C'est la Vie by Jennifer Babcock for August 05, 2010

Tongue tied by the finality of it all…

I hear only the death-rattles of young love….

Maybe this time, I’ll be lucky Maybe this time, he’ll stay Maybe this time For the first time Love won’t hurry away

mona, honey

if you don’t hear the answer you want the first time, do not ask again.

Well Mona—-Hey look, the Northern lights!

…Ah, but in Pa-ree they die for love…

And people still don’t understand why she talks to bunnies.

GEE1A: Thanks for the song. Gotta love those oldies

(reahpft??)

ah well, if we’re in that sort of mood

Quicksilver Messenger Service. ” Mona” Lyrics

Bo Diddley) Hey, Mona, hey hey hey hey, Mona, I’m gonna tell you what I’m gonna do, I’m gonna build my house next door to you, Can I make love to you once in a while? Maybe we could do a little kissing and tellin’ lies. When I come out on the front, girl, You’ll listen to my heart goin’ bumpity bump. I need you baby and it ain’t no lie, When I’m through lovin’ I’ll surely die

Only they do it to the tune of “Who do you love?”. which is darker:-

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie A brand new house on the road side, And it’s a-made out of rattlesnake hide Got a band new chimney put on top, And it’s a-made out of human skull Come on take a little walk with me baby, And tell me who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love?

Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, Take it easy baby don’t you give me no lip Who do you love? Who do you love?

I’ve got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind, I’m just twenty-two and I don’t mind dying Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love?

Now Arlene took a-me by my hand, She said “Lonesome George you don’t understand, Who do you love?” The night were dark and the sky were blue, Down the alleyway a house wagon flew Hit a bump and somebody screamed, You should’ve heard what I’d seen Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love?

Yeah, I’ve got a tombstone hand in a graveyard mine, Just twenty-two baby I don’t mind dying Snake skin shoes baby put them on your feet, Got the goodtime music and the Bo Diddley beat Who do you love? Who do you love?

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie A brand new house on the road side, And it’s made out of rattlesnake hide Got a band new chimney put on top, And it’s made out of human skull Come on take a little walk with me child, Tell me who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love?

Do you love me? Will you love me forever? Do you need me? Will you never leave me? Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? I gotta know right now, Before we go any further, do you love me? Will you love me forever?

Lemme sleep on it, Baby, baby, lemme sleep on it. Lemme sleep on it, I’ll give you an answer in the mo-o-o-r-ning.

OOOOOOH yeah I luv ya baby
