I Love the 90s!

Oh yeah, bitches, this is a good one.
From the 1994 album Rubberneck, it’s the Toadies with Possum Kingdom.
It’s been long disputed as to what the song is referring to. Some people think vampires, other say it’s about a murder at Lake Possum Kingdom in Texas.
In 1995 Toadies lead singer Todd Lewis told RIP magazine, “It’s just a story I heard long ago; it’s just a really cool, eerie lake, and some stuff I heard and some stuff I just make up. I tend to do that. They dammed up this big river up there, and it’s got all these spooky names like Hell’s Gate. It’s really cool.”
Lewis went on to say that there was a real stalker in Tyler, Texas who became a folk hero, “I was down there for Thanksgiving, and after the family got through talking about who died and who’s got cancer and all those things that families talk about, they started talking about this guy who was peeping in windows and started breaking into people’s houses. He’d go out of his way to be seen, and everyone is like armed to the teeth, and he’s like tapping on windows. The whole family was freaked out about it.”
Come to your own conclusions, but no matter what it’s about, and however dark it may be, this song is one of the greatest of all time.
