well tool does love 666,
Maynards dick starts At 6:66 or 7:06
the gaping lotus experienve starts at track 6 about 6:06
so maybe they just have a weord facination with the number six
they just like to poke fun at the fact that in the 90s they were considered satanic. i used to hear that shit all of the time. "cannibals, rapists, satanists..." They just like to fuck with the common american's (typical redneck's) head.

Okay, I'm too lazy to read all the above, so I'll just plug my 2 cents in here.
I was always curious what phone number he was dialing in the first place, but I never really considered any hidden messages in the option's tones. However, if we find the phone number, it could be something funny like 1-800-EAT-SHIT or something
Also, The touch tone telephone works as follows:
Each button produces 2 tones at once. Down each column, the first tone is the same, but the second one is different. Across each row, the second tone is the same but the first tone is different.
stop talking about over thinking and over analyzing, this is not a lateralus forum
If you over think about something then you put more energy into thinking about it then actually doing it, thus you are seperating your body to do what your mind is thinking. You mind and body should be working in union, think to much about the goal, you don't experience the true greatness...the transportation or journey to that goal.

even from the first listen, I got the impression that because the damn answering machine wouldn't respond accordingly, the dialer got pissed and just hammered 6-6-6 for fun...
maybe that doesn't make sense to anyone else, but I know I've done like-minded things out of exasperation...

I hate the fact that everyone assumes that every true rock band on the planet has some sort of hidden, satanic messages in their songs. There is definitely a 666 reference in this song, but I'm sure that TOOL is simply making fun of this assumption.

OVERTHINKING OVERANALIZING SEPARATES THE BODY FROM THE MIND!
Thats the dumbest thing you could say. no offense but those lyrics dont even mean that you shouldn't over think. Its illustrating the difference between thought and instinct. I am fed up with people using that to prove a point that doesnt even make sense. seriously though what is your point? Stop thinking everyone, its dangerous.
Absolutely! I perfectly agree, and will add: to me these lines go a little further saying: don't think of how emotions would feel like when they might come, feel them when they come! in perfect attitude with the message the rest of the song transfers. i hope i expressed myself clearly enough!
just not using your head will lead you to your own destruction!!!!
