Looks like the UK will introduce sweeping changes to their laws in order give non-heterosexuals (ie, homo or bisexual persons) the right to marry... Shouldn't the US be called to support the UK's social initiatives since we called for them to support our wars? Tsk, tsk...

different worlds may seem so strange
at core or more we're just rearranged
i've laughed it off everytime i watch tv
there's lots of people who aren't me

in a village off somewhere
there's people who just don't care
about lots of things in this life
and i know they're probably fine

so what now to say when

i've missed you since you've moved
on nothing really can you prove

i'd like to stay and chat for a while
i'd like to stay and laugh for a while
i'd like to stay and then go for a while
