No Picture Matt Average	#1 by Matt at Mar 8, 2006 at 1:41 PM EST
	Oh, God knows. The last two words are about cigarettes. That much is clear. And words 17-19 are about generals in the American Civil War. The end of verse four contains some cutting satire about conformity in flamingo society. Um. Basically, all the words mean something. It's just the order they're put into that is less clear. I suspect the idea was for it work on a non-rational level, and it acheives that marvelously; furthermore, Manzanera's solo sounds like he's strangling his guitar with an ostrich, which is sublime. It's almost certainly about Glamour, of some form.

No Picture Aron Wanna Be	#3 by Aron Georgsson at Jan 15, 2007 at 10:03 PM EST
	Song is awesome. Film clip is awesome. Hideous sea hag in the audience. Bryan doing amusing hand movements and Eno looking like a complete girl. Love it.
