The good thing about these lyrics is that unless you know what all those
bizarre fantasy names are, you can`t work out what the words are so they
never interfere with the music. I did try working out some of the lines
but they sort of ended up garbled "See the amazing super fly".
Star Cannibal is one of my contenders for poor lyrics as well as Studnik
Stan and that track on Sonic Attack which starts abbuu-dabbuu abbuu-
dabbuu. Its the one with the "The're trying to rob you of your right to
communicate".
To balance all that, some great lyrics:
Steppenwolf
Quark, Strangeness and Charm
Spirit of the Age
or to simplify it, anything Bob wrote I suppose!
Mark,
who's just managed to write something without mentioning Levitation.
