"Fun for me" - Moloko

I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream I'm on a train and it is making music,
I don't remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than King Kong,
I heard the bells the bells a'ringing a'ding dong ding dong,
I dreamt that I was sitting in the devil's company,
He gave a solemn promise fe fi fi fun for me,
I dreamt that I was chasing the monster out of me,
I caught him in the corner ha ha hee hee hee,
I dream I'm in a tunnel between here and now,
Scooby do-be where would you be bow wow wow wow,
I dream I'm at a crossroads no place left to go,
I look in each direction eenie meanie miny mo,
I dream I am an ostrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm that's a playing fantastic elastic band,
I dreamt that the bogeyman went down on Mr Spock
Sugar was a flowing sock it to 'em sock
I dreamt I saw a moo cow jump across the moon
Just a flight of fantasy zoom zoom zoom
I dreamt I met a spaceman he took me to his ship,
You know he cut my hair off snip snip snip
I dreamt that I was sleeping asleep for heaven's sake
The dream that I was dreaming caused me to awake
I dreamt that I was way up I was standing on the top
With the feeling I was falling bop beep bop
I dreamt that I was jumping in a circus through a hoop,
Someone saw the lights off shoo-be-doop
I dreamt that I was fast I was never shutting up,
I was going in a hurry I was giddy-up giddy-up
I dream I'm in the park I'm standing in the nudey,
I was getting what I wanted tootie fruity tootie fruity,
I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream I'm on a train and it is making music,
I don't remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than King Kong,
I heard the bells the bells a'ringing a'ding dong ding dong,
I dream I am an astrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm that's a playing fantastic elastic band,
Fe fi fi fun for me.

Del álbum Do You Like My Tight Sweater (1995)


*******

Resulta raro encontrar que hay tres videos distintos de la misma canción :P Yo sólo conocía una versión que según lo que he investigado fue la última y pertenece a 1997. Hoy me entero que hay una versión primigenia que tal parece sólo se conoce en Inglaterra y finalmente hay otra que es la que presento y que tiene como slogan "versión oficial" con Roisin Murphy, cantante de Moloko, vestida de enfermera.

Fun for me fue la canción que me descubrió a Moloko y su estilo musical un tanto indefinible allá por 1996 0 97. La voz sonaba muy negra, a veces muy soul, como en la canción Pure pleasure seeker . La instrumentación muy funky como queda demostrado en Sing it back y en Forever more

Vamos, que estoy segura que una buena sesión de Moloko no deja impávido a nadie y puede recargar tus pilas mientras sacudes el esqueleto ;-)
