It's 1978 and it's cold and late and dark. Top of the charts today is Candy's Room by Bruce Springsteen. In Candy's room, there are pictures of her heroes on the wall. But to get to Candy's room, you've gotta walk the darkness of Candy's hall.
The walls of my room are covered in painted anaglypta wallpaper. To get to my room you turn on the landing light and walk four short steps past my parents' room and my sister's room. They're all asleep now. Be careful not to make a sound. There's no need to knock.

I bet Bruce had artexed walls.
Still, one of the few of his songs which doesn't bore me to tears, along with "Badlands" and "Born To Run" with its "girls combs their hairs in rear view mirrors". What is he on about, the silly old sausage?
And the boys try to look so hard...for nits.
Hello. I just wanted to give a quick greeting and tell you I enjoyed reading your material.
