OK this is a repost - 2/11/96! Now that the the album is out, I could fix
up the dodgy lyrics. Thanks for the lyric sheet guys :-)

A great song, it goes off live. Yes its pretty Grungy but if you`re
gonna listen to grunge, listen to the Aussie stuff! Its better than lots
of mass-marketed American music of similar genre.
Some of my lyric transcriptions look like they`re done by the Dodgy
Brothers (50 bucks Jane!*) so corrections are welcome. [Ah-ha, fixed
now :-)]
Its in 4/4.
