Jason Rubero: Music

At The Zoo (2003)

(Jason Rubero)
May 21, 2003
Written about, and for, Violet.

Short, sweet, and very much from the deepest recesses of my heart.

The musical style and treatment was inspired, I think, by the Waterboy's 'Room To Roam' album.
If I were a poppinjay
I tell you what I'd do
If I were a poppinjay
I'd fly right into you

I'd tell you all my little dreams
And some big ones

I love you so
I love you from head to toe
I've got no language to explain it
In case you didn't know

If I were a zookeeper
I tell you what I'd do
Forget about the lions and the zebras
I'd make a home just for you
You could become a new beast every week
Just imagine:

A body with wings and horns
And the head of a unicorn
I've loved you since before
The day that you were born

Oh yeah.....
