Mtv, I'll take both of those tracks if you have them.

BTW: Thanks Terim! That site will save me from burning the rest of the LP, and the sound quality is better than my conversion. I wish I would finally figure out how to minimalize the snap crackles and pops.

[b]Jet Boy Jet Girl[/b]
(to the back beat of "Ca Plane Pour Moi")
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_Boy,_Jet_Girl

Can you tell what’s on my mind
She’s with him it’s driving me wild
I’d like to hit him on the head until he’s dead
The sight of blood is such a high
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head

We made it on a ballroom blitz
I took his arms and kissed his lips
He looked at me with such a smile my face turned red
We booked a room into the ritz
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head


Jet boy jet girl
I’m gonna take you ’round the world
Jet boy I’m gonna make you penetrate
I’m gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Jet boy jet girl


I know I’m only just fifteen
I like to kick I like to scream
And even if I had a kick or two in bed with him
You know it’s just a dream
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head


Jet boy jet girl
I’m gonna take you ’round the world
Jet boy I’m gonna make you penetrate
I’m gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Jet boy jet girl


The other day what a suprise
I saw him with some other guys
Got leave his dress off with a girl around his neck
I could have cried with both my eyes
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head


And if and when I make it though
Or if my brains black and blue
And when the world trusts you to foget all that
You know I’ll still remember you
Ooooohhhh
You gave me head

Jet boy jet girl
I’m gonna take you ’round the world
Jet boy I’m gonna make you penetrate
I’m gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Jet boy jet girl

[b]...and the English translation of "Ca Plane Pour Moi"[/b]

Wham!
Bam!
Someone poured whiskey on my cat, Splash
And lit him
He went "boof"
While he was on my bed

I tried to put him out with a broom
My goitre problem got in the way (I sleep naked?)
Very quickly

Ouch
Ouch
Ouch
Ouch

In four colours

Ey up!
One morning
There's loot at my place
It's my shit wrapped in plastic
Horse's in fishnets
Spare a drop in one's mouth

It's a very grand beer dance
I like my beer in a big glass
And spew

Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo

Come on you Indians in your igloos

That's life for me
Repeat twice...

Me
Repeat four times...

That's life for me
Repeat twice...

Ey up!
The mother
Is larger than a panel
What a vibration
And a voyage through passion

Be my dirty passenger
And ride in my lime Combi
You are King of the divan

Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

I'm King of the divan
That's life for me
Repeat twice...

Ey up!
Occupy me
Touch my trinkets
Touch my little house plant
It's not today that I wish to talk of tambourines
Or the head of a mannequin

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

That's life for me
Repeat thrice...

Ey up!
My Nana's the best
She's bizzarre
Marry me
And carry my case
Lever me onto the bar
My life force will come for a grand cocktail

Oh yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

Dance on the plate
That's life for me
My life for me

Thanks, TragicMagic. I'll go over my set-up, and throw some questions to you. Any advice with all this technical hoo-ha is always appreciated. And MTV, if you have "Heart to Heart", please let me know. I have the video, but not the track, and I'm a freakin' completist.
