David Misch's "Somerville"
17/8/08 23:14I was posting a "we need a housemate" ad to the Davis Square LJ community when I found this song:
Somerville, by David Misch.
I downloaded it, and was enchanted. It's the perfect mix of irony and genuine love for a place. Apparently it was very popular on the radio in Boston in the early 70's. I felt like I was getting a little present for coming home.
I couldn't find the lyrics online, so I wrote them up. Here they are.
( The city center there/is filled with streets... )
There was one lyric I couldn't get. Was he mumbling? Is it English? Does anyone know?
