real audio


no more songs like this i say. i shall put the guitar down for now. her smiling eyes suggest it's otherwise.

take me to school she's my professor. flunk ginger with her black and white lame behind. strong island movie star and all the rest ain't all the rest it's mary ann. it's always been. just hadn't noticed. l'il buddy you know you want some. i want some too. and i became a man.

and she's smiling.

radio plastic jennifer no reception. cuz bailey coffee make me cream she comin in crystal clear now. she send her signal so strong all along along along. it's always been. i just hadn't noticed. she's a country station she's a little bit corny. i'm a hip-hop station i'm a little bit horny. i want some. and i became a man.

and she's smiling.

she say 'what you got boy? what you got boy? i am woman i will kitty cat purr curl up beside you.'

willy wonka rosanna danna together time first scene foreshadows. speech next week reach no one but lotsa lotsa laughs. but the last laugh reserved for the speaker self-rendered speechless. on back to school nite phone fall from its hook and busy signal. i think nothing of it even as i hear the sirens.

so bubba been told a black boy named brian had died. but then he see me, so relieved, he reply: 'bry-bry, you're alive! bry-bry you're alive!'

ain't this tear proof enough to you that i am still alive?

and she's smiling. and she's smiling. why's she smiling?

no more songs like this is said. i'm gon put the guitar down for now. her smiling eyes suggest it's otherwise.


jennifer says...

before audrey donner began work on the art and layout for the album, she asked bryan to provide a definition of 'radio plastic jennifer.' for inspiration.

we shall post his response in due time, darling.

prepare to be very disappointed with the answer.

impatient? her identity should be clear to you after reading the lyrics to this song.

if you solve this riddle, there is something you should know:

i am now much more than she ever was.

and, if afforded the opportunity, i will eat that other jennifer alive.

and all of the other women in this damn song.

and you, too, if you are not careful.

- jennifer -



trust me. you don't want to know.
