All songs are linked together with a purely subjective theme that can best be described by the title of a Jim Carrey movie from a few years back. The theme is a variation of one that has been used several times in the past. Enjoy! -- Tom & Rick <golq299@golq.org> ============================================================================ Blindly searching for lyrics on the Internet is not in the spirit of the GOLQs, and we disapprove of this practice.
