Can you please confirm the original, for my own sake of sanity? This is what I always heard...

"The way to see, the way to eat
The way to put myself to sleep
The way to see, the way to eat
The way to put myself, my children to sleep"

That is CONCISELY why R.E.M. was my favorite band for so many years.

You are correct. I was mistaken when it comes to the chorus being in the hand written lyrics. Hearing the isolated vocals (as well as hundreds of early 80's live versions) have cemented "Calling on" for me over the years, but some hear something else.

and there's also the handwritten lyrics that also say "Calling on"...

For clarification... youtu.be/n5I7qXrjw_U

Not for nothing, but it's "Calling ON in transit"

You're seriously deluded if you think Trump won't use Elon's DOGE team to do what that did last time and make sure Trump wins every single swing state, even though it wasn't even remotely possible (without starlink and Musk). The only way MAGA goes away is if America is conquered. Period.

Love it! Great job on this!

Yes?

I hope I remember this post whenever I write my next instrumental and need to name it something...
