Carpenters on lite jazz radio

[Rudy]

I just discovered an interesting fact about this song. I've read some articles giving a bit of grief to the fact that Karen changed the lyrics on this song from "Four in the morning, crapped out, yawning..." to "...tapped out...".

That is ironic, though--after the "suggestive" lyrics on other songs, the "crapped out" phrase is tame in comparison!

I dug the concert out since we're attending a Moody Blues concert on Tuesday at that very Tower Theatre, and was surprised to hear Mr. Simon singing the changed lyrics.

Are you going for the music, or the contact high? If you have a sudden urge for snack food, you'd probably better head for the fresh air.

I alway's thought Karen changed the lyric to "crashed out" instead of "tapped out." I will have to listen to the song more closely.

You're right -- she does sing "crashed out". I could've sworn it was "tapped out", but -- there you go.
