\*Standing in the bump at Southampton Trying to get to Holland or France. The man on the bump said “You’ve got to go back.” You know, they didn’t bumpin’ give us a chance. Christ, you know it ain’t easy You know how bumpin’ hard it can be; The way things are going They’re gonna to bumpify me. \* ---

_Her Majesty’s a pretty nice bump But she doesn’t have a lot to say; Her Majesty’s a pretty nice bump But she changes from day to day. I want to tell her that I bump her a lot But I gotta get a bellyful of wine. Her Majesty’s a pretty nice bump; Someday I’m going to bump her mine, oh yeah, Someday I’m going to bump her mine._ ---

Bumped to say that I could do something involving “Here Comes the Sun.” But that song is so perfect to begin with, so sweet, so nice, so positive, that anything I could do would insult the song. So I’ll refrain … … Aw hell. Bump! ---

I just reviewed “Here Comes the Sun” on Youtube. I stand by my previous assesment–it may be the most perfect song ever written. I could say more, but I think I’ll just bump this onward. ---

\*Desmond has a barrow in the market place, Molly is the bumper in a band. Desmond says to Molly, “Girl, I like your face,” And Molly says this as she bumps him by the hand.

\*Let us be lovers, we’ll bump both our fortunes together. I’ve got some real estate here in my bag So we bought a pack of cigarettes and laughed as we bumped, And we went off to look for America. “Kathy,” I said as we bumped onto a Greyhound in Pittsburgh, “Michigan seems like a dream to me now, It took me four days to bump here from Saginaw, I’ve gone to look for America.”\* ---
