Must have heard the same song twenty times.
Mama sang and put the make up on her eyes.
We were getting ready to go.
School and the work whistle blow.
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around.
Rush, rush, rush around.
I remember thinking this just can't be right.
Got to be a better way to live you life.
Slow like a soft Southern breeze.
Nobody take time to breathe.
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around.
Rush, rush, rush around.
Ooo what you do, I dreamt of you yesterday.
Ooo what you do, you come to me then fade away.
Sometimes a memory is hard to bear.
Don't know how a thing so old could still be there.
When I fell the rain in my soul.
I give it up and I go.
Everybody had to rush, rush, rush around.
Rush, rush, rush around

I'm glad that Edie is back. I liked her stuff, especially with New Bohemians. Seems she sort of took a LOONNG break after marrying Paul. Always had interesting intonations and phrasings, in the vein of (as somebody pointed out,) Rickie Lee Jones, but toned down.
Agreed!

You're right-- it's not awful. But to disappear form the music scene for so long and then come storming back with this? We're not impressed. She could stay gone and we'd be no worse for it.

Mind if I borrow this comment and apply it to several other songs? (few of which are played on RP, by the way)
Seriously folks, this song was not THAT bad.

I like the sound of the new Edie. It's more mature. While this may not be the best song on the album, I have heard the whole thing and it is excellent! Definitely worth checking out.
When did Eddie turn into Rickie Lee?

Agreed. I like an eclectic mix, but this one gives me stomach pain. ;-)
Please leave the singing to Mr. Simon. =;
