Howling
This one, the figs were just, you know,
figlets when I made this album.
And our
Fig du
Jour tonight,
Brett
Rosenberg, was just a twinkle in his
dad's eye when I made this album.
In fact, this shirt is older than
Brett is, I swear to

Ian
Dury.
These, yeah.
It's on the back.
Yeah.
The lates, great.
These pants I found as well, they're getting a bit thin here,

They're probably older than
Brett as well, so you know,

a relic up here on stage,
what am I talking about?
Wie hat dir der Song gefallen?
