Magic Little Moments are like riding in a bumper car

from Words and Music Archives - Tony Funderburk

Do You Look For Life’s Magic Little Moments Life can be hectic. Sometimes even frantic for hard working people. If that describes you, I know you might tend to forget, ignore, or totally miss those magic little moments all around you. But they ARE there. And I like to capture them in song whenever I can. The following lyrics represent a couple of scenes from Anytown, U.S.A. at Christmas time. Maybe you’ll remember something like this from where you live. First, there’s a group of oddballs on a street corner at Christmas time. Then there’s another little “vignette” about a little cat in a big house who found great entertainment in simplicity. Maybe you’ve known an animal like Orion. Anyway…hope you enjoy. And I hope you take the time, each day, to see some… Magic Little Moments There was a ukulele lady on a corner by a Christmas tree And a banjo bandolero with a turquoise pinky ring Behind “˜em was a biker who was tapping on a tambourine And a girl whose lips were moving but you couldn’t even hear her sing And the shoppers did that shuffle that they do when the snowflakes fall Every now and then a spark would dance through a neon light The taxicabs would jockey for position by a store’s front door And that quirky band of minstrels played their music for nothing all night Oh, those magic little moments… Oh, that somehow slip by And oh, those magic little moments… Those sacred vignettes that fade out with the blink of an eye There was a crystal chandelier in  the foyer of a grand estate And the sun created prisms that would decorate the empty hall There was marble on the floor that they waxed maybe twice a week And a cat named Orion who was sure he was the king of it all Late at night he would prowl for a while just to keep himself in shape But he knew he had appointments in the morning that he couldn’t be late for He was up at the crack of dawn and headed downstairs fast So he could chase those little prisms and go sliding cross the marble floor Chorus…instrumental…chorus twice and end © 1992 Tony Funderburk Stay tuned, Get my Rhyme & Reason Podcast delivered (free) right to your player.
