    The world is in desperate need of some new Scissor Sisters music

      I agree. Unfortunately I think that most people would never understand this song n the first place. How far down do we chase those who understand?

    Always thought this was such an underrated track; great to see they absolutely kill it live!

    As a gay man struggling with substance abuse, meth in particular, this song is highly relatable. I appreciate the message.

    I wish I could have seen this live, when I saw them at the Showbox in Seattle, they were touring Ta-Dah at the time. There wouldn't be a dry eye in the entire venue, I can assure you. The message of this particular song is such a powerful one, the Scissor Sisters are lyrical and sonic geniuses.

    Such a brilliant representation of the whole feel of the film...especially the desperation of the "wheelies" ...just great 🥳👍💕

      Watch the film "Party Monster" with Macaulay Culkin, right to the end credits.... The song is metaphorical (it's about Aids and New York City)

    Lyrics: (Tradução abaixo)
    Once there was a man
    who had a little too much time on his hands
    he never stopped to think that he was getting older.
    When his night came to an end
    He tried to grasp for his last friend and pretend
    That he could wish himself health on a four-leaf clover
    He said is this the return to Oz?
    The grass is dead, the gold is brown and the sky has claws
    There's a wind-up man walking round and round
    What once was Emerald City is now a crystal town
    Its three o' clock in the morning
    You get a phone call from the queen with a hundred heads
    She says that they're all dead
    She tried the last one on
    It couldn't speak, fell off
    And now she just wanders the halls
    Thinking nothing, thinking nothing at all
    She says is this the return to Oz?
    The grass is dead, the gold is brown and the sky has claws
    There's a wind-up man walking round and round
    What once was Emerald City is now a crystal town
    The wheelies are cutting pavement
    and the Skeksis at the rave meant
    to hide deep inside
    their sunken faces
    and their wild, rolling eyes
    But their callous words reveal
    That they can no longer feel
    Love or sex appeal
    The patchwork girl has come to cinch the deal
    To return to Oz we've fled the world
    With smiles and clenching jaws
    Please help me friend from coming down
    I've lost my place now and it cant be found
    Is this the return to Oz?
    The grass is dead, the gold is brown and the sky has claws
    There's a wind-up man walking round and round
    What once was Emerald City is now a crystal town
    Tradução
    Retorno à Oz
    Uma vez havia um homem
    Que tinha muito tempo de sobra
    Ele nunca parou para realizar que ele estava envelhecendo
    E quando sua noite chegou à um fim,
    Ele tentou segurar seu último amigo e fingir
    Que poderia desejar a saúde à si mesmo em um trevo de quatro folhas
    Ele disse: Isso é o retorno à OZ?
    A grama está morta, o ouro é marrom e o céu tem garras
    Tem um homem acabado andando em círculos
    O que era uma vez a cidade das esmeraldas é agora uma cidade dos cristais
    São três horas da manhã
    Você recebeu um telefonema da rainha de cem cabeças
    Ela diz que eles estão todos mortos
    Ela tentou reanimar o último
    Ele não conseguia falar, caiu
    E agora ela só vagueia pelos salões
    Pensando em nada, pensando em totalmente nada
    Ela disse: Isso é o retorno à OZ?
    A grama está morta, o ouro é marrom e o céu tem garras
    Tem um homem acabado andando em círculos
    O que era uma vez a cidade das esmeraldas é agora uma cidade dos cristais
    Os motoqueiros estão cruzando o pavimento
    E os Skeksis na rave quiseram dizer
    Para se esconder nos fundos
    As suas faces derramadas
    E seus selvagens, olhos esbugalhados
    Mas suas palavras insensíveis revelam
    Que eles não conseguem mais sentir
    Amor ou excitação
    A garota da colcha de retalhos veio para selar o acordo
    Para retornar à oz - nós liberamos o mundo
    Com sorrisos e gargantas fechadas
    Por favor me salve, amigo, da queda
    Eu perdi meu lugar e agora não consigo encontrá-lo
    É isso o Retorno à Oz?
    A grama está morta, o ouro é marrom e o céu tem garras
    Tem um homem acabado andando em círculos
    O que era uma vez a cidade das esmeraldas é agora uma cidade dos cristais

    ummmmmm. Hot Take here, but the crazy-eyed piano bit at the end ties the whole thing together and they totally jettisoned it in this live performance. I was Yay but now I'm Boo.

    Just love these guys but I would have liked the guitar ending at the end of " Oz" to go on for longer cos it was great. Just as you're getting into it they finish ! 😧
