Every Sunday Morning

Another song from my one-man show about Tiny Tim, Tulip.

LYRICS: Every Sunday morning Parson Poole He walks to school he walks to school He sits before class on at his desk and stool To teach the golden rule the golden rule Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning Every Sunday morning Gillian Lark She strolls the park she strolls the park All the men there offer a cheery remark But she pines for coachman mark Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning You read the papers and make yourself tea Which you drink alone every day at three And you toss out letters and disconnect the phone And compose your epitaph: She lived alone Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning Every Sunday morning Marie Clair She does her hair she does her hair She affixes to her collar a bejeweled pear And she pays a call on her Pierre Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning You eat alone inside your tiny little room And primp and preen with makeup and perfume You never lift the blind or go outside And compose your epitaph: Alone she died Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning Every Sunday morning Danny Blue He calls on you he call on you He pounds at your day, he always do Which you ignore, as he expects of you Oh every Sunday morning Oh every Sunday morning

I just discovered this and it all makes sense - well, more sense - now. I mean, I thought Tiny Tim was the figment of Astro Zombie's high-pitched imagination but no, turns out the dude is real. I like what you're doing here Astro, really like it.

I really like these. Would it be tin-eared/offensive to say that they remind me of The Kinks?

Not at all. Because Tiny Tim alternated between old timey songs and the popular music of the Sixties, I am trying to write music that contains a little of both, and the Kinks are certainly an influence on that, since Ray Davis often seemed like he was trying to do the same thing.
