I don't hear much humor in the song.  It's downright ugly, what with all the

You'd figure Roger bought into this, too, since he's singing it.  Actually 
it's a wonder Pete hasn't written a few more of these little missives to 
fans.  ;)  Think we could get a few?

P.S.  My cd doesn't skip.  "Tits" is perfectly clear.
