I'm standing in your corridor
I wonder what I'm waiting for
The Leaves are drifting out to sea
I'm waiting for you desperately

All things beautiful
All things beautiful
I want everything
I want everything

You call us with your silent seas
You call us in our tiny boats
Gather us up with the storm
And cast us out upon the shore

All things beautiful
All things beautiful
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything

You're deep inside this fecund swamp
Or let it be your beating heart
You're deep inside this fecund swamp
You call us in our tiny boats

All things beautiful
All things beautiful
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything

I'm not sure why I like this. Just had a huge argument with my brother regarding whether the Derek Trucks Band would fit at the Elko Motorcycle Jamboree, and then it went into why the Jamboree started as a grass-roots gathering and has now become governed by the city, with rules and regulations and high fees...

Fire bad. Tree pretty.  I love the Derek Trucks Band.  And I love this song, because it has the same resonance, the same melancholy hope.

I can't write more on this... I just know it feels good for me, right now.{#Sunny}

Is there another song on RP that has "fecund" as part of the lyrics?

This entire record is outstanding.  Hidden track #69 Eurotrash Girl is stellar.

Any song with lyrics that include the word "fecund" gets a 9. It's the law.

You'd figure that anyone who doesn't like Cracker should probably realize RP isn't for them.

I was a stupid man in 2019 when I refuse to wait to hear Cracker as the third band to play a venue, because their show would have started at 9:30  pm, on  a week night.  

The good news: I went to an outside patio bar, met two young girls, who just came back from Bonaroo, and we had drinks and watch thunderstorms roll across the sky.   

I wrote a subsequent essay entitled: "A moment of Time with the Virtuous Bonaroo Girls".   Their virtue is soming I call "Innocence and Curiosity"....a combitorial virtue.

You are the love.

saw Cracker a few months ago at a small  venue on a whim. I was really impressed with them. Johnny Hickman is one of the top guitar showmen I have seen. If they play near you, go see them!

This wouldn't normally be my cup of tea (or glass of Shiraz) but I like it.  Plus, Kerosene Hat is a really cool name for an album.
