TR, misc. This one goes out to Jed.............

[Joe Allonby]

As a songwriter, I'm often amused by listeners' attempts at
interpreting and assigning some sort of autobiographical context to my
lyrics. They're almost always wrong. Sometimes I just make things up.
Anything related to actual incidents or people is so buried and
disguised that even the people used as models for characters would not
recognize themselves.
