[net.music] Et tu, Chuq?

From an article by Chuq von Rospach in net.singles:

> Woke up this morning don't believe what I saw. Hundred billion bottles 
> washed up on the shore. Seems I never noted being alone. Hundred billion
> castaways looking for a call.

Seems I'm not alone in not understanding Sting's vocalisations.  The real
words, as Steve Marcovici here at pyux?? pointed out to me are:

Woke up this morning don't believe what I saw. Hundred billion bottles 
washed up on the shore. Seems I'm not alone in being alone. Hundred billion
castaways looking for a home.

As Steve said to me, the real words are much more appropriate (and more
poignant) than my misinterpretations of them.  (Strange how Chuq and I
made almost the same misinterpretations, there...)
