Tom Hannah takes the lead vocal on this. It is a Waltz and has a folky ambience with wistful and satirical tone. Barbara Snow joins in forming a duet.

lyrics

Something Fluffy

Why can't we leave it all behind?
Let's think of how we'll fill the hours.
We'll go for all the healthy options
A life of beneficial salads and flowers

There's something I saw the other night
(I watched it with you, remember?)
A man and his wife were baking bread
(We'll have to find out how that's done)
Their working week was in computers
But now they've gone for something fluffy instead.

Dreaming and planning their lunch
With a buzz in the air
Off set their footprints with candles
They bought at the fair.

They seem so much happier than us
(And she seemed so much prettier than me)
Perhaps we should follow where they've led
(Would that be Italy or France?)
Let's sell the DVD collection
And go for something fluffy instead.

Dreaming and planning our lunch
With a buzz in the air
Off set our footprints with candles
We bought at the fair.

Let's make a list of things to do
(I'll go and fetch a pen and paper)
Include all those books we've never read
(You must remind me what they are)
And try to get it all completed
Before the day when you and I end up dead
(That won't be for a long, long time)
When life becomes so hard and crunchy
It's time to go for something fluffy instead.
