Critter Confession 4
Hello. We’re the Glitter Chicks.
And we have a confession.
Really, it’s an obsession.
A shameful dream.
A secret fantasy.
A whispered truth only to be revealed at midnight.
You see, we want to be doo-wop singers.
You know what we mean.
We want to croon. We want to sing sweet melodies like the Chantels and Supremes, swinging our hips in sequined outfits and long satin gloves with bouffant feathers.
We want to sing in the prettiest harmonies, bringing sassy life to lyrics like, “Wait a minute, wait a minute, hey Mr. Postman.”
And we dream of traveling the world, bringing our cheerful ditties to sad ears all around.
We want to sing, we want to wiggle, we want to giggle. We want to be a 50s girl group.
Can’t you imagine it?
We would strut out on stage under low lights in our matching glittery gowns. Then we would sing:
“Baby chick,
baby chick,
Oh how I need you.
(OooooAAHHHHoooooo)
But all you do is treat me bad,
Ruffle my feathers and make me tough,
Baby chick, it makes me sad.
(Baby, baby)
Baby chick, oh baby chick,
Why do you do me like you do?
You know my heart’s always been for you.
You know I’ve always been true.
(OooohhAAAAAoooooo.)
Oh baby chick, baby chick,
Don’t throw our love away,
Be mine for another day.”
And we’ve got plenty of other songs to sing about. Songs about love and roosters and broken chicken hearts….
So that, Invisible Friends is our confession. Our dream of being a 50s chick group.
“Baby chick, oh baby chick, we love you….”
Coming to a barnyard stage near you.
Stay tuned, Invisible Friends! We have a week of whimsical fun coming up!
**Song modified from Surpreme’s “Baby Love.”

Just wanted to say hi! I’ve just moved to Prague, and am getting settled in. I’m hoping for a new pie recipe soon!

You and the Glitter Chicks are adorable!

This is so funny! And did I say cute? So cute – you think of the cleverest ideas!

Spangly feathers are just as good as spangly evening gowns. Less traditional, but good.
July 11th, 2009 at 11:36 am
haha I love this! Those ducks are so cute!!
July 11th, 2009 at 4:26 pm
Love the sequined look…I see great things…
July 11th, 2009 at 4:51 pm
Ah, what sweet doo-wop chickies! My daughter was just singing Rockin Robin this morning. Coincidence? I think not!
July 11th, 2009 at 5:14 pm
Ahhh I love the glitter chicks! If they had a concert I would surly attend:) Oh and you can’t find fresh blueberries in Texas??? That is really sad:(
July 11th, 2009 at 5:40 pm
too too cute..
love it…
July 11th, 2009 at 7:35 pm
Is it wrong that this all reminds me of Francesca and the 3 Bay B Chicks?!
I love your new additions to the animal family. I think you should write a Neverending Story about them!
July 11th, 2009 at 7:40 pm
Super cute…I’ll be looking for them on the big stage soon!
July 11th, 2009 at 7:54 pm
I think they would be perfect for the big stage!
July 11th, 2009 at 9:12 pm
Well, I’d buy a ticket! Cute as can be and singing tunes? I’m so there!
July 12th, 2009 at 2:39 am
Super cute, these Glitter chicks! Lovely! hahahahahaha,…
July 12th, 2009 at 4:12 am
Lets hear it for the three chickateers! Such a dork I am.
July 12th, 2009 at 1:54 pm
LOL – I could see these little chickies as doo wop singers.
July 12th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
Which one is Diana?
July 12th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
very cute loovvve the chicks!
July 12th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
This made me laugh out loud, which may have woken Roommate up. I’ve creeped through your blog and I loooove it (extra o’s necessary)
.
July 12th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
LOL, AW!!!! That is so cute! They can sing for me anytime.
July 12th, 2009 at 9:14 pm
Doo-wop singers? You chickas just might be cute enough to pull it off.
July 13th, 2009 at 3:48 am
Those are the flashiest chickens I have ever seen.. they just might make it.
July 13th, 2009 at 8:18 am
Too cute! Love the song.
July 13th, 2009 at 10:39 am
Surely the internet isn’t big enough for a talent like the 3 chicks? The least the universe could give them is a platinum recording artist career!
July 13th, 2009 at 8:54 pm
Oh i want those little chicks!!! Where on earth can I find some? Seriously…..
July 15th, 2009 at 8:43 pm
I’d buy a ticket to the chick concert!
July 17th, 2009 at 6:04 am
Those chicks are destined for a fantastic career – I mean, look at their outfits!
