Hmm... Problem is, there's an extra letter in there that throws the
meter off.
You can't really fix it without either leaving a letter out of Steve's
initials, or cutting off one of the other words in the line. "I want my
SKB", "Want my SKZB" or "I want SKZB" might work--but the last one
changes the meaning in a way I'm not certain is entirely appropriate.
Strangely enough, the original tune is one I'm in the middle of
recording on my home studio setup right now, so if someone did come up
with alternate lyrics, I could probably even record a pretty decent
version of them. Or not.
