Once on my college radio station I layered a sound effects track of high-pitched screams over “She’s Having My Baby”. It helped, but not enough. ---

> [@Biggirl](#): > > Patches. It makes me smile because it reminds me of the first time I ever heard it. My mom had taken me and my little brother over to visit one of her friends. The friend had a daughter who was a few years older than me. She was also a complete bitch, but because our moms were friends, we were always getting stuck with each other. That particular day, my brother and I were sitting around in her room as she played records, one of them being “Patches”, which she proclaimed her favorite song. Shortly afterward, I tried to climb up onto her bed, putting my knee down on something hard…CRRRR-ACK! Goodbye, Patches. ---

> [@Morgyn](#): > > A relatively new song, with way too much airplay: _Daughters_. I’ll second that! Way too much airplay, and it seems like it’s trying to be sappy, but it really doesn’t make much sense to me: Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers who turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too ---

Well, there are some truly horrific songs mentioned so far, but only **Mamma Zappa** has approached the horror of an eternity that goes… _It’s a world of laughter A world of tears…_ AAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUGH! :eek: The world is WAY too small to have both me and that song in it.
