Ode to Pûnkass - The Inside Story
What
a busy day I had when I wrote this one, I had been spending the day working on my image, my Mum at last agreed to dye my hair
and paint my nails for me and then I put my coloured contact lenses in and stuck on this pretty temporary tattoo. Then I read
my e-mails and saw how kind Pûnkass is, he had prepared a special page for me
Punkass's Obvious Devotion to the Wonderful Ellie Bellie Page
I
was so wooed and the effects of this wooing inspired the words for this song, thank you. I had grand plans for this song from
the start. I envisaged it to be one of the slower, softer songs on the cd, just to give the kitties a chance to rest their
ears from all the screaming guitars and perhaps to add some culture to kitties lives, because goddamn it they need it, mm.
As
I wrote the song I could distinctly the gospel choir in this song, and wrote all the bits in brackets to be sung by them.
Yez, as for the video I imagined candles and the like in the background to set a romantic cultural atmosphere. I thought Pûnkass
could be sat at a dining table complete with white table cloth (the shame of it, he has to eat off the floor at home, tut
tut). Then imagined a biiig black spider running across the table to add a bit more atmosfear (as he is my hero he would surely
have to stab the spider with his fork with fake blood gushing all over the pristine white table cloth) and then I decided
it would be a great idea to serve him trout in the video as I was singing to him. I would wear a pink pinny for that bit,
to match my new hairdo).
Well that’s
all fine and dandy, with these reminiscing moments, but without further ago,
I give to you,
Ode Two Pûnkass
(don’t
forget to read the gospel bits in brackets – this bit obviously isn’t in the song, it’s just to remind you
as you’re reading it – you may even want to put your copy on your cd player and sing along now you know the proper
words, mm. Anyway here’s the song, oh, I’ll just announce it again, it will look better that way won’t it?)
