Here, I use the metaphor of an unconquerable, indefatigable fortress to describe The Current Mrs. Cregan's intestinal fortitude. By the way, the movie The Guns of Navarone isn't nearly as good as you might remember. Try Battleground instead.

lyrics

You're like a fortress carved way up high
In some Mediterranean mountainside
So tough even Anthony Quinn was denied
And I can't take you - you're Navarone

Roman nose and those guns are long range
Impregnable except that once in the rain
Your pulchritude of universal acclaim
And I can't take you - you're Navarone

Evening lights ring around you when I stumble home
While I was out I found two reasons to love you more

I love the way that you handled the calls
When I was laid up in Glendale hospital
Thinking of you kept me from climbing the walls
And I can't take you - you're Navarone

Evening lights ring around you when I stumble home
While I was out I found three reasons to love you more

You're so high I can't even see
My most advantageous opportunity
I can't believe you ever pedaled by me
And I can't take you - you're Navarone

Like most songs on the album this song shifts between two distinct modes that work great separately, but when they combine, they become Voltron and are unstoppable! bradykoch
