    I think that it's to date the best Norah Jones song. A real dirty blues :)
    And the clip is also very good.

    LYRICS:
    We're an oyster cracker on the stew
    And the honey in the tea
    We're the sugar cubes, one lump or two
    In the black coffee
    The golden crust on an apple pie
    That shines in the sun at noon
    We're a wheel of cheese high in the sky
    But we're gonna be sinkin' soon
    In a boat that's built of sticks and hay
    We drifted from the shore
    With a captain who's too proud to say
    That he dropped the oar
    A tiny hole has sprung a leak
    In this cheap pontoon
    Now the hull has started growing weak
    And we're gonna be sinkin' soon
    We're gonna be sinkin' soon
    We're gonna be sinkin' soon
    Everybody hold your breath
    'Cause we're gonna be sinkin' soon
    We're gonna be sinkin' soon
    We're gonna be sinkin' soon
    Everybody hold your breath
    And down and down we go
    Like the oyster cracker on the stew
    The honey in the tea
    The sugar cubes, one lump or two?
    No thank you, none for me
    We're the golden crust on the apple pie
    That shines in the sun at noon
    Like the wheel of cheese high in the sky
    Well, we're gonna be sinkin' soon

    Maybe the "big heads" forse bad music over and over again till the croud is listen to what they say.

      Norah Jones.....and Sara Bareilles ...and Lady Gaga are about the only three True Talents that I can think of over the past 7 years that I think can really really sing, and/or really really write. Take the m out of the studio, like Gaga-- give her just a microphone and a piano....and listen. shes doing her own song, really well... same with Bareilles... Take a good listen to "Don't know why" by Norah Jones--- it sends chills up my song, the voice so pure.... haven't heard clarity in a voice That Clear since Karen Carpenter.
      So...there out there, just a helluva a lot harder to find.
      Have FUN!

    I guess when a music video is to be thought of there is two entirely different kinds of approach one can take. a narrative one, that could fit with the song. Or something abstract and fun, seen just as a visual representation of whatever could come to ones' mind when they are listening to it. I think she chooses to take the second one. And manages to succeed quite well.
