Man Mulcahey ??
Adam Redling
curious cause its something i've been wondering for some time.
I was taught a month ago
To bide my time and take it slow
But then I learned just yesterday
To rush and never waste the day
Well I'm convinced the whole day long
That all I learn is always wrong
and things are true that I forget
But no one taught that to me yet
I ought to see the Man Mulcahey

I ought to see the Man Mulcahey (8x)

The line is believed to be "I ought to see the man Mulcahey" or "I got"
or "I hope", (the tablature book for Billy Breathes indicates the
former) but other suggestions include "I want to see the mammal cages",
"Eye out, I see no manual pages", "Alright, drive me to Ann Arbor,
please", "I-I I've seen the band Mulcahy!" (from <Ston...@aol.com>),
and "I, uh.. ya see, I'm an, uh, a, gee...". Still unclear who Mulcahey
is or might be (nor why someone would want to be driven to Ann Arbor), but:
* Hal Waterman <h...@bitwise.net> thought he "heard Mike say once
that Mulcahey was the hebrew word for king," but Adam Posner
<aposn...@aol.com> responded that "The Hebrew word for King is Melech.
It is possible that Mulcahey is a derivative, since Hebrew is written
with consonants only (vowels are added above or below the letters, but
are most often omitted altogether). I don't know if Mulcahey has any
meaning in Hebrew." Ben Schmidt <&Dupr...@aol.comgt; emailed to say
that the Hebrew word for king is malchia. Gil Shapir <gish...@JTSA.EDU>
reported that "'malchey' in Hebrew means 'MY King'."
* John Davis <by...@freenet.buffalo.edu> said that the weatherman
on a television station in Syracuse, NY, (where Fishman grew up and
where his parents live) is Matt Mulcahey -- as John Davis put it, " In
actuality Fish is requesting a Weather Report, a forecast or prediction,
if you will."
* Nate DeRose <na...@earth.goddard.edu> posted that in On the Air,
a 10-episode 1980s series produced and co-written by David Lynch, "in
the last episode... there is a man only named Mulcahey, who presents
them with a 'voice disintegrater' which ruins peoples voices...."
* Chris Charapata <phish.tra...@usa.net> thinks it refers to
Father Mulcahey from the television series M*A*S*H, who "always seemed
to have a answer or solution to problems" and "taught virtue and
patience and he stressed moral values. Yet, he always had a quasimatic
way of saying things."
* Travis Gates <shaf...@fuse.net> (6/19/98) suggested "I (have,
ought to, etc. - different each time) see/seen the Mad Malkave. This is
short for Malkavian which is a clan of vampires in the RPG Vampire: The
Masquerade. This clan is known for their insanity, hence the "MAD"
Malkave. Check it out, take a listen and see what you think. I can't
hear anything else after discovering this one."
* Tom Marshall reported in an interview [date?] that actually (?)
it's, "I, I ought to clean the Manmahr Cave" (a cave in southern Italy
where Fishman was born)."
* Nick <Nick9...@aol.com> posted (12/7/98) that "the man mulcahey
is what they called Steve Lillywhite, the producer of the album that
song comes on (Billy Breathes)"
* in James Joyce's Ulysses, chpt 6: line 717-731, the caretaker of
the graveyard relates a story/tale about an obscure man named "Terence
Mulcahy from Coombe," whose grave lies in the cemetary. Coombe is an
area in Dublin. The story is that two drunks come looking for Mulcahy's
grave, a friend of theirs, only to realize the grave they are searching
for is not the correct one, and because they are drunk they realize that
they have no idea. So the Mulcahy mystery remains. Even the Joyce
scholars and commentators are unaware of who this Terence Mulcahy is,
and the vastness of Joyce commentaries suggests that no one really
knows. Perhaps Trey is referring to this obscure character in "Ulysses"
as a symbol of having seen through the mystery of life, or something
like that. (Adam Segal <ase...@julian.uwo.ca> 10/18/99)
* "I ought to see the man called betty" Suggested by Christopher
Guinn <gui...@ti.com> on 2/25/99
* "I ought to see the man Paul Kay" after a musician
(<wilson...@webtv.net> 7/11/99)
* "I I I see the grand (or band) marquee" (Buchanan
<buch...@goes.com> 7/5/99)
* "The name of the lead singer from the band Polaris (known for the
theme song to "hey sandy" which is the theme to tv's Pete and Pete) is
Mark Mulcahy." (Daniel Hettinger <airg...@usa.net>)
According to the PHISH Book, when Trey and Tom were in the islands they
were at a stop light and a Jamaican DJ was on air. They couldn't help
but to start singing "got to see the man mulcahey". (Thanks to Tim
O'Neil <ton...@wn.net>)

This sounded right. Because I am from Syracuse and all of what is said here
is true.
