Biography

Alternative / modern rock band from Madison, Wisconsin, USA. Shirley Manson - vocals, keyboards, guitar Duke Erikson - bass, guitar, keyboards Steve Marker - guitar, keyboards, loops Butch Vig - drums, loops, noise, fx In the early 1980s, rock producers Vig (Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins) and Marker founded Smart Studios, a recording studio in Madison, Wisconsin. Vig and musician friend Erikson formed the group Fire Town in the late 1980s, an offshoot from their disbanded band Spooner. Marker was their roadie. Vig and Marker began making electronic/rock mixes for artists like Nine Inch Nails and House Of Pain. In 1993 they decided they wanted to form a band that employed the remix and genre-bending approach they experimented with earlier and began looking for a singer and fourth collaborator. Guitarist Steve Marker came across a video of Scottish band Angelfish on MTV's "120 Minutes". Struck by the lead singer's (Shirley Manson) voice, he informed the guys and their manager contacted Manson, inviting her to audition in Madison, Wisconsin. After an unsuccessful audition, Manson asked to audition again, which led to skeletal versions of a few songs. The band officially formed in 1994, and released their self-titled debut in 1995. All four members are involved in songwriting and production.

LYRICS

I wish i had a metal heart
i could cross the line
i wish that i was half as good
as you think i am
but now that we know for sure they're telling lies when they say
no one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
you know it's hard to believe anything that you hear
they say the world is round

wish i was as big as you
you'd have to tell the truth
i'd be nothing you could hurt
nothing you could use

but now that we know for sure they're telling lies when they say
no one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
you know it's hard to believe anything that you hear
they say the world is round
the world is round?

i want to be dependable , i want to be courageous and good
i want to be faithful so that i can be heroic and true
i want to be a friend you can rely on you can lean on and trust
i want to understand so i can forgive and be willing to love

i wish i wasn't flesh and blood
i would not be scared
of bullets built with me in mind
for then i could be saved

my sweet lord take care of me for i think i'm done
kiss my mother on her cheek and lay my burden down

but now that we know for sure they're telling lies when they say
no one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies
you know it's hard to believe anything that you hear
they say the world is round
the world is round?
the world is round?!
