    Police is the right band, Splunge. Here's two more random lines from the song:

    Looking at the walls of a prison cell

    Looking like something that the cat brought in


    Somebody should be able to get this -- sheesh!

    Getting warmer . . .

    (By the way, what you wrote is not the name of the song - it's King of Pain - which is not the song I'm quoting from -- different album)

    In case I'm confirmed correct (and I'm pretty sure I will be), someone can feel free to invoke the IJ rule before 24 hours are up since my time on the Boards has ben pretty sporatic as of late.

    "Sporatic"? You mean, like a fungus reproducing?

    Well, time to invoke the IJ rule.

    Sweet Lucy was a dancer
    But none of us would chance her
    Because she was a Samurai
    She made electric shadows
    Beyond our fingertips
    And none of us could reach that high

    Here's something I got to know just recently.

    This is grand, folks, give it a try!

    The sun is up the world is flat
    Damn good address for a rat
    The smell of blood
    The Drone of flies
    You know what to do if
    The baby cries

    It's Tom Waits. Can't remember the song name but I think the album it is on is called "Real Gone". Friend of mine is a huge Tom Waits fan.

    I think that this suffices. It's Hoist That Rag from the Real Gone album.

    *Ting* The bell rings again. Someone else with a nice quote?

    Oh what! I will just post one, I guess.

    There was a bright light and the shattering of shop windows. The bomb in the baby carriage was wired to the radio

    Tricky perhaps, but it shouldn't be that hard.

    I've never heard it referred to as that actually.
