lyrics

Dear Mister Manson, have you heard of or seen
A man from Wisconsin by the name of Ed Gein?
You helped me discover the Beatles and Stones,
But he turned me on to the beauty of bones.
At sixteen my feelings for you haven't changed
But Ed Gein has shown me the meaning of strange.
I'm doing a term paper on him for school
How could he be such a square and so cool?

Old mean Ed Gein
Lived on long pig and turnip greens
Old mean Ed Gein
Looks right through you and he sees your
spleen.

You say you've never made love, Mister Gein
Alone on your farm without lights or TV?
I'd like to peek into
Your candlelit room.

Old mean Ed Gein
Gave neighbors venison on Christmas Eve
Old mean Ed Gein
She hung like a deer,
All dressed out and cleaned.

You gave me thoughts that I've never had
People are sculptures,
Their faces are masks
It's a strange, new land
But I think that I understand.

Old mean Ed Gein
Danced by full moon
In the girl of his dreams
Old mean Ed Gein
The shadow they cast
Made him feel like a queen.

Deer Mister Manson, have you heard of or seen
A man from Wisconsin by the name of Ed Gein?

The Fibonaccis image

The Fibonaccis Los Angeles, California

Welcome to The Fibonaccis official Bandcamp page. The band rose from the early-'80s Los Angeles art punk scene and drew from a wide range of ideas and influences. It was active until 1988, with a brief exhumation and CD retrospective in 1992. The name comes from Leonardo Fibonacci, the 14th century Italian mathematician from Pisa.
