Frodo recently introduced me to the artist Feist. Her album Let It Die has quickly become a favorite... especially for road trips or as a gloomy day pick-me-up. I find myself drawn to the song Mushaboom, in particular. It has a wonderful, dreamy quality to it that I find easy to get lost in. I just may adopt this as my new theme song... it fits me so well. To listen, click the link below. The song's lyrics follow.
Helping the kids out of their coats But wait the babies haven't been born oh oh oh Unpacking the bags and settin' up And planting lilacs and buttercups oh oh oh But in the meantime I've got it hard Second floor living without a yard It may be years until the day My dreams will match up with my pay Old dirt road (mushaboom, mushaboom) Knee deep snow (mushaboom, mushaboom) Watchin' the fire as we grow... old (mushaboom, mushaboom) I got a man to stick it out And make a home from a rented house oh oh oh And we'll collect the moments one by one I guess that's how the future's done oh oh oh How many acres how much light Tucked in the woods and out of sight Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap On a little road barely on the map Old dirt road (mushaboom, mushaboom) Knee deep snow (mushaboom, mushaboom) Watchin' the fire as we grow... old(mushaboom, mushaboom) Old dirt road Ramblin' rose (mushaboom, mushaboom) Watchin' the fire as we grow (mushaboom, mushaboom) Well I'm sold ... Oh oh oh oh oh oh ... Oh oh oh oh oh oh ...
