Blow In Your Nose Lyrics

Oh operator, give me long distance.
It's a person-to-, yeah, yeah, go ahead, yeah, go ahead, go, alright, alright, just...
"Um,
Hello?
Hello,
um...
we got a, we, we put an album together and we're releasing it next week.
It's called Blowin' Your Nose.
It's got a psychedelic jacket,
and it's called Blowin' Your Nose.
It's a gorgeous album cover; you should see it.
It's groovy."
"You mean you called me up to tell me that...that, yeah...
Groovy."...

Cover art for Blow In Your Nose lyrics by Van Morrison

The website for WFMU put the whole Van Morrison "contractual obligations session" up a while ago, and it's a really interestingly bizarre listen. See, he really wanted out of his contract with Bang Records, but technically owed them the publishing rights to 31 more songs, so he went to a studio by himself and recorded 31 different improvised "songs" on acoustic guitar. So naturally a lot of it is complete nonsense, but a definite recurring thread is venom towards the record label. This one's about his dissatifsaction with his debut album; Bang put out an album of songs originally intended as potential single sides without consulting him, put a psychadelic cover on it, and called it "Blowin' Your Mind!", and he was none too happy about this.
