Man of the Hour

Being an avid Norah Jones fan, I bought her new album, The Fall. It is very different from anything else I've heard from her... But different is not all bad. I had it playing while I was getting ready one morning (which is the time I often get to know a new CD) and I had almost finished with it. I was trying to decide whether or not to give it a few more goes or not. There was the possibility it could grow on me, but I wasn't sure if I wanted it to....

Until I heard the last song...

Cracked me up. Sat on my floor (because every other place to sit in my room was overed in laundry) putting on my shoes laughing so hard.


It is called Man of the hour. Here is a link if you'd like to listen to it: Man of the Hour

Here are the lyrics...
It's him or me
That's what he said
But I can't choose between a vegan and a pot head
So I chose you
Because you're sweet
And you give me lots of loving and you eat meat
And that's how you became my only man of the hour

You never lie and you don't cheat
And you don't have any baggage tied to your four feet
Do I deserve
To be the one
Who will feed you breakfast, lunch and dinner and take you to the park at dawn
Will you really be
My only man of the hour

I know you'll never bring me flowers
Flowers, they will only die
And though you'll never take a shower together
I know you'll never make me cry
You'll never argue, you don't even talk
And I like the way you let me lead you when we go outside and walk
Will you really be
My only man of the hour
My only man of the hour
My only man of the hour
