The Unicorns, "I Was Born (A Unicorn)"
Hipster Alert! Hipster Alert! I like this version "I Was Born (A Unicorn)" from "Unicorns Are People Too" than the one on "Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone?". Reason? This version has the following lyrics:
...lena horne is not a unicorn
(but she's got a great voice)...
we're paper scissors rock (we're crackle pop!)
we want one-ups (not bran flakes!)
we don't got stirrups (we got the shakes!)
i was born a unicorn
and we'll die with wings
we're the unicorns and we read eunuch porn
we're the unicorns and we're people too
don't you stop believing in me!
(quartz crystals put 'em under your pillow)I like silly and quirky things. A song that includes people yelling, "paper scissors rock (crackle pop!)" is always a win in my book.
of course you love this. I was obsessed with it a few years back, much to the chagrin of everyone around me. I didn't know there were two versions. must. download. now.
ReplyDeleteof course. if it's sort of quirky or off beat, we will both love it. The Unicorns certainly fit the bill.
