Normally I pick a song from my "favourites" list, which I can usually manage, but not always. Especially we _just_ did "purple" so I feel constrained from going back to "Purple Rain" for another track or something.

On a whim, I am instead grabbing this one, a song I remember listening to a few times as a kid on one of my mother's old 45s. I hadn't heard it in years but ran across it a few months ago and got a new copy. I had never known that it's actually a novelty song built around a long sequence of frustrated rhymes.
