Copper Lyrics

I think this song is exactly what it says: a song singing about the properties of copper.

Gold being the best, copper pales in comparison. And despite its various properties, copper will never be gold.

There's one thing I kind of wonder about: did I need the silver to be suitable?

Also, I think the lyric is "as you buckle".

@Riobard Good grief. Why would someone with the intelligence, wit and caustic humour of Albini do that? Why would anyone? It's a work of imagination, not an engineering manual. You know the band Big Black? You think it means Big, and Black, right? No, there is a third word missing, it begins with a C and ends with a K. Il Porno Star off At Action Park has one like a stallion (likely not a black one, he's Colombian).
