Andy's Hair

Post by lyle_from_minneapolis »

This still wants drums, and I've got the jones to keep adding more more more...but I don't see any recording happening until after the holidays, so what the heck. Here's Andy, take one:

Andy's Hair

Andy was a man who had long brown hair
It grew down to here and down to there
One day when all his friends were gathered round and talkin' jive talk
They decided they could use it as a sidewalk

So come all ye lovers, come and take a stroll
Down Andy's long brown sidewalk
It's as fragrant as a vagrant
And it doubles as a pavement
It's Andy's long brown sidewalk

People came from miles around in socks and in sundresses
To walk upon his locks and on his tresses
That day when Frank Sinatra stepped upon it to sing "My Way"
It grew so long it turned into a highway

So come all ye truckers, come and drive your rigs
Down Andy's long brown highway
It's got Burger Kings and Exxons
Even places to have sex on
It's Andy's long brown highway

Then one dark night
That was so grim and full of fright
That it made Bill and Cathy nervous, it made Sean tense
A strange semi painted red
Became entangled in a dread
Where it jackknifed and emptied out its contents

Andy's hair it started growing like a rocket to the moon
But it didn't want to stop so soon
It flew on beyond the sun and when it grew past Betelgeuse
The space administration found another use

So come all ye Earthlings, come and fly away
On Andy's transgalactic spaceway
It's for real, it ain't no fluke
You might even meet Jean Luc
On Andy's long brown plastic spastic transgalactic spaceway

That's great! When does the CD come out? I wish I had more techinical expertise so I could offer more specific congratulations. Any way, it made me smile, and brought a few chuckles along the way.

Thanks Jim!

CD? I don't do CDs. I just write songs and post 'em, and when I'm lucky I occasionally get something signed to a publisher. I'm not interested in being the performer. On the other hand, I wouldn't mind getting this recording nailed down and see if Dr. Demento digs it. :D

But the smiles and chuckles are all I was after...glad it worked on you.

Cheers!
