She, shining like a star, like a sun, like a moon
and all that other stuff you know
I wanted everything, she gave me everything
but everything is never enough
what I mean is, she, my kind of fluff.
Like a star or a sun or a moon
like the surface of a still lagoon
like a stainless steel spoon she's shining
reach out to turn her on
she fills the room and hijinks ensue
in dark nights of the soul
I don't mind saying that I think I've had one or two
tried to tell her, she already knew
like an incandescent wish
like a silverplate chaffing dish
like a Siamese fighting fish she's shining
like a blinding brilliant thing
like a turned on electric ring
like a novel by Stephen King she's shining
ooh ah, ooh ooh ooh ah
glowing in her jar
just like a little piece of star
ooh ooh ooh ooh ah
like a blue electric shock
like a radioactive rock
like the hands of a digital clock she's shining
like the Thames or the Rhine or the Nile
like a luminescent radio dial
like a brand new ceramic tile she's shining
ooh she's shining, ooh she's shining
in this endless night
she's my little misguided light
~Shining, Mr. T Experience, from Yesterday Rules

For some reason my favorite MTE song is "I'm Like Yeah, but She's All No." It seemed to encapsule the ethos of the band perfectly. A close second, of course, is always "Even Hitler Had a Girlfriend."
