Story about this misheard lyric by: Felix I first heard flue was not only influenza but also a stove pipe, and it almost made sense. Dusty place isn't it? Then I learned flew is a fishing net. Try and dust that one! Thus flew came in reasonably as well, groggy times as they were back then. Of cause the demon messes in the glue, what else? Surprised that it comes to me so late. Been listening to this piece for forty years now. |

Lighter Side of Serious Bands:
"Mother's Lament"
The blues psychedelia of Cream, led by Eric Clapton's majestic guitar work, was briefly interrupted by this music-ditty....the last track on the classic album Disreali Gears. "A mother was washing her baby one night, The youngest of ten and a delicate mite. The mother was poor and the baby was thin, 'Twas naught but an skelingtin covered with skin. The mother turned 'round for a soap off the rack. She was only a moment but when she turned back Her baby had gone, and in anguish she cried, "Oh, where 'as my baby gone?" The angels replied: Oh, your baby has gone down the plug 'ole. Oh, your baby has gone down the plug. The poor little thing was so skinny and thin, He should 'ave been washed in a jug, in a jug. Your baby is perfectly happy; He won't need a bath anymore. He's a-muckin' about with the angels above, Not lost but gone before. "
