i was listening to harry's house - center piece the other day...something which i've listened to a hundred times....but i was really intrigued by the layers in the song and the changes. i even liked her saying....get down off there!!!....something which i didn't really like before for some reason. and she says something like...schools of yellow taxis...which i thought was a great lyric. anyway, i guess it made me think that she was singing about selling out for the take home pay...only not really cause she can't sustain a lifetime waiting home for him...and that made me think about joni having a constant dual thing going with wanting to be the home body family person but ultimately seeking refuge of the road.
