A Candymaker’s Knife In My Handbag

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]
