The Great Gatsby's Pumpkin
Instrumental Future Lounge track; title collides F. Scott Fitzgerald's Jazz Age opulence with the humble domesticity of a pumpkin.
Summary
Instrumental. The title is a deliberate incongruity: Gatsby's world is champagne towers and green lights, not root vegetables. The pumpkin — harvest, homeliness, Cinderella's carriage — deflates the grandeur. The joke implies that even Gatsby's parties eventually end and someone has to cook dinner.
