Inspired by Video Violence (1987) - www.imdb.com/title/tt0316111

No Budget Nightmare's Podcast: www.nobudgetpodcast.com/episode-40-vi…iolence-1987/

lyrics

What a pretty town
What a strange, off-putting pretty town
That never had a video store but has so many VCRs around
And the local folk
All those strange off-putting local folk
Don't know Abbot from Costello
But love seeing ladies tied and gagged and bound

I wanna say it's quaint
But Mayberry it ain't
It doesn't make any sense
All this video violence

The Eli Show
Is the biggest of these flicks that I know
Sometimes it's hard to see
Despite their striving local film industry

I wanna say it's quaint
But Mayberry it ain't
It doesn't make any sense
All this....

Scissor, or razor, or ice pick to choose
Scissor, or razor, or ice pick to choose
Scissor, or razor, or ice pick to choose
Scissor, or razor, or ice pick to choose

I would say it's fine
But this is coming out of your cheque, not mine
I wouldn't say it's snuff
But sometimes renting is not enough
And I wanna say it's quaint
But Mayberry it ain't
It doesn't make any sense
All this video violence
