    Just like me, they long to be close to you…. Actually, they long to make their marks on your freshly washed baby.

    doctortoon says: OK, who else had to sing it to make check the cadence worked?

    LOL - only in my head… and it’s not - he needs to drop “the” in the 3rd line or contract suddenly to 2 syllables (sudd’nly).

    …Unlike me, they like to see, well dropped poo….

    Hal David gets no respect…. (insert story about Mrs. Kern, Mrs. Hammerstein and “Ol’ Man River”)

    No cadence at all. The rhythm reminds me of Steve Martin in the JERK. Let me help here… “Why do birds suddenly appear, everytime my car is near. Just like you, they long to poo, close to you….” Had he done it this way, it would have been funny.

    Delightfully nuanced. I read it as he’s only been inspired … he hasn’t perfected it yet.

    Alas, perhaps I think too much. I have been guilty before.
