It's been a while since I updated...

So I took a trip down memory lane the other day - I brought 3 of the 4 seasons of an American tv show from the mid-nineties called Caroline in the City. I loved this show when it was on tv over here in England and so to actually get the DVD's is a godsend - however it's started my mini obsession again and now with the aid of the internet right in my living room I've been roaming cyber space to be a nosy bugger!

One of the websites I came across is for one of the actors Malcolm Gets who plays the male lead character of a depressive would be artiste called Richard Karinsky in the show. On this website are a few media clips and one of them is of a song he sings called Way Ahead which is basically about a caveman singing and alluding to the fact that he is gay. It's a fab song and I have the lyrics stuck in my head!

If you wana check out the video go to www.malcolmgets.com/media.php and select wayahead

ANYhoo here come the lyrics (excuse the way I've written them out, I did it very quickly):

Intro

Today’s the day your son becomes a man papa
Today he claims a mate and joins the clan papa
Or that’s what you’d expect, from any son who walks erect
Well I’m sorry but I’ve got a different plan papa

I’m not like the other cavemen
Mother Nature gave men a brain
But for most of them it’s all in vain
They got no reason or rhyme
Undeniably I’m way ahead of my time

Remember when you took me hunting for Mastodon
How at first I nearly fainted, then I hurried home and painted
People saw my sketch and learned the story and past it on
Cus it was plastered on the wall, for the glory of us all

With a spear in hand I fear I’m ineffectual
But I might just be the world’s first homo-sapien, who’s an intellectual

I’m not like the other cavemen
All the gruff and grave men I greet
Like to hunt and grunt and eat raw meat – urgh!
They seem at home in the grime
Undeniably I’m way ahead of my time

Remember when the days were chilly and plisticine
How you made me those pajamas from the skins of woolly mammoths
Only nower days it’s not so frozen in iceticine
It might be nice to see new clothes, in a style that I’ll propose

You know I’d never put myself in jeopardy
But I swear that I would kill for something sleek and leopardy

Because, I’m not like the other cavemen
Can’t you see I crave men-y things, that a low brow lifestyle never brings
No chance for something sublime
Undeniably I’m way ahead of my time

OH I’m sick of all these dances with that ooga booga CRAP
If only I could show you all the steps I got on tap (just watch me)
*taps* See me shine papa
*taps some more* ooh I’m on fire! Here we go!
*taps even more* I’ll tell you what fire is later
*taps into a finish*

Oh but I’m not like the other cavemen
Virtuous and bravemen...No Doubt!
But the kind that I could do without
They got no reason or rhyme
Undeniably I’m...gonna have to say…PA! Can’t you see I’m...WAY ahead of my TIMEE!
*flourish pose to finish*


Thanks to www.malcolmgets.com for having the brilliant clip on there for me to find and enjoy!
