Paul Ryan-Fifi The Flea,Barry told me that "It was the first time Paul had been in front of the mike on his own, and spent 5 hours with Graham Nash getting it right" i think he got it just right, thanks Paul for such a sweet song one of my faves.Barry has got a new webb address it is,

Fifi the flea fell in love
with a clown from a flea circus fair
she gave him her heart
but he still couldn't see
that for such a long time she had cared
he put himself round all the other girl fleas
unaware that he hurt her so bad
she cried in the arms of his manager friend
and declared that she loved the clown madly.
One day Fifi went and this drove the clown wild
the poor little flea started crying
never you mind his manager said
i ought not to tell but she's dyin'
dyin' for love of you little flea
you've broken her heart with your lyin'
she couldn't stand to see you throw
her love away without tryin'
The day Fifi died the little clown vowed
he'd tend her grave every hour
he broke down and cried when he saw her grave
and on it he placed a flower
poor little flea he's wasted away
he lost his Fifi forever
so they opened her grave and put him inside
now at last they are together.
