about

{1991 demo version digitized from DAT, edited, mixed and mastered}

lyrics

Tennessee Williams spoke with a lisp
And my skinny arms ache to hold you
Tennessee Williams, Mr. Williams
Do big men really run the world?
Do big men? Do big men?
Do big men really run the world?
Jesus, tell me
— Do big men really run the world?

Montgomery Clift was a junkie
And I need you more than you want me
Montgomery Clift, poor Monty Clift
Do big men really run the world?
Do big men? Do big men?
Do big men really run the world?
Jesus, tell me
— Do big men really run the world?

You know who?
You know who was a human ashtray

Do big men? Do big men?
Do big men really run the world?

Oh, in my wildest dreams
I hold you in my skinny, honest arms
Do big men? Do big men?
Do big men really run the world?
Jesus, tell me
— Do big men really run the world?

about

Myself a Living Torch San Francisco, California

By turns surreal, beautiful, arch, and melancholic, MaLT’s sonic adventures explore the meaning of love and role of sex in a failing, depersonalized culture. Literate enough for lasting relevance, tuneful enough for disposable pop; dark, sometimes heavy, but always with sly humor and a dash of hope. Active in SF CA between 1991 and 1993 ... Credit Louis-Ferdinand Céline for the incendiary name. ... more
