Now Harry the rich kid’s a friend of his
Who horns in on Mary Jane
But to his great surprise
it seems she prefers guys
Who can kiss upside down in the rain
Not only is that last line absolutely perfect in its unforced quality, but in typing it up I suddenly realized that the verse is in limerick form. Double win!
When Al does this song live, he has one of the crew members standing next to him (looking bored) to hold the harmonica while he plays it (since his hands are busy doing other things). It’s amusingly comical.
