) things to keep your brain occupied with while trying to settle them down to sleep again...

Any other songs with mention of caudates in them? I only got three...

1) Frank Zappa - Camarillo Brillo

'She ruled the toads
Of the short forest
And every newt in idaho
And every cricket who had chorused
By the bush in buffalo'

2) Wu Tang Clan - Snakes

'...comin thru the trees, like a salamander, bitin, Like a piranha, but I'm bitin you back, like a black pantha'

3) Jethro Tull - Salamander

'Salamander ---
born in the sun-kissed flame.
Who was it lit your candle ---
branded you with your name?
I see you walking by my window
in your Kensington haze.
Salamander, burn for me
and I'll burn for you.'

...any others????

Edge of the yard,
I found you, you know,
all brown and hard......."

Einstuerzende Neubauten (Germanny) have an excellent love song on Salamandrina..although if you listen to the lyrics they probably have meant Salamandra salamandra, but that's just a minor detail.

Salamander
by Maanam

Album :


Who am I
Created day by day
I'm your fantasy
Who am I
With cool, soft claws
A golden mystery

See and feel
How I come alive
In the pouring rain

I'm a Salamander

You know
You can always catch me
But only for a while
You know
I'll always run free
Unless . . . you kill me

See and feel
How I come alive
In the pouring rain

I'm a Salamander

Who am I
I love water
Fire caresses me
You know
I love fire
Fire and the rain

See and feel
How I come alive
In the pouring rain

I'm a Salamander

Caudate = our vernacular for tailed amphibian.

Literally it means "tailed thing".
