        Sorry to pick up such an old thread, but I've been away... I
started to really like 'Hammer Back' once I decided it was satirical, but
is this something we can say about every song on the album? I'm not sure
'Damaged' isn't supposed to be sincere... What really worried me was the
page on the fan club website where John Shirley explains his lyrics...
Surely one of the more unnecessary things on the web?
