Barbership

Once upon a time. At the German mini relaxa con “Filky Days“, which took place a long time ago in a small holiday house far far away … 😉 We had a lot of flies pestering us, that year. And, as filkers do, we sung about it spontaneously. Steve was at the height of one of his barbershop phases, and thus, it sounded through the house: “There’s a fly on me, in the kitchen…”

Since we found that this was an entertaining in-joke but maybe not all that presentable to a larger/different audience, Barbership filked their first barbershop song together, that weekend: “Fly Away“. We then decided that we should do this more often. Lucky us; Eva discovered her funny bone and continued to write amazing and fun lyrics for the next years to come 🙂

 

Fly away, in a starship, fly away … and I wonder where my future waits for me…
