OK, I looked this disc up and I see their is something called 
a "clean" version. At the risk of sounding...well, like my dad. 
Whats a "Clean" version?? Lyrics, Sound??? I'm confused and clearly 
and totally out of it.

Regarding Sparks...I've been playing that again lately. Great disc! 
One of the reasons I love it is the humor. Several tracks cause me to 
laugh, no matter how many times I hear them...("Ugly guys with 
Beautiful Girls", ""Suburban Homeboy and "I Married Myself" come to 
mind).

PS: Actually, I've been putting together a CDR of songs that are 
clever/funny as an X-mas present for a friend of mine. I'll include 
at least two of the Sparks songs...
Any suggestions are welcome!!
