about

Arlene and I wrote this together. For me, at least, it was about us.

lyrics

words and music by
Blair Packham & Arlene Bishop

Doesn’t it seem weird to you
The more unlikely the more it’s true
Like stepping through a looking-glass now, baby
Everything is upside-down
But as long as I have you around
This world of ours just doesn’t seem so crazy

Is it chemical
The way I feel the pull
Of your moon
Is it gravity
Or insanity that brought
You here tonight

Now doesn’t it seem weird to you
The more unlikely the more it’s true
Like stepping through a looking-glass now, baby
Everything is upside-down
But as long as I have you around
This world of ours just doesn’t seem so crazy

Like a big parade
Or a hand grenade
You’re impressive
I’m a racing car
You’re a mason jar
Full of gasoline

How you came to me
I may never know
You’re a mystery
A sweet simile

Like a thunderclap
Or a blasting cap
Unlikely but it’s true

Now doesn’t it seem weird to you
The more unlikely the more it’s true
Like stepping through a looking-glass now, baby
Everything is upside-down
But as long as I have you around
This world of ours just doesn’t seem so crazy

Blair Packham Toronto, Ontario

New album "The Impossible Dream" coming soon! Thirteen years after 2004’s “Could’ve Been King," Blair Packham returned with a collection of clever and heartfelt songs, called “Unpopular Pop.” A bit Beatle-y, with shades of Elvis Costello, Blair’s songs are undeniably all his. He made the record at home and then called on Ron Sexsmith and ex-Barenaked Ladies’ Steven Page to make vocal appearances. ... more
