Vocals for this track were the last thing I recorded for these sessions. It was dawn on Monday morning (I had started recording on Friday morning).
It was excruciating how many tries it took to time the samples correctly.
"Fanuel" refers to "Fanuel Durango", which was a nickname somehow given to James Tango, devil J's character in 'Don't Blink With Both Eyes', the spy movie that Link, Sir Kevin, and I were working on;
"Nathaniel" of course refers to Nathaniel And Superfly.
lyrics
Corn in the butter way, shoo fly shoo, skip to my Lou
And we say Fee fi fiddley eye oh on such a winter's day
Gum in the ash tray way, shoo fly shoe...
And we say someone's in the kitchen with Nathaniel
Someone's in the kitchen with Franc
Someone's in the kitchen with Fanuel
Grabbin' at the wheel for a honk
