Wow! I agree with Patricia! Joni's guessing at what "Furry" thinks of her.
It only make sense to use a word that an older black man, a blues man, might
use when observing a weak, effeminate, white, chick singer. (Of course WE
all know that she's not weak, effeminate, OR a chick singer!)
The word is from *his* world, not hers. I like it if only because it's a
brilliant choice and I'm willing to give Our Joan all the credit I can.
Swooning (again),

PS- The "limo" in this song might be poetic license, pointing up the
disparity.

Well I'll be! For the last 25 years I thought it was "fey", meaning
eccentric, crazy or a visionary, and it seems to fit. But it is printed as
"fay", do you think it could be a typo?
I like the meaning of short for "ofay".
