I think you need to listen to some older Boingo although I love this....dead mans party or no spill blood have direct meanings....hoping you like them...
I have listen to Oingo Boingo albums before, but their more popular songs do stick out in my memory. Weird Science because I watched the Weird Science TV show back in the 90s and Deadman's Party.
Glen was right on the band, but perhaps as an introductory song, this is a tough one. Fans sometimes want to shoe how deep a lyrical observation can be by a favored artist. I've been doing a tour of Oingo Boingo vids on the net and listening to reactions. I'm a GenXer and I have a "" that I've been leaving after personal comments to the host of the website. The composer was and is responding to America's societal influences which are not much different than the ones I have constantly been encountering. I remember as a very young person the trajectory from President Carter to Reagan. The context of the lyrics are so important with a band with this portfolio. Not every song is about the Evangelicals he was referring to, but now it was prescient to the members of our supreme court, but he observed it, conceptualized it as a human might respond to being immersed in that radical culture and wrote a song about it while incorporating children's' voices as being the indoctrinated. It rings a bell true to me. Thanks for you honest assessment of this song, but my advice is to listen to Oingo Boingo songs as if the lyrics were taken over by a personality rather than the messenger believing it. I see other commentators giving props to the band, and I suggest you try "We Close Our Eyes" followed by "Just another Day" to see the range of topics. Some are from a person embodying a person (I Love Little Girls and Grey Matter are a good mirror to each other). Someone that says they can categorically pigeon hole this artist into a particular political perspective, I wonder about their arguments when their are a few songs about a libertarian perspective and the body of work reflects rumination and tongue in cheek commentary on mortality and much concern about the morality of a minority putting their rules on the majority.
I've been doing a tour of reaction vids to Oingo Boingo as I was the salt part of a salt ad pepper combo that cruisesd the streets of Vancouver, WA and graduated HS in 1985. we were both trumpet players (I sucked, he got a scholarship) and were disappointed in horn contributions to pop at the time. Listen to any Phil Collins song at the time and you'll understand. Elfman and Barteck the guitarist are laying the groundwork for over 100 soundtrack credits to date. check out their "" to watch these guys bang on xylophone creations of Elfman. Elfman at 18 toured Europe with his bro as part of a vaudeville act, then at 19 went through some African countries (No, Africa is not a country, for those that are confused by names of contents), but had to return to the US because he contracted malaria. He hooked back up with his bro to create his firs soundtrack in 2 weeks to which is a musical that has one character in blackface for about 30 seconds at the beginning of the film. other than that, a solid musical. off to my next stop!

Glen had recently told me that this was Danny Elfman's band! The voice of Jack Skellington which is freaking badass!!!
This isn’t a 80’s song. It’s from 1994. One of my favorite songs!
Song you’re listening to Insanity was released in 1994.
To me…this really shows his amazing talent of orchestration
I love it, its amazing and yet SO DARK!!
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
You gotta check out the live version from the farewell concert. Saw them at the Warfield in 93 and opening with this song was surreal.
They definitely have a very edgy dark side but loads if lighter stuff too...one you may have heard before:

There is so much better Boingo out there. Check out their Nothing to Fear or Good For Your Soul albums.
I like this!
