You're walking down the street in the middle of the day
The sun is shinning brightly everything is quite ok
But then you hear this song, it makes you stop and yell out, "hey!"
You might think that it is

But this is not a crass song!

You might think that it is but I'm telling you it ain't!
Although I will admit it sounds like something they might write
It's a happy little ditty makes you stop and move you're feet
You might think that this is

But this is not a crass song!

Masterpieces don't usually get written in a minute
But this one took just seconds or even less time to pen it
But don't be too amazed, 'cause it's just got one verse and chantin'
Your might think that this is

Ah right it's not a crass song is it?

The guitar riff is real savage and it ain't on all that on time
The vocals are so cockney that they may just blow your mind
And it's got made up words like "icklee", "zicklee", "vin", and "plime"
You might think that this is

No! no! this is not a crass song!

We like to play it in the morning like to play it in the night
Do yourself a favor matey, sing it instead of starting fights
After only just one verse I'm telling you you'll feel all right
You might think that this is

But this is not a crass song!

Play it when you're walking, walking down the street
Play it when you're riding on your bike or on your feet
Doesn't really matter 'cause it's really really neat
You might think that this is

Ah

Sing it to your mommy, sing it to your dad
Sing it to your new girl friend or the one you just had
Hello, hello I'm from England right? I love the Teletubbies!!!!
Teletubbies is my favorite show hello? Anybody there right? Hello?

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”
