Crazy Sprinkler Lady, Re-scored

When I first watched yesterday’s rant against rainbows that ain’t natural, I was struck by the simple, almost melancholy video of her backyard intruder. I went to the piano this afternoon to give it a more appropriate soundtrack.

    An altogether different feel.

    Damn, Mike D. A melancholy film score and a fart verse — all in the same afternoon.

    I suppose a melancholy song about farting (or of melancholy farts) would bring things full circle.

    I’d not be surprised to learn that our fellow Flocker Cooper Renner had composed such a ditty. He too is a versatile fellow — and inclined to such things.

    i’m put in mind of linus and charlie brown talking quietly together in that backyard as the sun dappled water rainbows over them…

    that’s a good thing, mind.

    I love this, Mike. Well played. For some reasons I am having visions of Mr. Roger’s neighborhood.

    I wonder if anyone has made love to that poor woman lately. Hell, I wonder if anyone made love to Mike Dresser.
