Break my Body:
"I'm a hung loser" (the hard loser)
"I shit forever and I never care" (shake forever)

I like that way better. Having both a large penis and chronic diarrhea, I can really relate.
Just kidding about the diarrhea. :-o

One song I had trouble understanding the lyrics to was "The Hostess With The Mostest." I thought "I'd hit the mall" was "I hate them all," and "when it was biggest in the world" was "when it was Vegas in the world."

I thought it was "Alison, goodbye". You know, the Alison girl in Bossanova.

But wasn't that song about a guy?

"Alison," I mean, not "Palace Of The Brine."

I guess Frank could still be saying goodbye to him, though.

I've got both those as well as "And the Eigth was a duplicated man" instead of Hank
