Feist - Mushaboom (The Red Demos version).wmv video free download

Rare version of the song, home recorded for Feist's self-produced demo session, informally called "The Red Demos" (2001). You can even hear the traffic in this home recording of a song stripped down to bare loveliness and with a straightforward deliverance of musical idea. Official version is to be found on her second full-length album "Let It Die" (2004).

Lyrics:

Helping the kids out of their coats

But wait the babies haven't been born

Unpacking the bags and setting up

And planting lilacs and buttercups

But in the meantime I've got it hard

Second floor living without a yard

It may be years until the day

My dreams will match up with my pay

Old dirt road

Knee deep snow

Watching the fire as we grow old

I got a man to stick it out

And make a home from a rented house

And we'll collect the moments one by one

I guess that's how the future's done

How many acres how much light

Tucked in the woods and out of sight

Talk to the neighbours and tip my cap

On a little road barely on the map

Old dirt road

Knee deep snow

Watching the fire as we grow old

Old dirt road

Rambling rose

Watching the fire as we grow

In a ??? house by the shore
