Ciao, my shining star.
It was hardly to
To bring on the look you know so well
When I walked down on Henry.
And the notes you left behind
So often unkind but not from you
I was making a wish
That you were really miss
You have taken my advantage away
Miss Popcorn well I must say
You take a little stumble,
Well that's understandable my dear,
But you can't slip right through it all

Don't I always get around alone
Then I bumped into you
And now you just keep on bumping me back
It's big heart you have
And I have a great big head
So empty inside but for my thoughts of you
Whas that insignificant ?
It was the very first time I'd shot down. Merlin said
I shot down all my whole life.
That big fat fisherman
Keeps swimming in
Fishing for a fish.
And i was making a wish
That you were really miss
That you were really miss.

I was making a wish
You have taken my advantage away
Miss Popcorn well I must say
You take a little stumble
Well that's understandable my dear
But you can't slip back through it all
You have taken my advantage away
Miss Popcorn well I must say
You take a little stumble
Well that's understandable my dear
But you can't slip right trought it all
Slip right trough it all
Slip right through it all...

One more great song from Mark Mulcahy's Fathering.
Played very often since august 1998. They didn't play it at the last gig of the tour (Paris, cabaret sauvage) but they played another songs of Mark's : Mayflower.
The lyrics on the right are the lyrics sung by Andy in Marseille (23/01/1999). The lyrics on the left were sung all the other times this song was played.
