Floyd,
It just occurred to me what your style of presenting lyrics to the audience reminds me of. In the old song "ODE TO BILLY JOE" remember how the story was intertwined with the dinner conversation:

Quote:
And papa said to mama, as he passed around the blackeyed peas
"Well, Billy Joe never had a lick of sense; pass the biscuits, please
There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow"
And mama said it was shame about Billy Joe, anyhow
Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge
And now Billy Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge


the dinner conversations adds a whole new dimension to the story, actually becoming PART of the story.

YOU have a way of doing that too.. and to me the result is barely short of being magical to the listener.

FWIW, people have speculated for years about the meaning of the song. Here's a link to a lot of conjecture:
