San Diego Zoo Lines: 16 One of my favorite songs, perhaps because the lyrics are so intentionally bad, is "I may not have had enough of me, but I have had enogh of you" by Robert Fripp on _Exposure_. It consists of about four minutes of variations on "It's that way because that's the way it is" being screamed at you alternatingly by a male and female voice, with the title line juxtaposed in a slow lyrical manner right in the middle of the song. The worst it gets (as far as I've been able to decipher) is " In the way that that is the way it is, it is that way in that it is that way." No kidding. -- ihnp4--\ fritzz the Zebra decvax--\ "Red sand between my toes, akgua----\ a vacation in outer space" dcdwest---\ - Martian Haiku kgbvax-----\ ucbvax-------- sdcsvax -- sdcc3 -- fritzz
