I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that. |

I've always thought of "Debaser" as just kind of a fun song. What do you find angry about it? Is it the "slicing up eyeballs" line? Because that's a reference to an old surrealist film by Salvador Dali (I had to look up the name, it's called Un Chien Andalou). The whole song is about that movie. Black Francis isn't saying he really wants to slice up eyeballs or anything.

I find his screaming angry. It is a fun song, I love jogging to it, but it just sounds angry on the surface.
