Too Much Paranoias (Alt Lyrics) Yellow rabbit men and boys Running, hiding, clutching doors Running ‘round like stupid tools They all think that we’re the fools Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce Special orders, don’t upset us All we ask is that you let us serve it your way! There’s too much paranoias There’s too much paranoias My mama’s afraid to tell me the things she’s ‘fraid of! Yellow rabbit men and boys Running, hiding, clutching doors They don’t know we listened too I don’t wanna be with you! Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce Special orders, don’t upset us All we ask is that you let us serve it your way! There’s too much paranoias There’s too much paranoias My mama’s afraid to tell me the things she’s ‘fraid of!
It looks like they finally settled on the final version of "Fraulein". If you listen to the demo on Hardcore, you'll notice the little chromatic riff based on the "Powerhouse" bass line is absent, while on the other unreleased demo, the opening synth fanfare is absent. This version has all of them and the Hardcore Live performance is based on that.
Judging by what Jerry says during the outro to words, I think that that's from a show at Mabuhay Gardens, he mentions dancers. And in DEVO unmasked it mentions having dancers during Jocko Homo at a show in Mabuhay
It's noise reduction - I got this show on CD-R in a trade way back in the day, and there was this hideous high-frequency hiss that literally gave me a headache whenever I tried to listen to the recording. Obviously someone tried stripping it out to make the show more listenable. I'll take this version any day!
Uncontrollable Urge at this speed and with this modified instrumentation is weird and cool to hear.
Possibly one of my fav bootlegs
Too Much Paranoias (Alt Lyrics)
Yellow rabbit men and boys
Running, hiding, clutching doors
Running ‘round like stupid tools
They all think that we’re the fools
Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce
Special orders, don’t upset us
All we ask is that you let us serve it your way!
There’s too much paranoias
There’s too much paranoias
My mama’s afraid to tell me the things she’s ‘fraid of!
Yellow rabbit men and boys
Running, hiding, clutching doors
They don’t know we listened too
I don’t wanna be with you!
Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce
Special orders, don’t upset us
All we ask is that you let us serve it your way!
There’s too much paranoias
There’s too much paranoias
My mama’s afraid to tell me the things she’s ‘fraid of!
Raw devolved goodness!
Apparently only members of Devo ever knew the answer to what their left and right hands were doing, respectively.
"Space Junk" is beautiful in this performance.

This is the best Fraulein version IMHO

Great stuff...awesome to hear em raw

❤❤❤❤❤❤
Someone at some point applied some bad noise reduction to the audio, or maybe just compressed the audio bitrate a lot.
CKT1138 gonna have to go with bitrate is low
if i had to guess id say thats just how it was recorded
A more stripped down rock sound on these performances. Devo is versatile like that.
