Song Notes:
-----------
Some of these lyrics are undoubtedly incorrect, but it's extremely difficult
to figure out what is being sang during certain parts of the song, most likely
due to the low quality of the recording. I am using lyrics I've found on
various websites, but if you have a more correct interpretation of them please
send them to me.
