“Emily’s Vacation”

This satiric song, in waltzish ¾ time, is about a vacationing woman on the make at the resort she’s staying at. As is characteristic for Jake Holmes, the object of his fun-making is a market-oriented personality – and the punch line is some advice that would make his mockery go away. It ends with the use of a psychedelic riff, sounding somewhat like a motorcycle at times, used to empahize the mockery therein.
