Forgive me if this isn't the correct newsgroup for this posting, or if
somewhere there is a net.music.rock.lyrics.bizzare that I haven't seen.
I'm trying to get a copy of the lyrics to several songs by The Pretenders.
Chrissie Hynde is notorious for mumbling and slurring words in a fashion that
puts the Kingsmen to shame, and their first album has no lyric sheet.

I'm particularly interested in getting the words to "The Wait" (highest
priority), and also "Telephone call" and "Mystery Achievement".

If you know where I could locate these lyrics, or if you have any good guesses
as to what they're singing, or, if you're just bored and want to write nasty
replies, please send me mail.

Thanks,
