Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down
and won.
And it was twelve o'clock before I realized I was having
no fun.

Dude..you like John Prine? Or just the lyric?
My favorite lyrics are from a Michael Franks tune:
Popsicle Toes
When God gave out rhythm
Sure was good to you
You can add, subtract, multiply and divide by two
I know today's your birthday and I did not buy no rose
But I wrote this song and instead I call it, Popsicle toes
Popsicle toes
Popsicle toes are always froze
Popsicle toes
You're so brave to expose all those Popsicle toes
You must have been Mr. Olympian
With all that amplitude
How come you always load your Pentax when I am in the nude
We are to have a birthday party and you can wear your birthday cloths
Then we can hit the floor and go explore those Popsicle toes
You've got the nicest north of America
This sailor ever saw
I like to feel your warm Brazil and touch your Panama
But Tierra del Fuegos are nearly always froze
We've got to seesaw until we un-thaw those Popsicle toes
@ Dusty: yeah, he's not quite in my top ten, but then I have a really wide range of musical taste. I love some of his rhymes. I got a tape of "Prime Prine" while I was still in high school, and played the hell out of it.
@ Poobah: Good call. Once upon a time (high school again), I had all the the Michael Franks albums available at the time. My personal favorite was "Sleeping Gypsy".
That's a great line. Prine's got a lot of terrific witticisms. My favorite album of his is German Afternoons.
Good lord..popsicle toes really took me back..and made me feel very old.
