Grand Guignol

Story Behind The Song

Le Theatre du Grand-Guignol was where Parisians used to go to get shocked. They specialized in naturalistic horror plays that were over-dramatized, ridiculous, and over the top. It now comes to mean any gruesome or gory drama or event.

Lyrics

You love the drama,
You play the role,
and you'll do anything,
to get my goat.
and when you bleed some,
it's a horror show,
You think I'm crazy,
well you should know.

There's always something wrong with you,
Someone's always done something to you.
Stop being such a huge hassle.
Your big exaggerations,
always lead to a confrontation,
This little act is getting old,
you're the Grand Guignol.

The sky is always falling down,
I can't take you anywhere downtown,
It's a slapfest or a catfight,
don't you know anyone you like?
You're making threats so the stage is set for another breakdown.

There's always something wrong with you,
Someone's always done something to you.
Stop being such a huge hassle.
Your big exaggerations,
always lead to a confrontation,
This little act is getting old,
you're the Grand Guignol.

You love the drama,
You play the role,
and you'll do anything,
to get my goat.
and when you bleed some,
it's a horror show,
You think I'm crazy,
well you should know.

The sky is always falling down,
I can't take you anywhere downtown,
It's a slapfest or a catfight,
don't you know anyone you like?
The stage is set,
off go the bets,
You're making threats,
you're killing pets,
in another breakdown.

There's always something wrong with you.
What am I gonna do with you?
Stop being such a huge hassle.
This little act is getting old.
You're the Grand Guignol.
