Not the _original_ lyrics, but a "live version" variation. Still 5 globes, though. :)

@JWJr Yeah, I didn't use the original 1980 version, but the 1986 version that they re-released on their Singles album. It was the version I had to transcribe. It only really differs in two small places, by adding one word extra word.

Yeah, I can see the difference. I got all of it except I was completely lost on what went in between "that" and "book."

I think that the whole Nabokov thing is one of the worst lyrical turns of phrase in classic rock, up there with "there were plants and birds and rocks and things" and "I kind of lose my mind, yeah"
