Frosted Flake Wood

Back


Frosted Flake Wood (Hooverphonic)

Johnny went to frosted flake
To go for a walk in the frozen wood
He bumped into a mushroom
That sold his body for some warm food
'eat me my friend, you'll be the leader of the band'
Johnny's hand reached out
Luckily there was mr doubt
Mr doubt the old man was the surveyor
Of frosted flake wood
He tried to sell hesitation wherever he could
'buy some doubt'
Feel free he yelled loud
'friends it won't hurt'
Luckily there was big bird
For god's sake run away
Or it won't be your lucky day
Leave this forest behind
This ain't a place for human kind

Did you see the mushroom?

I must admit I didn't take it in on first watching. I must have been hypnotised by the tree. Thank you for replying when you did. It's very apt. Were the lyrics there when you first posted this?

I think the lyrics were there when I posted this version. The tree is on the walk at the side of the house. This tiny mushroom was the only one around there. It's called a "liberty cap". If you were looking you'd have never found it! It was the size of my tip of my pinky finger and my attention was drawn to it by some mysterious influence that was trying to get me to eat it. (I didn't) You can see in the video the "frosted flakes" on the wood around.

Nature's mysteries!

The contrast is perfect.

I assume you mean lighting for that final shot... I got really lucky or perhaps there was some unseen intervention. ;-) Yesterday was the first real rain for six months, I'm going to go look today and see if their back...

I was tempted to eat it. It was beckoning.

ha ha and You did not succumb to your desire!

Well tempted is the wrong word really. I felt like (something) wanted me to eat it. I wasn't that interested really. I am very curious what the experience would be like. Did you see the song lyrics in the comments?

This tree is most likely a thousand years old.
