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

Welcome to the MMLM prompster family.
I look forward to what you have in store as music prompts.
Thank you 🙂
Most welcome. We’re a nice family.
Occasionally I am slow to ping — I pong instead. Depending.

OK – I will admit I am stuck in the ‘oldies’ era and maybe even some folk and show tunes. And I was doing just fine up reading the lyrics up until the ‘knife’ part. Because the first thing I thought of was all the crime scene and murder shows I watch… So I’m not sure how or if I am going to go about this…
Could be she’s just a really good cook… but it just rings a tad sinister to me.
The music is kink of jazz like. So that was cool. Thanks.
I went backward…
