one really bad line

"i'll still change my underwear if that's ok with you" from 'i won't change you' and "straight from the mouth of mr. ed" from 'party in my head' - the latter being surely the most extraordinarily nonsensical tv reference since "it's like murder she wrote once i get you out them clothes" (though i luvv that one).

none of this means i think either se-b or r. kelly are great poets otherwise; just that those particular lines stick to my ribs.

or "what's on the box - Man About the House with Paula Wilcox"

True! I prefer the "orgy like club med" line from the same rhyming pattern.

Er, yes? You prefer your optical instruments smooth, trust me.

another n.o. gem is found in behind close doors: 'i feel it in my bones / i check up on the scores / i listen to the corrs / behind closed doors'

"I will be in the bar / with my head on the bar"

sounds terrible. Although if you think about it, it sort of makes sense in a funny way.

rhyming "our" with "flower"

"pretext" with "text"... it's the same bloody word, just with more letters before it!

i will be at the bar with my head on the bar...

"and I would hold you in the night.....we used to make it 'till daylight"

I cringe every time I hear that insipid bit
