![]() June in Siberia (2011) [ larger cover art ] |
I open up my kitchen door
walk out to my small back yard
sit down in my small lawn chair
let the morning blanket my eyes
and it all starts to feel
Tailored to Fit
The clouds are having pillow fights
and there's wrinkles in the skin of the trees
as my mind is juggling jack knives
as it tries to settle on punch lines
that will all make this feel
Tailored to Fit
I hear some dreams are in the hospital ward
and the doctors found a cure for them all
they say their shoes are just a bit too large
but the patients say they're just too small
Now I'm sitting in my small back yard
and the sun has won the pillow fight
and it's throwing all the shadows around
and I'm smiling at the holes in my jeans
and it all starts to fell

(bugger Unclehud is a faster typer than me ) lol I put forward for consideration the idea that on RP, 'first' only counts if you actually include a comment. In that case, you would be first. Also, including the word 'first' in your comment would disqualify you from 'first' status, unless it's necessary in commenting on the song. Thoughts? |

| coffeeadikt (Albany, NY) | Posted: Apr 26, 2012 - 08:24 I thought it was a Eurhythmics cover |
| KermitDfrog (Los Angeles, CA) | Posted: Mar 25, 2012 - 15:04 Like! I thought it was Rufus Wainright at first. |
| NoEnzLefttoSplit | Posted: Jan 19, 2012 - 19:40 LIKE it! |
| wossName (Earth) | Posted: Dec 21, 2011 - 11:52 I thought Bill was playing a Lady Gaga cover song at the first few notes. Something's wrong with me... |
