...says PISS OFF. To the north, lights from the Woomera range and tracking station, used for guiding American astronauts, glow in the night. To the east, the moonlit rails turn molten in the Popsicle-or-ange sunrise. This is the time of day a kangaroo likes to lick the dew off the steel track.

Beck's solo explored the variations on one lick, after exploring several angles of single notes to discover that lick. The vocals on "Plynth (Water Down the Drain)" were ordinary--the vocal harmonies much tastier than the vocal leads.
