    This is what I'd LIKE to post, map-themed ...
    Go bid the needle his dear north forsake,
    to which with trembling reverence it doth bend.
    ... but nobody'd ever get it. So, OK, lemme think, hmmm ...

    LOL not the bible. A beautiful song from a 17th century poem.

    Alright, here's my challenge: it's a vague reference to the fact that I've never got into the CWPB. Oh well ...
    You've taken your half out of the middle
    Time and time again
    But now I'm damned if I'll give you an inch
    'Til I get even

    I remember seeing the video on HBO when it came out. Took me forever to find the album. The song I wanted to quote from, from that album, never charted :\

    If I had copied the lyrics off the web, google fu would return more pages about the artist. The world apparently thinks that the singer is saying "damned if I'll give you and itch" ... whatever that means.

    You guys ever peruse the "misheard lyrics" sites? Some LOL gems in there!

    I think it's a very good little song. But there's no accounting for taste. "It's good if you like it!"

    Well, I think that was 48 hours ... a second point for me?
    But I need 15 more hours to come up with a semi-map-related song.
    So keep guessing
