Music Prompt #2 “Italian Leather Sofa” by Cake

Welcome to Music Prompt #2

I did my happy dance this morning because I get to jam out with all of you today! I’m honored to be a part of  on Mindlovemisery Menagerie 🙂 I will be providing the tunes, you provide creative darlings for all to enjoy.

My name is Vagrant Rhodia and I hail from the land of Bohemian NERD, a place for words to frolic and Muses to rest.

Note: I have a mixture of different genres in mind but always open to suggestions. Have an idea? Whisper or shout it to me in the comments!

Now on with the show…

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s an island

She doesn’t care just as long as his ship’s coming in

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s an island

They laugh they make money

He’s got a gold watch

She’s got a silk dress and healthy breasts

that bounce on his Italian leather sofa.

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s a good man

She doesn’t care just as long as she still has her friends

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s an island

they laugh, they make money

He’s got a gold watch

She’s got a silk dress and healthy breasts

That bounce on his Italian leather sofa

She’s got a serrated edge

that she moves back and forth

It’s such a simple machine she doesn’t have to use force

When she gets what she wants,

she puts the rest on a tray in a ziplock bag

[REPEAT]

…in the freezer

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s an island

She doesn’t care just as long as his ship’s coming in

She doesn’t care whether or not he’s an island

They laugh, they make money

He’s got a gold watch

She’s got a silk dress and healthy breasts

that bounce on his Italian leather sofa
