Song Information:
many things came in to play on this one, a two-chorder about the nature of appearances. i'm happy with the shel silverstein and dumas references and the subtler one toward calvin & hobbes. really, it's my cat that's the banana, but that was harder to rhyme. the first song recorded with the digi 001, if that's of interest to you....
Song Lyrics:
i took my head to my favorite place
swam in the dirt and got mud on my face
felt like a reptile
looked like an ostrich
but wherever i go
no one notices me
i gave a rose to my librarian
she says that i remind her of d'artagnan
she hides like a hermit
reads too much calvino
but whenever she's near
i'm a tigery guy
[i have a banana at home
that thinks it's a cat
and whenever it goes
it stays where it's at
sometimes i think this is
all really real
but usually i'm slipping
on my cat's banana peel]
i fell right out of a tree that could talk
pulled at the roots to see if it could walk
quick disappointment
turned to security
when the tree said to me
"i won't go anywhere"
it's a giving tree....
