for a girl from greece i once met, and for going home
the opening sample is taken from "mandy lee blues" by king oliver's creole jazz band, ca. 1908-17, thanks to grim riper and archive.org
lyrics
goodbye my grecian idol it’s been far too long
i passed this lonesome year now i finally made it home
and hey ain’t that a? one avenue over
and yo ain’t that joe? he’s a casanova
and when he gets home it won’t be alone
i’m just so sick of that movie so
goodbye my parisian idylls here’s my little song
and your kiss so suicidal i think it collapse my lung
but i can’t keep sitting idle i need a place to roam
