A Candymaker's Knife In My Handbag - The Fiery Furnaces[00:00:00]
A night out in the tropics[00:00:28]
Turned out I couldn't cope[00:00:30]
After the School of Fancy Cookery[00:00:32]
With Antoinette Pope[00:00:35]
I learned brazing and saucing meringue and sift[00:00:37]
Knead flute and flour[00:00:40]
Each Thursday for an hour[00:00:42]
Cobblers and plum cakes tarts savory and sweet[00:00:48]
A candymaker's knife in my handbag[00:00:50]
A candymaker's knife in my handbag[00:00:59]
Well I learned brazing and saucing meringue and sift[00:01:03]
Knead flute and flour[00:01:07]
Each Thursday for an hour[00:01:09]
Cobblers and plum cakes tarts savory and sweet[00:01:14]
A candymaker's knife in my handbag[00:01:17]
A candymaker's knife in my handbag[00:01:25]
That night I was to meet my husband's father [00:01:28]
For the very first time[00:01:30]
I wore the scarf he sent to me[00:01:31]
French silk scarlet blue and cream[00:01:33]
He sits he waits a coffee on his knee[00:01:37]
I wonder if it's as bad as it might seem[00:01:40]
Zapped by the Zombie[00:02:03]
Zapped zapped by the Zombie[00:02:05]
Zapped by the Zombie in the two-door Dodge[00:02:09]
Twice-baked brioche and pastry pockets[00:02:13]
And lock its two-door Dodge[00:02:18]
Zapped by the Zombie[00:02:24]
Zapped zapped by the Zombie[00:02:27]
Zapped by the Zombie in the two-door Dodge[00:02:30]
And I did not fail[00:02:38]
To bust off a nail[00:02:40]
As the Dodge door handle dodges my hand[00:02:41]
Delicate delicate hold my hand[00:02:44]
Delicate nectarine upside-down chiffon cake[00:02:46]
Dodge down the downtown loop the loop lightly[00:02:48]
Hazelnut baby loaves[00:02:51]
Hazelnut baby loaves[00:02:53]
Hold my hand inside-out upside-down marzipan Milanese[00:02:55]
My brain is a blur[00:02:59]
Hodge-podge - cardinal slice - two-door brand new[00:03:01]
What am I gonna do[00:03:03]
'Cause on the street the amber lights were hellish hot[00:03:05]
And the wind in the windows was not giving air[00:03:07]
And tropical Napeolons[00:03:10]
But it was too late and I didn't care[00:03:10]
And I didn't care[00:03:13]
Because first I went to meet Dr Christopolous and his wife Claudette[00:03:14]
Who at the time was my close girlfriend[00:03:17]
They picked my up in their brand-new Dodge[00:03:19]
And we went to Trader Vic's or Mr Rick's[00:03:20]
And I ordered like the others a Zombie[00:03:22]
And it bombed me it just bombed me[00:03:24]
And when we got to the stoop my father-in-law said "Were you attacked "[00:03:26]
My aunt being helpful [00:03:29]
Said something that made my heart just go sunk[00:03:30]
And with a look on her face like something had stunk[00:03:32]
"She's just drunk " she hissed[00:03:34]
I reached for the arm of the armchair and missed[00:03:36]
A night out in the tropics[00:03:57]
Turned out I couldn't cope[00:04:00]
After the School of Fancy Cookery[00:04:02]
With Antoinette Pope[00:04:04]
I wore the scarf he sent to me[00:04:06]
French silk scarlet blue and cream[00:04:10]
He sits he waits a coffee on his knee[00:04:13]
