I listened to a 30-sec sample of Crystal Ball.

Where's the machine gun sounds and voice over saying, "When the Army raised the enlistment age, it was 42. 4-4-4-4-42. 4-4-4-4-42." (Paul Hardcastle reference to his song "19".)

you know what's funny. when my friend first introduced this song to me he was like, omg you have to hear this song. after the first verse, i got bored with it and started singing along, except i replaced the words, "somewhere only we know" with "double ended dildo." it was hilarious, and he got furious. you should try it, it's hours of fun.

that's fucking genius! i can't believe you don't think that's funny. it changes the entire premise of the song. so like when the effeminate pre pubescent lead singer squeals out, "i'm getting older and i need something to rely on" you can think double ended dildo. lolololol......no?
