I just looked up the lyrics to this. I've always thought it was "with four hundred children, and a crop in the field". Turns out it's "four hungry children" which makes a lot more sense.

Dvorak
"She used to be a diplomat
But now she's down the laundromat"

(Spandau Ballet - Highly Strung)

And to be meta:

From gnashing teeth he'd no defence
But made it up onto the fence

Is it like nirvana?
Hit me harder

[Calvin Harris - How Deep Is Your Love. Disappointing. I always thought is was "Is it like Nevada?"]

Desree's song 'Life' was once voted worst lyric of all time.

Mostly for this bit, I think:
"I don't want to see a ghost
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast"

Sigh
Reminded of Half Man Half Biscuit, although they are entirely forgivable:

Slowly I picked my life up
Now I go and pick the wife up
She works at Marks & Spencer’s
La la la Lech Walesas

The Spotify yacht playlist has just thrown up "Biggest Part of Me" by Ambrosia. Oh my.

There's a new sun arisin'
