    Well these are the lyrics:
    And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
    Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
    God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
    Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

    We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
    We'd like to help you learn to help yourself
    Look around you, all you see are sympathetic eyes
    Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home

    And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
    Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
    God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
    Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

    Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes
    Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes
    It's a little secret, just the Robinsons' affair
    Most of all, you've got to hide it from the kids

    Coo, coo, ca-choo, Mrs Robinson
    Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
    God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
    Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

    Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
    Going to the candidates debate
    Laugh about it, shout about it
    When you've got to choose
    Ev'ry way you look at it, you lose

    Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio
    A nation turns its lonely eyes to you (Woo, woo, woo)
    What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson
    Joltin' Joe has left and gone away (Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)
    I figured you wouldn't download the song, so I thought I'd let you know what I was on about.

    It was a lousy song the FIRST time around. The movie was
    no damn good either.

    Well I think the later versions are kinda catchy. It's a song Kovan.

    I could post other songs that you'd hate more, if that's any consolation

    I dunno if it has any significance, it's just a song someone wrote. I don't think it's really about religion.

    It was by Simon and Garfunkel and was the theme song for
    the movie The Graduate with Dustin Hoffman.

    The only bad song S and G ever did.

    Thanks HarryW.
    At 888 bytes/sec I don't think I am going to.

    It's an interesting song. Not very "Christian" or theologicly correct though.

    P.S. Is it "Harry" or "HarryW?"

    Well to be honest I don't really listen to the lyrics that much, I just kind of like the tune.

    As to my name - this is something I was just thinking of bringing up. Which do you think I was christened? harry or HarryW?

    Actually that's a trick question, I wasn't christened either of them, but people call me Harry... so call me that

    What's with the 1870?

    Harry it is. I asked because some people like to be refered to by their full login.

    <riddle>
    It has something to do with the name. It was the year I was born and/or died.
    </riddle>

    Well met.
