"Sometimes I think that love is just a tumor / You've got to cut it out." sings Declan | ''"Sometimes I think that love is just a tumor / You've got to cut it out."'' sings Declan MacManus, fingernails chewed to the nub, the spittle of distaste gathering at the corner of his mouth. Twenty-three years old — knock-kneed, spastic and hating the whole world — Elvis wrote the greatest spiteful/insightful love songs ever to get under your skin or into your shower. His homemade 45, ''Honky Took Demos'', showed Elvis intently scribbling with a gigantic fountain pen on one side, and on the other a woman in fishnets and black leather, spread-eagled and blindfolded. Sums it up, really, if the lyric, ''"I don't wanna he your lover / Just wanna be your victim"'' doesn't. He once said he was inspired by "revenge and guilt." He left out neuroses, sexual insecurity, hostility, obsessive aggression, disappointment, doubt, fear, contempt, clear spirits, and the constant battle to keep his heart far from the soiled sleeve of his dress shirt. | ||
