Today's song is Morrissey's live cover (Boston, October 2007 being the only time as far as I can tell?) of this Randy Newman composition - originally written for Frank Sinatra Jr. (who never used it) but then made popular by the Alan Price Set for whom it was a UK hit in 1967, when Morrissey was 8. It has also been covered by the Muppets, Harry Nilsson and Okkervil River.
The song's first line, of course, is: "I may go out tomorrow if I can borrow a coat to wear"...
Anyway, what do we think? [Back to more straightforward Morrissey content tomorrow.]
