I put 'song lyrics meaning' into Google and got 277,000,000 hits. I was going to list them all here, but then my computer asked me:
"Just what do you think you are doing ? … Bob?" and refused to open the keyboard port. Then it started to sing ♫ 'Daisy' ♪ and I took the hint.

I thought there was a thread by this name already, but can't find it on search....
Edit - There is one - moved here now - always an issue to find short/common words.
Does anyone know.....
In 1967, if I wanted to etch a pattern onto something that was similar to stainless steel (but not stainless steel, a similar 'recipe' to stainless steel, but homemade by a blacksmith), what would I use? Its not acid, (Google suggestion) as the etching is rough to the touch.... Any ideas anyone?

It's very delicate engraving, flowers etc, tiny too, I'll get a picture tomorrow.

I have a Makonus 'engraver', if you're in a position to draw it freehand.
It doesn't really engrave, it spark-erodes the surface, just changing the texture and is almost like writing with an ink pen.
I may have some examples of what it does here - I'll see if I can find any tomorrow.
it may be a while before I am 'local' again, though.

Brilliant, this may be the thing.... Its intricate flowers, and I think some copperplate engraving, photos tomorrowI have a Makonus 'engraver', if you're in a position to draw it freehand.

It does this sort of thing, but it takes practice to be this neat.
It's usually used to identify tools, etc., without disturbing the surface much.
There are people who will do photo-etching -
and don't want to make a mess of it ( tried googling without success).
