Yes, I was absent last week. But that was for a good reason: Ujang and Sjamsu were back -- and smashing. I didn't feel like spoiling their great postings with my ranting on music.
One week is enough, tho. Now I'm going to torture you again... No I'll go light and sweet.
It's Michael Franks. Popsicle Toes (and have the brilliant interpretation by Diana Krall). When The Cookie Jar Is Empty. Hourglass.
when the cookie jar is emptyp.s. and unrelated: If you're still using Internet Explorer, you should see that Ujang's and a.p.'s postings with footnotes are weird. Use Firefox, IE is lame.
baby gets so glum
when the cookie jar is empty
baby sucks her thumb
baby breaks her dishes
and she won't eat her peas
baby never misses
when she throws her spoon at me
leo is high as i'm leaving
love is the web that she is weaving
that's from pacific blue, isn't it? Damn, i've almost entirely forgotten that album. time to put it back on, i guess.
ReplyDeleteI'm using IE7.0. Ha ha! Just to be annoying really, it's beta and it's a buggy one.
Treespotter, it's actually from Burchfield Nines, the late 70s album. I don't recall if Franks has it too in Blue Pacific (that one is 90 something, right?). But I agree, you should find it again. Cause it has The Art of Love:
ReplyDeletehis ego would bend
learning the art of love
her heart soon would mend
learning the art of love
