Subject: RE: Can The Serpent Be Housebroken From: jacqui.c Date: 22 Mar 06 - 11:57 AM It's only a very small portion of the song - not enough to get the meaning but it is to the tune of 'The Circle'. |

Subject: RE: Can The Serpent Be Housebroken From: GUEST,ClaireBear Date: 22 Mar 06 - 12:26 PM Just for the heck of it, I got down what I could from the sample. Here's what I heard: ...serpent be housebroken? He'd rather die, buddy, he'd rather die. When the turnstile won't take-a my token, Pass right by, buddy, pass right by. Circumnavigation is a mighty fine motion But it's all been tried, buddy, it's all been tried. But circumcision in the cloakroom... It's an intriguing snippet, but hardly enlightening about the whole noise. Claire |
