This was written about a beautiful girl by the name of Cindy Flanagan who I met during my last days at Pam rent-a-car. She probably doesn’t even remember me now. I sent her a tape of it at her dorm in Boston but she never replied back. After listening objectively to the "I just gargled with broken glass" voice (inspired by believe it or not, Bruce Springsteen) and sexual one-sided lyrics, I can understand why. Musically, the song was influenced by:

1. The Starship's big hit: "Sarah"
2. Steely Dan's "Home At Last"
3. A Dan Robinson song he did with his group Duck 7

I also ripped off the intro guitar idea from one of my first 8 Track attempts entitled "See An M & M". The guitar work (half way decent for me) and horn section are my favorite part of the tune. It's a good "Saturday Night Live Band" combination. If you listen carefully toward the very end you can hear an old out take of "Take Another Chance On Love" (see The Tabacco / DiMauro 8 Track Collaborations).

lyrics

SINDAY

Sinday.... Sinday... Sinday...

Sinday
Grizzle the stove don’t hide the presents mother nature bestowed
Sinday
Better not cry you make me swelter with those chemical eyes ahh...
Sinday
Why’d you have to show up right now? Ahh...
Sinday
I was just about to change my life
Sinday
Bury the spade don’t hide the presets that the factory made
Sinday
Better not slip you make me swelter with those radiant hips ahh...
Sinday
Why’d you have to show up right now? Ahh...
Sinday
I was just about to change my life
Sinday
Why’d you have to show up right now? Ahh...
Sinday
You had to show up right now!
