No Picture CHUNK ZIZZLE Rhythm Player	#1 by CHUNK ZIZZLE at Mar 10, 1989 at 6:35 PM EST
	Oh the rain exploded with a mighty crash As we sailed into the sun And the first one said to the second one there I hope you’re having fun Why don’t you leave those stinking paints alone? They stink the place out, poisoning the air! Just take them out! Where to? I don’t care where! I won’t have stinking paint here! {From their plates] That’s right! Stinking paint breeds fever, growled his mates And a bell was ringing in the village square For the rabbits on the run Until the beauty took him by the throat And stood there silent, leaning on the boat As it grew dark, she caught the bloke with Till now, I’ve spared you! Damn you! Now, you hark! I expected pudding—not this rot! Still—come, we’ll have some fun with what we’ve got In the town they’re searching for us everywhere But we never will be found Treading on naked tiptoe stealthily To grope for treasure at the longboat skid [utter and complete cosmic nonsense for Paul, Linda and friends … I was never really in on the joke ...]

No Picture Patrick Wanna Be	#2 by Patrick Wade at Jan 29, 1991 at 3:39 AM EST
	This song is great. I saw Paul McCartney a few nights ago in Atlanta and he did this song and believe me it was awesome. Wings was amazing and is a shame they didn't do more albums.

No Picture Kyle Average	#3 by Kyle Landers at Oct 2, 1996 at 7:41 AM EST

No Picture drw Average	#4 by drw drw at Nov 26, 1996 at 7:05 AM EST
	No, but when being played you need to yell to hear each other. I spent many, ahhh, strange weekends listening to wings, great band, shame they didn't keep going.
