Coming in soon - one of the few ballads I have written

The song works with a prominent second voice in this case a female backing trio - it takes a school ground rhyme - though the song is not whimsical.

 

 

VERSE PART A

I had a friend

She was my love

Said I wasn’t good, enough

She’s cosmic ice

 

Drainded me

Like a pack of smokes

Said you make me sick, make me, choke

One sellout vibe

 

She let me drift

Let me loose

Nowhere rides on a subway, recluse

I’m Outa sight

 

A poor white man

On a wild new beat

On the shores of love

Where flirtin’s, cheap

Soul groove night

 

 

 

CHORUS 1

Here on

Earth, Venus

And Mars

      (Mars  Lisa and Jasper sitting on a tree K I  S S I N G)

 

 

We are

Earth, Venus

And Mars

       (Mars – first comes love then comes marriage then comes baby in the baby carriage)

 

 

VERSE PART B

And all the while

She held my hand

And with each brush

A new, demand

Layin a trip

 

I chained myself

To her once more

She touched my face

A new civil, war

Electro hip

 

 

CHORUS 2

Here on

Earth, Venus

And Mars

      (Mars  suckin his thumb, wettin his pants, doin the hoochie coochie dance

 

 

We are

Earth, Venus

And Mars

      (Mars  suckin his thumb, wettin his pants, doin the hoochie coochie dance

 

 

VERSE PART C

A poor white man

On a wild new beat

On the shores of love

Where flirtin’s, cheap

Soul groove night

 

And all the while

She held my hand

And with each brush

A new, demand

Do your thing
