My husband and I listen to tons of CDs on road-trips, one of which is by Pearl Jam. Took us a few trips to figure out what the song really was about when we thought they were singing either "Low-Flying Version of a Pelican" or "You're a Fine Version of a Pelican" (it's "Glorified Version of a Pellet Gun"), but we still like it our way.
