Crosby sings pretty swell
Fred Astaire dances well
I'm that combination
That's my reputation

I'll capture your heart singing
And then I'll take you down the road with my dancing

Just wait till I start singing
And wait until you get a load of my dancing

I can't go wrong, a tender song and you'll discover my charms
And then some taps and you'll collapse and fall right into my arms

I'll capture your heart singing
And then we'll start a romance when I go into my dance

Here she comes, down the street
My, oh my, ain't she sweet?
Why, here comes my hot toddy
Over my dead body

I'll capture her heart singing
Just wait until she gets a load of my dancing

Just wait till I start singing
I'll take her strolling down the road with my dancing

I can't go wrong, a tender song and she'll discover my charms

Some fancy taps and she'll collapse and fall right into my arms

I'll capture her heart singing
Oh no, you haven't a chance when I go into my dance

I'll take you through life singing
I'll make you my wife dancing

If you could dance instead of sing
I'd learn to love you somehow
If you could sing instead of dance
I'd take you home with me now

The way you sing don't mean a thing
You'd better stick to your dance
And as for you, your dance won't do
You'll have to sing for romance

I'll capture her heart
I'll capture her heart
Singing!
Dancing!

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
