The least we can do is make the world a better place
Not just for the few, but for the human race
To end wars and quarrels, make John Lennon's dream come true
To build a new set of morals, it's the least we can do.

Show some love and compassion, when people are feeling low
Make it not just a fashion that may come and go
Bring an end to oppression, 'cos it imprisons the truth
And be free with expression, it's the least we can do.

So follow his rainbow deep into the evening sun
And pray that its colours will together blend as one
Seek and we may find the dream he loved to pursue
A peace for all humankind, it's the least we can do.

I *never* feel lonely - comes from having a well-centered sense of self, and clear knowledge of my own values. I suspect Noodles is not subject to loneliness either.
It has happened, but not when I am alone.

That is one meaning.

An other is (see Urban Dictionary):

a form of fart caused by a vacuum created in the vagina during sexual intercourse

or

past tense of the world renowned queef, or a loud resonating sound formed by the expelling of trapped air from the vaginal orefice

The correct word is [b]inexplicable.

What is genuinely inexplicable is the reason why you expect anyone to take you seriously.

Some people fail to realize that Eco's real joke isn't about the word itself but about pseudo intellectuals who would use the word.

😉 Actually I like Christy Moore, but that particular song is quite awful. I especially dislike the idea of blending together all the colours of the rainbow - where would the beauty be?
