Disclaimer:  Like all my favorite Seattle bands (and many more
from around the globe), this singer can be darned unintelligible,
so if I got some of the words wrong I'll apologize in advance (if
I did get them right, this song's got some pretty weird lyrics).
If anyone has any corrections to the words (or the music for that
matter), please e-mail me and I'll make the corrections and re-
submit the song to the archive.  Thanks in advance for any help.

Good playing,
