It's a ships biscuit...just like Captain Cook used to eat.

One of those biscuits went for $9,000 (US) at auction a while ago.

I know your song lyric, by the way......but will sit this dance out.

ok heres mine:

You need a little room for your big head
Don't you, don't you
You need a little space for a thousand beds
Won't you, won't you
Lips that promise - fear the worst
Tongue so sharp - the bubble burst
Just into unjust


Beautiful South - A little Time

All alone in my gloom
You voice echoes through the room

Lyrics to R. Dean Taylor's "There's a ghost in my house".

Try this:-

The sun is the same, in a relative way, but your older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death...

PINK FLOYD-TIME

Or in French it goes something like this


Coutil loin les moments qui composent un jour mat
Vous gaspillez et gaspillez les heures d'une manière spontanée
Coups de pied autour sur un morceau de la terre dans votre ville natale
Attente de quelqu'un ou de quelque chose vous montrer la manière
Fatigué de se situer au soleil restant à la maison pour observer la pluie
Vous êtes jeune et la vie est longtemps et il y a l'heure de tuer aujourd'hui
Et alors l'un jour vous trouvez dix ans pour avoir derrière vous
Personne ne vous ont indiqué que quand courir, vous avez manqué le pistolet démarrant
Et vous courez et vous courez à vous rattrapez par rapport au soleil, mais il descend
Et emballant autour pour monter derrière vous encore
Le soleil est le même de la manière relative, mais vous êtes plus âgé
Et plus court du souffle et d'un jour plus près de la mort
Chaque année devient plus courte, ne semblent jamais trouver le temps
Les plans dont venez au rien ou à la moitié d'une page scribbled des lignes
Accrocher dessus dans le desparation tranquille de la manière anglaise
Le temps est allé la chanson plus de, pensée que je quelque chose plus dire
