Your Stuck in my Head Song of the Day

I guess I was thinking about this song in my sleep or it related somehow to a dream (don't read too much into that) but when I woke up this morning I was humming it and it was the first song I had to play. Anyway it's Ted, Just Admit it by Jane's Addiction and it is a really catchy song, probably the catchiest song ever written about and using an audio sample from a serial killer, in this case Ted Bundy (and me knowing that I of course let my mind and fingers wander and somehow started watching his last interview, something that I really did not need. At one point in my life I wanted to be a forensic psychologist and do that kinda stuff- that point is long past and faraway.) A perky song for a perky late fall day. obvs.
Either way this is Your Stuck in My Head Song of the Day- Ted, Just Admit it by Jane's Addiction
and here are three live videos of the song performed in each of the last three decades; the first being from 1989, the second from 1997 and the third from 2003; watching the evolution, growth and variation was interesting to me at least:


Camera got them images
Camera got them all
Nothing's shocking...
Showed me everybody
Naked and disfigured
Nothing's shocking...
And then he came
Now sister's
Not a virgin anymore
Her sex is violent...

The T.V.'s got them images
T.V.'s got them all
It's not shocking!
Every half an hour
Someone's captured and
The cop moves them along...
It's just like the show before
The news is
Just another show
With sex and violence...

Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent...
Sex is violent!

I am the killer of people
You look like a meatball
I'll throw away your toothpick
And ask for your giveness

Because of this thing!
Because of this thing!
Because of this thing!

That's in me
Is it not in you?
Is it not your problem?
A baby to a mother...

You talk too much
To your scapegoat
That's what I say
He tells you everyone is stupid
That's what he thinks!

Snapshots
Make a girl look cheap
Like a tongue extended
A baby's to a mother

Sex is violent!
Sex is violent!
Sex is violent!
Sex is violent!
