I have just written the blues song of the era. It has everything, from an honest down-to-basics earthy quality to the pathos of rejection, to despair, and even to redemption at the end where of course the predominantly minor key transposes up to a major reflecting the nature of true friendship. Nominations are invited for the most suitable world-famous singers who should be invited to bid for the performing rights.
THE DOGGY POOS ON MY SHOES BLUES
I got the doggy poos, doggy poos,
on my shoes blues;
If some doggy poos get on your shoes,
then there ensues
Dismay, disgust and consternation;
you take abuse;
An’ no one wants t’ know ya, so your
friends you will lose,
They wrinkle up their noses, and they
make big ‘to-do’s,
You ask them to come near you, and they
rudely refuse,
If you are in a place, then other
places they choose,
And if you walk right up to them, then
they take a cruise:
I think I’m simply gonna have to
be a recluse …
I got the doggy poos, doggy poos,
on my shoes blues!
It seems, though, when it comes to doggies,
there’s better news –
The doggies love my shoes encrusted
with doggy poos!
MORE ‘IN’ THINGS I HAVE INVENTED:
I like being in Transigent. When I’m there I never want to move. Being in Flexible has the same effect on me.
To be in Direct, you have to take the roundabout route.
When I am in Coherent, nobody seems to understand me.
I’ve never been in Labour, but I hear that it is a painfully pushy sort of place.
One always seems to choose to wrong moment to be in Opportune.

Hehe. What about Billie Holiday? When she’s done with your song she can move right onto Gloomy Sunday?

I wrote a blues song once, about a windjammer cruise off the coast of Maine ~ The Cramped Cabin Blues. “I got the cramped cabin blues, sailing on Penobscott Bay. . .”
