Until now I thought the line was: Oh you wouldn't want an angel watching over surprise, surprise they wouldn't wannna watch another you innocent, elegant falling to the unmagnificent lives of the dogs. It totally fits. I'm super dissapointed in my ability to use my ears. I thought it was about kids throwing themselves into the apparently wonderful but realistically, quietly desperate and desolate world of sexual maturity and the requisite self-sufficiency of adulthood; and doing so when they have the sexual development to fit in physically, but not the mental development to have any hope of doing it right. |
