J'ai des choses à faire...

jawnbc...mais je ne veux pas les faire. Meh.
For months now I've had a song in my head. It's been there, on and off, every single goddam muthafucking cocksucking tabarnak d'un jour. The song?
I Know Him So Well, definitive interpretation by Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson (the Whitney/Cissy Houston one is atrocious.
This is the best of two things to come out of the Benny Andersson (swoon! Schwing!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jawnbc's first bear crush), Bjorn Ulvaeus and Tim Rice's icky, icky musical Chess. The other good thing, of course, mais oui, was One Night in Bangkok by Murray Head. I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine.
I Know Him So Well is a duet between a world champion chess player's wife and mistress. One sings of him as being a free spirit, the other characterizes him as someone needing structure and a home life. Yet they each "know him so well>"
Here's a sample of the lyrics:
No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide
Looking back I could have played it differently
(Looking back I could have played things some other way)
Learned about the man before I fell
(I was just a little careless maybe)
But I was ever so much younger then
(Much younger then)
Now at least I know him well
Now at least I know I know him well
Wasn't it good, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness
He won't be mine
But in the end he needs a little bit more than me
More security
He needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well
querrelle, honey-baby, love of my life, homme de ma vie, this earworm is in no way a sublimal message about the state of our marriage. OK?

How long has this been goin' on ?
Date: 2005-05-09 02:35 am (UTC)Can't admit that it's part of the scene
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
And you said you were never intendin'
To break up our secret this way
But there ain't any use in pretendin'
It could happen to us any day
How long has this been goin' on ? 4X
Repeat (ad infinitum)
Re: How long has this been goin' on ?
Date: 2005-05-09 03:18 am (UTC)About things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now, it's history
I've played all my cards
And, I guess that's what you've done too
hawt photo btw. Wanna bang?
Re: How long has this been goin' on ?
Date: 2005-05-09 03:21 am (UTC)I don't think so.

Re: How long has this been goin' on ?
Date: 2005-05-09 03:41 am (UTC)Waiting at the corner, she's be dressed in black
There was I expecting a really tasty bird
He said she was good looking, I should have doubt his word
When I saw her there she was a real disgrace
I thought nice legs shame about the face

Date: 2005-05-09 03:52 am (UTC)But I know what I am, and that is a man
And so is Lola
L-l-l-l-l-lola!

Date: 2005-05-09 03:58 am (UTC)I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side
And when you turned to me and smiled, It took my breath away
I have never had such a feeling
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight
The way you look tonight
I never will forget, the way you look tonight
Vinny in red
Vinny in red
Vinny in red
My Vinny in red (I love you.)
