@ibmasterblaster]

I've listened to TOOL for a long time, but listening to this again today, especially since the recent back-to-back mass shootings, is giving me such different perspective based on where we are in the world today. Incredible band, enjoy your journey in discovering them!

[@smorcsavage9234]

right in two and the pot are amazing.

[@Itsunclegabby]

Tool hasn't created a bad song. I feel like this track, The Pot, and Right in Two are great intros to the band.

Use Tool as a tool to help you quit, bud. I smoked for 15 years. You can do it!!!

[@jamescanada2460]

The lyrics of this one are a heavy trip. As humans we all have a hardwired capacity for hate, selfishness, violence and the like. But we also have the capacity for love, courage, kindness, and gratitude. At the end of the day, we do have the choice to feed one or the other, we must remember that. But that is the curse of the animal world, it has no concept of these things. Animals have no bloodlust as we know the term, nor the ability to appreciate beauty. Their blessing is they are in perfect harmony with nature, which also happens to be the true curse of us humans, that we are not. Much love to you all

the artists that make up all three bands are one of a kind. no one will ever come close, as for TOOL there are no words to describe the genius, artistry. This band is truly one of a kind and I thank God for allowing Maynard to share is art, his passion with the world and most definitely myself.....i pray they keep going until they just can't anymore

[@mystick93]

Sounds like you need to spit that tool out and explore a little. There is all kinds of great music out there. This is only a fraction of the great music out there,kid. You'll see.

[@LaudauteDominum-er2mr]

I'll never forget the feeling of listening to this album for the first time. So different than anything I've heard before, never knowing what would come next because of the crazy time signatures. And the music is so awesome too. I was blown away
