[net.music] Where is this quote from?

valerie@sdcc3.UUCP (The Beast Who Shouted Love) (12/26/84)

[]
Can anyone tell me what song this quote is excerpted from?
A pointer to even a *possible* lyricist would be great -- 
any leads at all, even wild guesses, would be VERY much 
appreciated.

Thanks a million.  Please, of course, reply by mail only.
