Man of the Hour

It's him or me that's what he said
But I can't choose between a vegan and a pot head

So I chose you because you're sweet
And you give me lots of lovin' and you eat meat
And that's how you became my only man of the hour

You never lie and you don't cheat
And you don't have any baggage tied to your forefeet

Do I deserve to be the one who will feed you breakfast, lunch and dinner
And take you to the park at dawn
Will you really be my only man of the hour?

I know you'll never bring me flowers
Flowers they will only die
And though we'll never take a shower together
I know you'll never make me cry

You never argue, you don't even talk
And I like the way you let me lead you
When we go outside and walk
Will you really be my only man of the hour?

My only man of the hour

--Norah Jones, "Man of the Hour"

LG got a fish.  Now she's a proud parent.  This song makes me want a dog.  Or a man.  I'd take a man too.

AHAHAHAH HOW have I never heard this song before?!

I'd even take a vegan man!

p.s. Everytime I see your title from our NYC trip (One Short Day in NYC) I sing it as "One short day in the Emerald City" from Wicked. LOVE IT!
