First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect You live you life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line You say you want to spend the winter in Firenza You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect You live your life like a canary in a coalmine You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line Canary in a coalmine

Jenny Anne 02:11
Oh Jenny, My Jenny, sweet Jenny Anne Girl scout runabout taken by the devil’s hand Oh Jenny, How can they ever understand Living just a little was never gonna be your plan You know I used to hang around All the other girls in town Something in your secret smile Said I better stick with you a while And when I saw you at the station On a trip that you were taking Something made me ask you please Don't you want to take a ride with me Oh Jenny, You had to leave them all behind All you ever wanted was everything all the time Oh Jenny, You know you took my heart away Underneath the overpass, singing till the break of day Because I used to hang around With all the other girls in town Something in your secret smile Said I better stick with you a while And when I saw you at the station On a trip that you were taking Something made me want to say I'm gonna make you mine one day

about

These days, I think we can all identify with the canary. Originally performed by The Police, now with a rockabilly twist to remind us there is always light at the end of the shaft.
