i thought that song was about christ...
Sorry to get off topic here. Eulogy
came from the inspiration that Maynard drew from Bill Hicks' personal beliefs and performances. If anyone thinks it has nothing to do with Bill Hicks, you are wrong and do not know of Maynard's admiration for him. Jesus Christ was my first impression until a true Tool-ie told me about Maynard's fascination with Bill Hicks......interperate what you want from it but it's not the obvious. If you give a damn, check out this forum post:
http://disc.server.com/discussion.cgi?disc=178164;article=10128;title=TOOL;date_query=1063306243Maynard's lyrics are not always what they seem....check out Prison Sex and tell me what you think. Do those lyrics make him gay? It's all about something else....not exactly verbatim. Yes, part of Eulogy is directed at someone else, but it's mainly about Hicks, IMO.
My 2 cents off topic on Eulogy by Tool.
I'll add Bill Cosby to my list of favs

Rosie O'Donnell
