[UA] a moment

<<<So, I'm listening to The Terminator soundtrack and on comes a track, as it begins I
notice its playtime is '3:33'. More than that, the track itself is called 'Burnin' in
the Third Degree'. Includes lyrics such as, "You'll never let me go, I'm your prisoner"
and a throughly riveting chorus.>>>

Heh. I have moments like that with my usual playlist. One that springs to mind is
'Xodiak' by Geezer (with a playtime that seems to alternate between 3:33 and 3:34,
depending on your source). Here are the lyrics, and I'll let everyone decide if it's
suitably UA.

As a matter of fact, the whole album ('Black Science' by Geezer) is very, very UA. The
entire album lyrics are available here
<http://www.sci.fi/~theblack/music/lyrics/g-blacks.htm>. I encourage everyone to go out
and buy this CD, not only for the UA value but because it's actually pretty good.

I'd like to highlight the tracks "Mysterons", "Area Code 51", "Among the Cybermen",
"Unspeakable Elvis" and "Northern Wisdom" for your UA listening pleasure.

XODIAK
Steve, Steven Xodiak
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t never coming back

Screenage Cyberspaceman
A Psychic to the stars
He liked to scan their fortune
And read their Tarot cards
But then one day a stranger
Took him by surprise

Steve, Steven Xodiak
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t never coming back
Screenage psychopath
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t ever coming back

She said she wants to be a god
An angel dressed in flares
She hacked away his future
And then she threw him down the stairs
Now Steve´s a real spaceman
He lives up in the stars.

Steve, Steven Xodiak
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t never coming back
Screenage psychopath
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t ever coming back

>From Ectoplasm City
Consulting from afar
Steven tells your fortune
Don´t need no Tarot cards
Just call the Sci-Kick Network
On 1-900-M.A.R.S.

Steve, Steven Xodiak
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t never coming back
Screenage psychopath
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t ever coming back
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t ever coming back
He ain´t never coming, he ain´t ever coming back.
