      You’ve just inspired in me a new question to post.  See, you are useful for something!  (I’ll tell the judge that at family court the next time you file for another divorce from me.)

    I read this all with interest a couple of days ago and, until I read SavvyAnsley's comment under Element99's question,  I had no idea they were song lyrics to that song.

    The only thing I listen for in that song is the reference to Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho," and Joel even includes a little musical moment from the movie score in the song.  :)

    So, my answer is :

    Z.3) Other:  "Psycho"

    Thanks. :)

    I sometimes don't listen closely to lyrics. (Especially if the song has "Psycho" in it -- the rest of the song fades away until those sterling three seconds, ha.)

    I notice you have omitted Childéric I, King of the Franks. That's a real puzzle.
    He wasn't black or homosexual or anything like that*, or lacking in smarts. I therefore have to assume you discovered a more obscure impediment to his inclusion in your list.
