Fountains of Wayne - Hey Julie

Bueno cada vez aparezco más espaciadamente pero acá vuelvo con otra canción, en este caso de la banda americana "Fountains of Wayne". La banda apareció en el año 1996 y ha tenido un par de veces sus "15 minutos de fama" con canciones como "Radiation Vibe" y "Stacy´s mom" (con un videoclip muy gracioso) La canción que acá les dejo no es ninguna de esas, pero al igual que la última aparece en el disco "Welcome Interstate Managers".
El tema en cuestión es la muy simple y pegajosa "Hey Julie"; (nada que ver con la gloriosa "Hey Jude" de los 4 dioses de Liverpool) Instrumentación acústica, y una melodía cautivante es la receta de este tema, que se hizo conocido al público general en un capítulo de la fascinante y comiquísima serie de televisión "Scrubs".

Hey Julie

Working all day for a mean little man
With a clip-on tie and a rub-on tan
He's got me running 'round the office like a dog around a track
But when I get home,
You're always there to rub my back

Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through without you around

Hours on the phone making pointless calls
I got a desk full of papers that means nothing at all
Sometimes I catch myself staring into space
Counting down the hours 'til I get to see your face

Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through with out you around
No, I'd never make it through with out you around

[Bridge]
How did it come to be
That you and I must be
Far away from each other every day?
Why must I spend my time
Filling up my mind
With facts and figures that never add up anyway?
They never add up anyway

Working all day for a mean little guy
With a bad toupee and a soup-stained tie
He's got me running 'round the office
Like a gerbil on a wheel
He can tell me what to do
But he can't tell me what to feel

Hey Julie,
Look what they're doing to me
Trying to trip me up
Trying to wear me down
Julie, I swear, it's so hard to bear it
And I'd never make it through with out you around
No, I'd never make it through without you around
No, I'd never make it through with out you around
