about

I enjoy the surprise on my friends’ faces when I tell them there is a Dylan song on the album and then sing them a few bars of this elegant satire! The ‘woods between the worlds’ is a reference to ‘The Magician’s Nephew’ by CS Lewis and describes a still, inert place of trees and ponds that exists between realities.

lyrics

Horoscopes and cigarettes and fancy hair
Chocolate cake and Rikki Lake and Marie Clare
Jenny Craig and calories

Reading Tarot cards and the Woman’s Day
With aliens coming down to take us all away
I’m sure they’ve been here for years

Like a dream within a dream, like a looking-glass world
Her life is like a spiral, how it curls
And she’s living in the woods between the worlds

Drinking Diet Coke and cappuccino
Keeping up with Quentin Tarantino
Mortgages and salaries

Stomach tuck and lipo suck are all the rage
But luckily you can’t afford them on your wage
You’ll have to age so gracefully
