Hey, it's what they teach us to do in English class at high school -
what do you expect us to do? IT'S A LONG TIME BETWEEN CONCERTS, BUB! Last

Count sheep? (That can't "possibly be fun"!)
The point to a great deal of PT's songs is in the lyrics. Yes,
"Slit Skirts" is kinda catchy, but there's a meaning behind the words. If
you miss the meaning, the song is just a catchy tune!

a goat and watching Ann-Margaret flunce around the screen.
Not that I don't like the Tommy movie, but I'd much rather think
about something useful and mind-expanding - like the intense lyrics for
