lyrics

Come and see:
Miss Sister Cora Lee

Head-mistress Mean

Which made a good career
Until one day the orphans found the gasoline

Now, let me introduce you
To marauding Aunt Matilda
If you think you recognize her
It's probably cuz she killed ya

And Uncle Owen
With his cabinet full of toys
He stole from all the corpses
Of those little orphan boys

Isabella
Offers you a seat

I wouldn't sit there

And if she offers you a ride
She's probably gunning for your hide
And for your meat

Now, anxious Anabella
Hated Dancing for the fellas
So one day she took a fancy
To constructing skin umbrellas

And greedy Gertrude sits beside her
Growing flowers from her eyes

She's become quite a garden these days

The Salted Man
by Juke Baritone

supported by 14 fans who also own “All Aboard!”

Il y a des gens qui sont naturellement impliqués dans les entourloupes : Juke Baritone est un maître en la matière. Dans The Salted Man — le titre sur la pochette est DÉJÀ une embrouille —, ce pilier (de bar) du rockabilly est un M. Je-sais-tout qui a toujours une anecdote à raconter et il le fait si bien qu'on boit ses élucubrations sans queue ni tête comme de l'hydromel. Mais les embrouilles, il les fait lui aussi, faisant fusionner les genres dans un carnaval euphorique, fou et délicieux ! Jordan Vauvert
