I'm the Ghost of Murdered Corky



In this song, Rudy has found out who Corky's murderers are, so he gets revenge on them by whacking their knees with a baseball bat. See, the picture is of Rudy with a nylon on his head so he won't be recognized. In the song, Corky is freaking out a little bit because he's worried that he might have inadvertently influenced Rudy to do that deed. But then, in the end, he realizes it probably doesn't matter all that much.

 This is last week's song if you play it backwards.

For anyone new to this blog, the album I'm discussing is based on the movie, Skins. (Spoiler Alert)... It follows this character, Corky Red Tail, into the afterlife cuz he gets murdered in the beginning of the movie. Then he's joined by Mogie and Verdell, who both die of alcoholism in one way or another. The three of them work together to try to get a message to Corky's mom that he's okay in the afterlife. The most likeliest candidate to do that is Rudy, Mogie's brother, because all three of them knew Rudy when they were alive, so they're all connected to him in one way or another.
