Take some good songs, some not so good, get Placebo to cover them, and what do you have? A steaming pile of shite!
She don't like violence
But she can throw them things so don't let your guard down
Her thighs are soft but her eyes are
You can't just try tell her c'mon now
For all the people searching for the full lyrics, here they are from ohhla.com
Lady don't take no shit insist on respect
Insist to walk around like a woman
She won't speak less it's something worth sayin
Don't play, the girl take herself so serious
People stare curious
She got a natural way, her hips sway furious, yet luxorious
Carries herself like the cutest most purdiest
Thing you've seen, this side of the bay
Go about her business so purpose-fully
She got razor sharp wit and she just won't quit
Flauntin it, body built like a house made outta bricks
She got the smile, the style and finesse
And bounded with the blessed and profound intellect
Select few have ever seen her butt naked
And they too wanna see the rep protected, cause...
She don't like violence
But she can throw them things so don't let your guard down
Her thighs are soft but her eyes are
You can't just try tell her c'mon now
She did surgery with daisies
Alice Walker, Nicki Giovanni, o honey
Say she wanna be a doctor,
And I'll be some damn sure she could be teachin somebody
School to street smarts, girl ain't no dummy one
He can not make it back while then it ain't about the money
The boys and guys [???] act funny whenever the queen's coming around the town yeah
Sweet top, London, Rome, outta sight, outta mind with the freaky shh
That she can't quite see, but she can't quite know
And it lies in the gentle, come better than that
Wherever you took my head baby send it home, send it on home
I really think I lost my head cause this females on
All the clerks wanna offer your help, all the folks compliment your style
Little children wanna jump in your lap, girl I wanna do that myself
She ain't known [???] she's commited since, and ain't finished shit
But, because of her dis-po-sit-ion, she ain't subject to crit-i-cizm
That's why the other women started mimicking,
She ain't tripping off no images,
Her interests are all limitless, she ain't limited by inhibitions lord
Bout miss imagination, she wants this [???] of me jack
That had me out in space, somewhere just floatin not knowing the way back
You know how I can't always rhythm, everything that you're saying bout have the time
When I hear your voice you support your boys,
But all of that body language girl it's alright
It's alright, it's alright now, a little ride in your [???]
How'd you get so neat
And just when I think I know your style, I notice some I ain't been
Don't give me no silent treatment girl
We tried to sing your name in latin baby
Ain't that my obligation, no no no
[laced vocals that fade out...]

Blimey this bloke is obsessed with the NME. Could do with dropping the royal "we" though.
Microsoft Buys Some 3DO 'High Heat' Rights - Microsoft Corp. said on Friday it acquired the rights to baseball video game "High Heat"...
"Although Microsoft has the game engine that makes up the graphics and all the cool stuff 'High Heat' can do, it does not have a right to use Major League Baseball trademarks (or) likenesses," Geenen (the attorney for Major League Baseball Properties) told Reuters.
Geenen said that even if Microsoft has the appropriate licenses for "Inside Pitch," it would still need new licenses if it rebuilt "Pitch" using the "High Heat" engine or if it scrapped "Pitch" entirely in favour of continuing "High Heat" as-is.
How on earth can they stop MS from using whatever game engine they wish for a licensed game?
Found a nice new cover:
Adult Children of Daily Mail Readers - an example post: I've just been reading todays article on EU laws against sexism (p34-5) and all I can say is I cannot believe a single word of this paranoid crap!... They dedicated the second page to some crap sexist jokes, with an attack on feminists reserved for the last joke....

Interestingly the IP address resolves to microsoft.

Survival Guide for taking a dump at work. We've all been there but don't like to admit it. We've all kicked back in our cubicles and suddenly felt something brewing down below. As much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise, the WORKPOO is inevitable. For those who hate pooing at work, following is the Survival Guide for taking a dump at work.
CROP DUSTING: When farting, you walk really fast around the office so
the smell is not in your area and everyone else gets a whiff but doesn't
know where it came from. Be careful when you do this. Do not stop until the
full fart has been expelled. Walk an extra 30 feet to make sure the smell
has left your pants.
FLY BY: The act of scouting out a bathroom before pooping. Walk in and
check for other poopers. If there are others in the bathroom, leave and come
back again. Be careful not to become a FREQUENT FLYER. People may become
suspicious if they catch you constantly going into the bathroom.
ESCAPEE: A fart that slips out while taking a leak at the urinal or
forcing a poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of
embarrassment. If you release an escapee, do not acknowledge it. Pretend
it did not happen. If you are standing next to the farter in the urinal,
pretend you did not hear it. No one likes an escapee. It is
uncomfortable for all involved. Making a joke or laughing makes both parties
feel uneasy.
JAILBREAK: When forcing a poop, several farts slip out at a machine gun
pace. This is usually a side effect of diarrhea or a hangover. If this
should happen, do not panic. Remain in the stall until everyone has left
the bathroom to spare everyone the awkwardness of what just occurred.
COURTESY FLUSH: The act of flushing the toilet the instant the poop hits
the water. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the
bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME.
WALK OF SHAME: Walking from the stall, to the sink, to the door after
you have just stunk up the bathroom. This can be a very uncomfortable moment
if someone walks in and busts you. As with farts, it is best to pretend
that the smell does not exist. Can be minimized with the use of the COURTESY
FLUSH.
OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPER: A colleague who poops at work and is damn
proud of it. You will often see an Out Of The Closet Pooper enter the
bathroom with a newspaper or magazine under their arm. Always look around
the office for the Out Of The Closet Pooper before entering the bathroom.
SAFE HAVENS: A seldom used bathroom somewhere in the building where you
can least expect visitors. Try floors that are predominantly of the opposite
sex. This will reduce the odds of a same-sex pooper entering your
bathroom.
TURD BURGLAR: Someone who does not realize that you are in the stall and
tries to force the door open. This is one of the most shocking and
vulnerable moments that can occur when taking a poop at work. If this
occurs, remain in the stall until the Turd Burglar leaves. This way you
will avoid all uncomfortable eye contact.
CAMO-COUGH: A phony cough that alerts all new entrants into the bathroom
that you are in a stall. This can be used to cover-up a WATERMELON, or
to alert potential Turd Burglars. Very effective when used in conjunction
with an ASTAIRE.
ASTAIRE: A subtle toe-tap that is used to alert potential Turd Burglars
that you are occupying a stall. This will remove all doubt that the stall is
occupied. If you hear an Astaire, leave the bathroom immediately so the
pooper can poop in peace.
WATERMELON: A poop that creates a loud splash when hitting the toilet
water. This is also an embarrassing incident. If you feel a Watermelon
coming on, create a diversion. See CAMO-COUGH.
HAVANA OMELET: A case of diarrhea that creates a series of loud splashes
in the toilet water. Often accompanied by an Escapee. Try using a
Camo-Cough with an Astaire.
UNCLE TED: A bathroom user who seems to linger around forever. Could
spend extended lengths of time in front of the mirror or sitting on the pot.
An Uncle Ted makes it difficult to relax while on the crapper, as you
should always wait to poop when the bathroom is empty. This benefits you as
well as the other bathroom attendees
