lyrics

SNEAK PAST THE MIRROR


I feel like a youngster, like I’m still in the race
Like all my body parts are, still in the same place
And I sneak past the mirror, so I won’t have to see my face
So I won’t be reminded that my life is flying by at such a pace.

The beginning has ended, and the end is beginning
In the salt and pepper contest, the salt is winning
And I sneak past the mirror, so I won’t have to see
That guy with the crow’s feet and the chrome-dome, that can’t be me.

The future never gets here, as it’s about to arrive
It becomes the past and I, realize that I’ve
Tiptoed past the mirror, so I don’t have to face my fear
So I won’t be reminded, that fateful day is drawing near

They say that time flies, when you’re having fun
But please don’t fly too far, ‘cause my fun has just begun
As I walk past the mirror, I stop and look me in the eye
‘Cause that young boy he’s still in there and he will never die
We will never die.

Jennis Toronto, Ontario

Jennis (Dennis Gaumond & Jen Gillmor) delivers more sound, variety and fun than one would think could fit into a single touring vehicle. The unique blend of cello and dobro is also augmented by unusual sounds, such as didgeridoo, custom-tuned harmonicas, flute, wah-guitar, jaw harp and wazinator. Their sound is bluesy, at times funky, jazzy or folky, with a hint of exotic ethnic influences. ... more
