Home to Harlem

Claude Mckay presents the mood of the environment through lyrics of songs was very interesting. I think I have never come across a book that described what the characters and the environment felt through a lyric of a song. The lyric brings out life from a book and makes me imagine how the song would have sound. 
"Take  a juicy cocktail cherry, Take a dainty little bite, And we'll all be very merry On a cherry drunk tonight..."(107)

What was your response after reading the lyric to a song or lyric to a poem in the text?
