talk about a month of Sundays

[fflo]

This morning in my head was "I Am The Walrus." Somewhere around noon it switched into the Rutles' "Piggy in the Middle," which I've had on the brain ever since.

Bible-punching heavyweight,
Evangelistic boxing kangaroo;
Orangutan and anaconda,
Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse,
And even Pluto too

Hey diddle diddle---
The cat and the fiddle---
Piggy in the middle.
doo-a-poo-poo

Oooh, "Yes It Is"---good one. Love the harmonies. Haven't heard it in forever. I love "I'm Down," too, but your influence is probably felt there.

Let me pipe up for:

Hey Bulldog
I'm So Tired (not cuz I'm tired this a.m.---cuz I love the part when he kicks in with the "You'd say I'm putting you on/But it's no joke, it's doing me harm" and builds to the give-you-everything-I've-got part---is that the bridge? haveta think about the structure a little)
Boys
Chains
Eight Days a Week
Dr. Robert
I Dig a Pony

All those songs are great, too!

If we're going to throw in covers, I'd add:

You Really Got a Hold on Me
Roll Over Beethoven
Kansas City
and the cream of the crop:

Money
Twist and Shout

I had to resist mentioning You Really Got a Hold.... Love "Kansas City" too.

As far as "Money," you know I have a fondness for the Flying Lizards' version.

Yeah, I do. I thought you did, too. Beatles' version rules, though.
