please explain this song to me

[twickster]

trapezoidal jellyfish, please don’t post the entire lyrics to a song. From our rules:

@C_K_Dexter_Haven

Our sponsor, the Chicago READER, has a strict policy on respecting copyrights and copyrighted material. They don’t want their stuff used by others without permission, and so we don’t use stuff created by others without permission. Basically, The policy is : don’t do it.

It is okay to post a small snippet of song lyrics or poems or whatever, and include a link to another site which contains the complete text. But posting any material completely and verbatim is a violation of our rules and a potential violation of copyright laws.

I have left the first verse and the last chorus of the lyrics you posted. If you’d like to link to the full lyrics elsewhere, feel free to do so.

Thanks for your cooperation.
