that one is better than honey/money and I think works in the context of the song, which is as reflexive and self aware and it is big, loud, and silly.

besides, "the world is a vampire" is one of the all time best opening lines to a song or anything ever
at the time, all I could think when watching the video was "despite all my rage / my head still looks like an egg"

at the time it would have been an extremely tough call between Check Your Head and Siamese Dream, but honestly can't listen to Corgan's bullshit any more even the "classic" stuff.
now it's basically 3-way tie for me between CYH/ CRCR/ Mellow Gold, and those just edging out Transmissions.
i guess since CYH makes it both times i should give it the vote,,,

'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' often reminds me of the Grand Royal interview with Weird Al where a pre-fame Spike Jonez (posing as a random fan) interrupts to present a baffled Al with the golden lyric 'despite my old age/I am still making minimum wage'.
