LOL. I LOVE Ian Dury's lyrics. I'm massively into music and listen all the time but I can honestly say that 99% of the time I don't actually listen to or remember what's being sung. I love listening to people singling but to me it's more about how they're singing not what they're singing. I find it bemusing when I go to a gig and people around me can sing all the lyrics to all the songs through an entire gig whereas I can only just about manage a chorus here or there. I may tunes inside out and know exactly what the drummer/bass player/guitarist/keyboard player/vocalist is going to do next. I just don't know the words. But I find Ian Dury's lyrics endlessly amusing and so they stick. I bought a lot of brandy When I was courting Sandy Took eight to make her randy And all I had was shandy Another thing with Sandy What often came in handy Was passing her a 'Mandy' She didn't half go bandy | |

Tom Waits - Hope I don't fall in love with you Well the night does funny things inside a man These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand, Well I turn around to look at you, You light a cigarette, I wish I had the guts to bum one, But we've never met, And I hope that I don't fall in love with you. I can see that you are lonesome just like me, And it being late, you'd like some some company, Well I turn around to look at you, And you look back at me, The guy you're with has up and split, The chair next to you's free, And I hope that you don't fall in love with me. Now it's closing time, the music's fading out Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout. Well I turn around to look at you, You're nowhere to be found, I search the place for your lost face, Guess I'll have another round And I think that I just fell in love with you. | | | |
