A Maryn Cadell moment...

[msfledermaus]

I try not to do the quoting thing too much unless it's just too good a joke to pass up. Usually.:)
But last night walking in the cold night air to meet Brian I kept running into people cruising the neighborhood where I live. (Not agressively, so it's usually okay, but it makes you very careful at night. It reminded me of a chant Meryn Cadell put on a Cd once. (Don't remember which; the one before "Bombazine")
*With the sound of heels walking down asphalt*

Click clack
through the street and steaming sewers.
Take the chance the only chance
you chicks would take and cakewalk home
on icy brakes and clicks the make
and walk through your cold neighborhood
but don't get raped, knock on wood....

*the clicks fade into the background*

Martina hobbled home,
on a dark street at 3:00 at night.
Nobody was around.
"that's the worst time" part of her said.
But the rest said
vuh-tup
vuh-tup
vuh-tup
vuh-tup
to her swinging legs.
Click-clack
through the steam of distant sewers.
Take the chance the only chance
you chicks would take and cakewalk home
on icy brakes and clicks they make
and walk through your cold neighborhood
but don't get raped,
knock on wood.

*the clicking of heels gets louder, then passes you by and away...*
