"WHAT A MAD RUMBLE OF UTTER IRRESPONSIBILITY !!!"
The lines in this song somewhat slay me. It is a loveable romp into the absurd. It has hardly blues but it does have a bluesy feel to it. It certainly isn't jazz. But that was how it was presented to me when I was first introduced to it. Its none of the above really.... but the lyrics are interesting........
"I left myself and now you're the lonely one....." YIKES. But this is true. If you are in a position where you are completely bombarded with lights, images and sounds and new experiences there is a good chance that you will not remain the same, (un) loveable person that someone saw in you.... in fact, there is a strong likelihood that you will emerge a completely different animal in roughly as a months time.... if left unattended and allowed to go through these multiple changes as Mother Nature intended.....
Hitchcock certainly did that with his band in the Soft Boys and as a solo artist. But is part of the inner wunderkind that embodies his music. That metamorphasis is encouraging at the least.
