Spanning the years, from nonsense rhymes to ambiguous disclosures of hard found wisdom... riddles and zen koans... obscure meanings that have a universal "ring"... and just plain goofy garnishing...

Do songs really need to ultimately make sense unto themselves? Contextually speaking, sure... History books will need to be written... But is the intent of a song always absolute clarity?... or inevetably catharsis and general healing and knowledge?
