Very good. I had previously thought about choosing Tokyo Rose, but there would have been challenges about her identity.

Well, am I defecting?
Well, I don't know
I fell under the spell
Of Tokyo Rose
All those hot nights in the jungle
With the rockets' red glare
I heard all of those bombs
They were everywhere

Come and check out my condition
Honey, I'm in love with your transmission
I waited up for you every night
I hear your voice, and the jungle's bright

Everybody wants
To be unopposed
We leave the straight and narrow
For the lowest of roads
We all need somebody
To lie to us, I suppose
That's why everybody needs
A Tokyo Rose

Come and check out my condition
Honey, I'm in love with your transmission
I waited up for you every night
I hear your voice, and the jungle's bright

-- Tokyo Rose, VoL

New round up soon.
