Ah ! I was in the Midwest for a number of years, so I am familiar with it ! And my Basic Training and Tech School was in Texas. So at one time I saw the Alamo and the riverfront in San Antonia ! And the Texas Ranger; I think it is , in the Dallas Airport !

Thank You , Mr CouCou !I think I meant to say "I'm Fed Up" where I hear the strange words ! for instance I hear
"Ice Cream and Sunshine" and "Umbrella" and "Chicken" and " I Cried a Treasure " at some points; which I am fairly sure she is not saying that in the lyrics, but then my hearing must be really defective ! Ha ! I guess I will have to consult a list of the lyrics in english to make sure. At some points she reverts to a stanza in French ! So , perhaps I will end now, before peoplr think I am crazy ! Ha !
