The Soup Dragons showed up in my world around 1992. I'm not sure if I heard them first at Xenon, the teen club that I would frequent, or on 94.5 The EDGE, the radio station to which I was perpetually glued. Regardless, I loved this band!
Another band that showed up in my world around the same time was Candy Flip, with their cover of the Beatles' song, "Strawberry Fields Forever". I will include that one for you, as well as two others by The Soup Dragons called "Pleasure" and "Divine Thing"...
Don't be afraid of your freedom
Freedom
I'm free to do what I want any old time
I said, I'm free to do what I want any old time
I say, love me, hold me, love me, hold me
'Cause I'm free to do what I want any old time
And I'm free to be who I choose any old time
I say love me, hold me, love me, hold me
'Cause I'm free
I say love me, hold me, love me, hold me
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
To be what I want any old time
And I'm free to be who I choose
To get my booze any old time
I say love me
(Love me forever)
Hold me
(And love will never die)
Love me, hold me
'Cause I'm free
Do you hear what I say
These are the words me hear from my granddaddy, come on
These are the words me hear from my granddaddy
Who say nothing in this world like when a man know he free
Free from the lackamissa, free from the dee
Free like a butterfly, free like a bee
These are the words me hear from my granddaddy
Said, it's nice to be free, nice to be free
Free from the lackamissa, free from the dee
Don't be afraid of your freedom
'Cause I'm free to do what I want any old time
(I'm a new creation)
'Cause I'm free to do what I want any old time
(Don't be afraid of your freedom)
I said, I'm I'm free to do what I want
To be what I want any old time
I said, I'm free to be who I choose
To get my booze any old time
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
Any old time
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
Any old time
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
Any old time
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
Any old time
'Cause I'm free to do what I want
Any old time
