    It's subtitled "A Musical Apology"; it's one of my favorite
    funny songs. The first few lines:

    I didn't mean it when I said, "I hope the cable ...
    in the elevator ... snaps -- when you get on board."
    And I was joking when I said, "I hope you crack your head,
    and get mangled by the downstairs revolving door."

    Hmmmm.... Looks like we can tie at least two other threads into this one.

    By my memory - - I had a Friend in high school who had the Pink Floyd album that was EITHER titled- or had a song with the title of: "The Sound Of Several Species Of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together In A Cave And Grooving With A Pict", some
    referring to it as either the Album or song simply reffered to as "ANIMALS", for that reason. (Thank you ALL for helping me with that title, either way.) That was back in 1987 though, when I graduated, so my memory could be quite furry as well (wink,
    wink/nudge, nudge), FUZZY!

    Further back - - my Sister & I wanted to memorize what was in the '77 Guinness Book of World Records as the world's longest medical term. This beast was thankfully named from someone else as "Black Lung":

    Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

    What was really tough for her & I both, was trying to pronounce it based on the pronunciation we saw in a medical journal. So we broke it down like this:

    "Pneumo-no-ultra-micro-scopic-silico-volcano-coniosis"
