i was once told via email that the amount of fun i would have on an upcoming outing directly corresponded to number of words i could remember (in order) from this song's lyrics.
i was surprised with how many i (reluctantly) remembered, and i did in fact have fun that day. the activities did not, however, involve any "shaking" or "lurching."
this is the worst idea for a children's play IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
Music video
The associated music video sets the song's lyrics as the script for a series of one-act plays performed by school children. Throughout, the scenes of the performance are intercut with scenes of the Crash Test Dummies performing the song at stage side.
The first act, set at a city intersection, tells the story of a young boy who was involved in a car crash. His hair turned white due to the force of the crash.
The second act tells the story of a girl that never used to "change with the girls in the change room", until one day the other girls (portrayed in the act as three inquisitive detectives) force her to change with them, only to discover that her body was covered in birthmarks.
The final act tells of a boy that lives under the strict discipline of his austere parents and how his family attends a church, where "shaking" and "lurching" happens during the services.
