I sold those books long ago.

I have a different take on this, given how rabidly Stevie defends her lyrics. I'll bet some A&R guy came in and said, "Whoa! A song with 2 different choruses? We can't have that - everyone is stoned - no one will be able to remember all those extra words. The song won't sell!" Or something along those lines.

Either that or it was Lindsey.

And welcome Dreamz!

Chuckie, I love your signature.

History of the World, Part I is one of my favorite movies ever and that scene is classic. I also love where she screams-

"Would you please step on the same feet at the same time!!! My tits are falling off!!!!"
