| Yes, I stand corrected. Sting wrote this especially for Ms. Grace for this album. _________________ The jibbedy-jabber-jaw jabbing at your funny bone, umm... Skip the Ovaltine, I'd rather have my honeycomb

| This is such an elegant, sultry coda to the album.
Something of the D.Bovvie/Young Americans about it. _________________ The jibbedy-jabber-jaw jabbing at your funny bone, umm... Skip the Ovaltine, I'd rather have my honeycomb

| I was on the first ship to Peru Charted all the courses like all sailors do First to cross the Mason-Dixon line Overseeing wetbacks for good Californian wine
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again And I've done it again, done it again, done it again
I was there when Jenny Lind first sang First to feel the cold Alaskan white man First to take a trip on LSD First to vote for Roosevelt back in '33
And I've done it again, done it again, done it again And I've done it again, done it again, done it again Yes, I've seen it Yes, I've seen it

| It is over. That was very good, even though it lagged in one or two places and some of the songs went on for too long. I think that's the first time I've heard her actually singing, rather than just talking over the music. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. _________________ |
