New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
|
|
Still round the corner there may wait |
|
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
Can I have some of what ya'll are smoking?
I gots some worrisome
Oh I gots some worrisome
I got some worrisome
Buzzard's-a-two-face bluuuuuues
< /blues riff >
I don't know that song at all, thankfully...
We're high on life!
(L'chai-im!)
Was it something we said? We haven't had company all month...
I feel pretty!
Oh so pretty!
I feel pretty and witty and briiiiight!
And I pity...
anybodywholooksatmefunnyorstepsonmytoesorgenerallyannoysmebecauseIcouldsnapatanyminuteanditaintgonnabepretty!
Sorry, you lose points for having Marni Nixon sing that one for you...
My mama done told me,
When I was in pig tails,
My mama done told me,
So! Mmmmm The man's gonna sweet talk
Give you the big eye;
But when the sweet talkin's done,
A man is a two face
A worrisome thing
Who'll leave you singin',
The blues in the night
Now you know that rain is fallin'
Hear that train calling
Whoo-ee (my mama done told me)
Yeah Yeah ah (oooo that lonesome whistle
calling cross the trestle),
Whoo-ee (my mama done told me)
A whoo-ee-duh-whoo-ee, clickety clacks
Echoin back the blues in the night
The evening breeze will start the trees to cryin'
And the Moonlight hides his light
When you get the blues in the night
Whoa
Take my word, the mockin bird will
Sing his saddest, saddest kinda song
He knows things are wrong and he's right
From Natchez to Mobile,
From Memphis to St. Joe,
Wherever the four winds blow,
Yeah I've been to the big towns,
An I heard me some big talk to,
Mmm But when the big talkin's done,
A man is a two face,
A worrisome thing
Only adapt it to Bugs Bunny singing about Beaky Buzzard
I feel gritty, oh so gritty. I feel gritty and grimey and gross! And I pity, anyone who has to stand too close!
That's quite a line.
It's g'nad's theme song!
Don't start or we'll have 'mean theme song' day in the Hole.
'Course they have a version for Frank Sinatra that goes "A woman's a twoface." And he's in knee-pants, not pigtails.
I also like the one that goes
"Why don't you do right, like some other men do. Get out of here and get me some money too."
That's the truth about men
That's the truth about us
We like to hunt and golf
And drive around lost
And scratch and spit
And a whole lotta other disgusting stuff
And no matter what line we give you
When we come crawlin' in
We ain't wrong, we ain't sorry
And it's probably gonna happen again
I've got some Madeline Peyroux playing right now.
