Material Love
Lyrics by Ronnie Peace
Hello Mr Moth
Outside of my window.
Planning a break-in
to chew on my chinos.
Eats my clothes; doesn't suck
He's no mosquito.
Addiction is deep
to things with a bright glow.
Chorus:
Flap your dusty wings
to the light of a
material love,
ma-terial love.
Verse2:
In love with the fabric
of my agalia.
It's a material love
that's sure to ail ya.
It's got me thinkin'
back when the cavemen danced.
What were they eatin'
when we didn't wear pants.
Chorus:
Flap your dusty wings
to the light of a
material love,
ma-terial love.
Rap (in style of Kanye West, or better):
what, what
huh?
I be gettin down like a moth
flappin and a flippin
your clothing i be eatin'
the chewin'
of the gaberdine
is what i'm doin'
that's how i'm dinin'
that's how i'm flyin'
as the watchers they be moth-ing
they be moth-ing
they be moth-ing

Happy Valentine's Day to all ye loved up schmucks from all of us monkeys locked away down here at the Peace'O'Mind factory.]
Wannabe butterflies!! Brilliant work. People should use the word gabadine more..
ReplyDeleteI wrote this around that one word. It evolved from there. You might say it was the fabric that wove this poetic masterpiece together, but you'd just sound lame, so I probably wouldn't. But I appreciate the thought.
DeleteLook. I tried to song this along to Material Girl by Madonna but it didn't work. I think you must be on drugs or something...
ReplyDeleteCoincidentally, the Material Girl is a moth dressed up in butterflies clothing
