Oingo Boingo - Good For Your Soul Lyrics

Damn the verses really touched me in this song, amazing yet weird.

Have you ever felt that somehow
You were not yourself
That your body was the same
But everything around you wasn't right
And images so strange and foreign
Flooded in like raging water

Have you ever been in love
With someone you hardly knew
Whereas every time you closed your eyes
You saw this person come alive
It kept you wide awake at night
You felt like you were burning up
It made you want to scream
Then you passed out in a dream

Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
If you don't stop, you'll lose control
Just once or twice is good for your soul

Ever lay there half-asleep all hours of the night
With some nagging demon tugging at that tiny bell
Inside your mind
When suddenly, that strange idea
Bursts into an inspiration
You grab for it and then
The whole thing slips right through your fingers

Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
If you don't stop, you'll lose control
Just once or twice is good for your soul

Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
It's good for your soul

Shoutouts to anyone who noticed the poster of this in Yu Yu Hakusho.

It's a gd crime how people forgot this band

This keeps me up at night. How could Oingo Boingo be so freaking awesome?!?

Well clearly Danny Elfman is deeply influenced by Satanism and hard drugs.😜

This whole album is magical

My favorite album of theirs.

Every word in this masterpiece mirrors my whole life

I agree

One of the best Oingo Boingo songs... A hidden gem!

Oingo Boingo Tapes If they’re anything like me (open to songs, almost any songs no matter how weird, as long as it’s catchy) they’ll find it on their own. Sooner or later they’ll find this song.
