Can't help about the shape I'm in.
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin. Don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to.

2. I am a huge Peter Green fan
He is my all time favorite guitar player and one of truly greatest blues players

3. Dammit
I started to post the lyrics to "Green Manalishi," except I CAN'T REMEMBER THEM ANY MORE!

Okay, it's official, I'm middle aged.

Grumble mumble bitch gripe, I'm gonna go take my Lipitor now :cry:

6. Now when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks

And the night is so black that the darkness cooks
And you come creeping around, making me do things I don’t want to do

Can’t believe that she needs my love so bad
Come sneaking around, trying to drive me mad
Busting in all my dreams, making me see things I don’t want to see

’cause you’re the green manalishi with the two-pronged crown
All night dragging us up, or you’re bringing us down
Just taking my love, and slip away
Leaving me here, trying to keep from following you

7. Thank you
Used to do that song in a high school power trio, using complicated chord voicings on a 12-string guitar to approximate what Peter Green and two other talented guys were doing. (And this was before I'd even heard Rush, with Alex Lifeson using the same techniques.)

Also I sang something different in the last verse:
'Cause you're the Green Manalishi with the two pronged crown
All my trying is up, and all your bringing is down...

5. Now when I talked to God, I knew he'd understand.
He said, "Stick by me, and I'll be your guiding hand."
But don't ask me what I think of you.
I might not give the answer that you want me to.

Love that song!
