I'm listening to 80s music right now. Just finished Toto's "Africa" ...

"I know that I must do what's right, just as sure as Kilimanjaro rises like a leopress above the Serengeti."

I'm all for simile, but that one seems just a bit long and forced for a pop song, don't you agree?

Of course, when I was a kid, I thought the lyric was, "just as sure as kill-a my gonzo rises like a leper above the seven dead geese." I'm not sure which I like better.
