Meet KEN RICHARDS,
one helluva singer.
Not a copy.
but the real thing.
Warmth.
Substance.
Dimension.
…So listen!
Note: Well, that certainly was prophetic.

Municipal Auditorium, Nov.
Song note cont:
14. If she’d written this when she was 15, ok.I mean this is
Melanie Safka. But compare “Candles in the Rain” -> “Lay Down”.
Maybe it is a euphemism for sex. My theory is that the key is
for a car. (1) You buy a new set of skates, the key is included.
(2) “Don’t drive no car…”; “… who don’t drive…” [a car?]
