27 Jennifers

Dang it! Hahahahaha... its so funny what kind of experiences the internet enables. Case in point:

1. I see a guy on BART with a "man sack" that makes me think of Darcy
2. I remember to tell Darcy over IM and he says he still wants one.
3. I go tripping around the internet looking for "man sack"
4. I find a link to a blog entry from Mike Doughty saying he bought a one.
5. I go to his home page, where I see a promo for a new song "27 Jennifers"
6. I listen to the song on MySpace and decide to look up the lyrics.

Its just funy because my birthday is on thee 27th, and the fact that there are SO MANY (a veritable plethora!) of Jennifers.

Anyway, the song made me smile, so here are the lyrics (you can listen to the song on myspace)

27 Jennifers
by Mike Doughty

I went to school with 27 Jennifers
16 Jenns, 10 Jennies, and then there was her

It’s the sweet shine of,
Yeah, force of divine love
The blessed arrival of you

You might be the one that I’ve been seeking for
You might be the strange delightful
You might be the girly who shall end all girls
You might be the sweet unspiteful

I rode the bus with 27 Jennifers
15 Jenns, 10 Jennies disapproved of her

Yeah, get from my sight, man,
Gladness is a blight, and
Happiness stinks up the room
