SONG LYRIC COINCIDENCES

On June 17th I posted a link on here to a new song on Bandcamp. It turns out that many decades ago Shelagh Delaney came up with a line very similar to one of my lines. Great minds think alike.

NEW SONG ON BANDCAMP

 https://jcduffy.bandcamp.com/track/penny-foolish


PENNY FOOLISH

(DUFFY)


WHO HAS INSIGHTS ON THE WEEK THAT WAS?

PENNY DOES

WHO SPREADS GOSSIP LIKE THE BEES THAT BUZZ?

PENNY DOES


SHE SAYS THAT WISDOM IS JUST SO OVERRATED

SHE WAVES IT OFF WITH A SMILE

SHE DOESN’T THINK LIFE HAS TO BE COMPLICATED

IT’S JUST A MATTER OF STYLE


WHO’LL CHASE RAINBOWS PAST THE FARTHEST HILL?

PENNY WILL

WHO’LL KILL TIME WHEN THERE’S NO TIME TO KILL?

PENNY WILL


SHE TALKS WITH DAVE BUT THEN SHE WONDERS WHAT DAVE MEANT

(DAVE WON A PULITZER PRIZE)

SHE DRAWS A QUESTION MARK OUTSIDE ON THE PAVEMENT

IT’S JUST A WORD TO THE WISE

NEW ON SUBSTACK

 https://substack.com/@jcduffy/note/p-171280347


Many years ago I sent a cassette tape of this little jingle to the Perdue company. They gave me the name of the Madison Avenue ad agency that handles their advertising, but I never followed up with them. The woman who wrote to me included some chicken recipe cards and said that everybody in the steno pool found my song amusing.

NEW ON YOUTUBE

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-k2mJPXkIgs

My latest song and video on YouTube. By the way, I had to recreate my YouTube channel because I got locked out of the old one, so if you subscribed to the old one, you're not subscribed to the new one. A word to the wise, and the wise-adjacent.
