yeah, I'm very confused about my laughing city EP. I just noticed this. My Ep has the old version of Telescope Eyes. But every place on the website i've seen that talked about that EP said that it had the new version, is that right? -NIQ _________________ chinese food makes me sick |

Wait, you mean you have a real, store-bought, in the wrapper, ep - Laughing City, and it has the old version of Telescope Eyes? As in...the second verse goes: "go cry, go run away, Let your short legs carry you away with your big dress and your dirty hair, your pen's waiting for you, just get far, far away from me... I don't want your disease. That's impossible. I think. boyd _________________ EisleyWebGuy "The industrialists never saw the fruit of their own labor - Post Moderism, which I now proclaim as dead.

Yes, I think I'll go turn off Queen and check.... ...yeah, I think it's the old version, it sings: "oh you humor me today, calling me out to play with your telescope eyes, metal teeth I can't be seen with you. please don't make me cry, please don't make me cry I'm just like you I know you know I'm just like you so leave me alone go cry go run away let your short legs carry you away with your telescope eyes metal teeth I can't be seen with you." Repeat That's what it says but maybe that's the new version. I guess I don't know oh well -NiQ _________________ chinese food makes me sick |

-NiQ An easier way to figure it out is if there is a guitar part "reving up" at the beginning. _________________

Berlies_, you're not bad Eisley fan, you just didn't know is all. I suggest you checkout chasd00 site. Good stuff. I love the original version better personally. I wonder though, and this might be a stupid question, which I'm full of, but in the line "Dear Matthew, why can't you see? You're just not near enough like me..." Who's she talking about? Or do I just have that line all wrong... Keep on rockin'. _________________ "To cheating, stealing, fighting and drinking... When you cheat, may you cheat death.

When I bought the Laughing City EP... I was like, "what the?"... I had only listened to the other versions Telescope Eyes, Over the Mountains, & Laughing City. Are the EP's songs newer or older versions? I like the un-EP songs a little better. _________________ "Aren't we all hanging from a fragile vine awaiting an inevitable plunge to doom while mice gnaw at our temporary safety?

You have the line right, but it's just a random name being used. adrio wrote: When I bought the Laughing City EP... I was like, "what the?"...
