Madam Medusa

In a similar vein, I used to play this as background music when teaching the Perseus Greek myth... and give a bit of more recent history by explaining it was about Thatcher

Reward

When I bought this single, I didn’t have my own record player, so I had to commandeer my sister's and then played this back to back for about an hour.

Bob Dylan's 115th Dream

'...funniest thing was when was leavin' the bay
I spot three ships sailing, and they were all coming my way
I asked the captain what his name was an' how come he didn't drive a truck
He said his name was Columbus, and I just said good luck'

Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river
With a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail
I think you'd better call John
'Cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail
