My Faux Policy Wonks,
Please dig the new song that I added to the “Mixed Up Files” album series today—you can listen for free in the player below:
It’s kind of a mash up or a medley or what have you.
For some reason, the intro makes me think of “Little House on the Prairie.” Go figure.
In the above video, I mention that WFMU is doing their fund drive right now, but I forget to mention that you should donate. You should! It’s such a great radio station I could almost cry some faux tears.
I remain your humble servant,
OX&C,
Faux Jean
Here are the lyrics for today’s song addition to Volume 11 of FTMUFOMMTS:
C'mon now!
This was just some dream I had,
Before I ever met you,
Means nothing now...
We had a fight
It's true
And it was over before I knew it
It was June
I don't remember the weather
do you?
No you, you just did what you had to do
When you said "I'm going to be a few,"
I pretty much gave up on you
Yeah you, you just did what you had to do
When you said "I need to talk to you,"
Right then and there I knew
We had a fight
It's true
And it was four o'clock in the morning
The rain was pouring
I heard you snoring
Yeah you
No you, you just did what you had to do
When you said "I need to talk to you,"
Right then and there I knew
Oh you
You just do what you have to do
And you do and you always will
So I'm going over that hill
And over the hill
Why is you like you is?
Why is you like you is?
Why is you like you is?
Why is you like you is?
Why is you like you is?
Why is you like you is?
Maybe it's the shape of your cranium
Maybe it's the planets
The position of the sun on the day you were born
Or the movement of the moon on the day you were conceived . . .Here are the lyrics:
