Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Pow (song from What's up Tiger Lily?)
I've listened to several sound samples, and I have these corrections to make:

… the GUY with his finger in his nose …

… droppin' a piano from the forty-SEVENTH floor …

… standing IN the ARTSY-FARTSY uptown restaurant …

… got myself some SOY sauce …

… You FIX it up and then holy cow …

It's the chorus that eludes me. "Weepin' how" makes no sense to me, and I figure it must me wrong. Since the word "pow" doesn't appear anywhere else in the lyrics, I'm inclined to think it must be "pow" not "how"--but then "weepin' pow" doesn't make any sense either.

In the last line of the chorus, I'm not sure about "oughta." It might be "are gonna."
