i can't believe it's been out 20 years already --
it is just so so so amazing,
an elegant, human masterpiece !
various lyrics from this album
often resurface for me--
"My father worked in construction
It's not something for which I'm suited
Oh - what is something for which you are suited?
Getting out of here"
"The trouble with personalities, they're too wrapped up in style
It's too personal, they're in love with their own guile
They're like illegal aliens trying to make a buck
They're driving gypsy cabs but they're thinking like a truck"
etc.
