Some of PW's best lyrics give a single word or phrase a real workout, putting it through every possible meaning and twist. I'm thinking of "Things" above all others: I think every dictionary definition of that word and then some is in there. "Seein Her" is another one. I really like when he just digs in and makes a whole song out of all the different meanings he can squeeze out of one or two words.

This isn't in the same category, but as soon as I read this post I thought "Everybody gotta go Otto Otto,"
That damn phrase can stick in your head for days.

"You call that gone" off stereo/mono
what's taking so loo ooo nn nnn ggg ggg. you call that gone
rinse. repeat.
NOTE: I have a real crush on the song now. been singing for three or four days constantly. If I saw PW on the street, I'd slap him ( not really. I 'm pretty sure he could beat me up)

Again, may be slightly left of the topic but I think 'The Last' deserves a mention. The last love. The last drink. The last song. My personal favourite conclusion to any PW album.
