...and this Mellotron voice is so wonderfully out of tune that it reminds me 
of how picking a nylon string guitar should sound, especially after getting 
really stoned and eating a half bottle of orange "Tang" 'cause there was nothing 
else and then picking up the old acoustic and trying to impress your friends 
but being totally tone deaf cause you're so wasted and you can't get the 
tuning just right but it sounds OK anyway 'cause your so high and so is everyone 
else in the room. 

At least so I've been told.
