I wake up every morning with a song stuck in my head. And now it's stuck in yours.

Big Boys
Some of my favorite lyrics ever:
So you take her to the pictures/Trying to become a fixture
Inch by inch trying to reach her/All the way through the second feature
Worrying about your physical fitness/Tell me how you got this sickness
So many double -- and triple! -- entendres in this song. Fucking love him. As to why it's in my head today: the perpetual vicissitudes of love, man.
