Comment:

A couple points:
I discovered that I had to use the formal Mr. to pad out the track listing. In other words: I didn't have enough first names.
When sung by a man, I'm Just Wild About Harry, has homo-erotic over-tones. (I'm just sayin'.)
And finally, for those of you who may know, yes, the title of this disc is a slight bastardization of E. Gorey's Gashlycrumb Tinies.

Very clever, as always. The Ricki Lee Jones tune is such a hoot! And there's something, well, just sweet, about the EJ track.(and I must say that, upon seeing the title, I did think of Gorey--I think my Tea Cozy is haunted.....I can't remember what happened to Nigel, though I do know that someone was "run through with an awl".)
