(Song to Peter Gabriels - In Your Eyes)

Ratty, he get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this SETI still wont start
this is when he wants to touch himself
especially in his car
but whichever way he might go
Seattle traffic wont let him go far

And back to werk, he'll return
and all three cawks, so soon will burn
without some lotion, because of pride
It will hurt from the inside

Mow'in box
its light and its sweet
Mow'in Box
he is now complete
mow'in box
He see's the doorway to palli's churches
mow'in box
has no lunch so now he searches
mow'in box
he likes it light and sweet
mow'in box
oh, I wish I could be that complete
I never had it so light and
so sweet like he has mow'in box

Self Love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this lotion keeps fading away
Lawncare with Ratty is a matter of pure survival
He wishes he had 9 inches to keep him awake and alive

And back to werk, he'll return
and all three cawks, so soon will burn
without some lotion, because of pride
It will hurt from the inside

Mow'in box
its light and its sweet
Mow'in Box
he is now complete
mow'in box
He see's the doorway to palli's churches
mow'in box
has no lunch so now he searches
mow'in box
he likes it light and sweet
mow'in box
oh, I wish I could be that complete
I never had it so light and
so sweet like he has mow'in box
Mow'in box Mow'in box
Mow'in box Mow'in box
Mow'in box Mow'in box

Damn man...I can't get the original melody going in my head correctly. I'm gonna have to find the mp3 and do a sing-along.

BTW: I'm an old skewl Peter Gabriel fan. His double album "Plays Live" is the first tape I wore out in my Walkman by eventually stretching it out.

Jeffrey Gaines does an awesome cover of this song. Gabriel does rock, this is one of my favorite songs.
