imho - best protest song ever!
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Why should I care?
A man broke into my neighborhood
He threatened the family with a loaded gun
He tied them all up and beat `em real good
He took everything and he got away clean
And I can`t believe that anyone would
Wanna do such a terrible thing
But why should I care?
Did ya hear about Fred, he`s unemployed
They threw him away like a useless toy
He went down the drain after 20 long years
No warning, no pension and nobody`s tears
And I can`t believe that anyone would
Wanna do such a terrible thing
But why should I care?
Why should I care?
Every time I look around this place
I see them scream but I hear no sound
And the terrible things happen down the road
To someone else that I don`t even know
CHORUS
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Nothing bad ever happens to me
Why should I care?
Have you heard about the Joneses, my, my, my
It happened so quick and no one knows why
Their teenage son, he seemed O.K.
But his suicide ruined everyone`s day
And I can`t believe that anyone would
Wanna do such a terrible thing
But why should I care?
CHORUS
(Nothing bad ever happens to me)
Nothing bad ever happens to me

Nitpick: "maniacs", not "monsters".
Other than that... yeah, what you said.

Stay, is my favorite song.
Mine too. Too bad there isn't a poll on here. Actually, I think there was another Oingo Boingo thread in here a while back, and I know it had a poll. As I recall, I voted for "Stay" on that poll.

Watch "URGH! A Music War", and that will change your vote.

STAY
GOODBYE GOODBYE (how can you hear that song and not think of the closing titles of Fast Times at Ridgemont High?
JUST ANOTHER DAY
But I love so many Boingo songs...one of my all time fave 80s bands... I actually met Danny Elfman and the whole band after a show they did in Chicago in 1987! It was one amazing night!

Weird Science
Only A Lad
Winning Side
Not My Slave
Nothing Bad Ever Happens
When The Lights Go Out

"Change." Pretentious psychedelia at its best. Oh, and "Hey." The whole Boingo album pretty much is good.
"Private Life", "Not My Slave," and "We Close Our Eyes" are all catchy.
The first half of Only A Lad is great.
"Flesh 'n' Blood" too.

I'm sure this has already been mentioned but...
I pick "Dead Man's Party" because it is featured in Back To School. That movie never gets old. Go with God Rodney :)
