This song really reflects the weird cacophonous effect I always get on new year’s eve. Look backwards too long and all you see is crapola.  So this song is a litany and a garbage-bag, my hymn to the passing year. Scroll down for lyrics.

Play safely tonight, and I will see you on the other side. Lots of love from Calendar Girl.


Shangalang
You’re a fantasy
Monkey in a birdcage
You wrote all over every tear-soaked page

Ache & Shake
Ordinary guy
Dog day on a trampoline
Promise in the turn-ups of your jeans

Oh, there are whistles and bells
Miracles
In a town called kill, and who’s your friend
there?
Oh, there are sinking ships
Kisses on lips
In a town called kill

Salty rooms
Tiger in your dreams
Fairy tales at bedtime
A silver trick that you were slighted by

Underground
Put a spider there
Got that goodbye look you gave
Take back all the tidy beds you made

Oh, there are whistles and bells
Miracles
In a town called kill, and who’s your friend there?
Oh, there are sinking ships
Labyrinths
In a town called kill

There are souvenirs
Of your forgotten years
There’s a town called kill, and who’s your friend there?
Things you do so well
A spinning top, inside a ringing bell

Mirrorball
An Aladdin’s cave
Words you said were good enough
House filled up with all this junky stuff

Icicles
Get their just deserves
Listen to the organ play
Take back every tidy bed you made

Oh, there are whistles and bells
Miracles
In a town called kill, and who’s your friend there?
Oh, there are sinking ships
Kisses on lips
In a town called kill
A town called kill

Gravatar The calendar idea is fab. The songs are so pretty - as someone already said, like a music box. And your voice is beautiful, as always. xx

Gravatar well... here in london there is a very nice road called charing cross road. and one day december i was walking past a big old city tree, you know those ones that have gnarly roots that have cracked the pavement up. and next to this tree was a big mudball. how funny i thought and walked on by. next few times, same thing. THEN i saw that someone had given the mudball a smiley face. this chimed perfectly with the crapola feeling i was getting. smiley mudballs all round! best from cg. xx 2/9/2007 2:06 PM | calendargirl

Gravatar Hi Calendar Girl, glad you like my remix, lips sure do kill but i'm not sure what a salty room is heheh

and coincidentally (or not)i used to work on charing cross road a long time ago - charing cross road, trafalgar square, shaftsbury ave and chinatown, i was a street sweeper while looking for the gold paved streets of london, i never found them tho 3/1/2007 12:55 AM | Rinkydink

Gravatar rinkay dinkay! a 'salty room' is... well, i was thinking a lot about purification rites. like how sumo wrestlers throw salt into the ring before they fight and stuff. i was also thinking about empty houses and sad places. so i originaly had 'silent rooms'. but 'salty rooms' was much easier to sing nicely. as for the streets of london, definitely not paved with gold. or salt! thanks again for the mix. best from cgirl xx 3/2/2007 11:02 PM | calendargirl
