Wow BugEye! Those versus are amazing! I promise not to plagerize
Have you put music to them? It will be hard to find music that does those words justice - you made my heart stutter. Very succinct and touching, well done.
My lyrics are not so deep lately but just as heartfelt - Imagine a johnny cash type backing
Well since you left me baby
Cheerios I'm eatin' daily
For breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert.
I tried cooking and bowling,
Joined a gym and got a nose ring,
But nuthin' seems to take away the hurt.
So I'm sitting here in my sitting room
Eating Cheerios with a tablespoon
Wearing nothing but a frown and your old skirt
My housemates have moved out
And the landlords giving out,
Saying 'lose that skirt, or find another house
Chorus:
It took so long to accept you didn't care
But Cheerios, they only take a moment to prepare
So I'll just sit here eating Cheerios, pretending I don't care
While you're out there being you and being wonderful
And when you come a crawlin'
Knocking on my door
I'll say sorry, but I'm busy eatin' Cheerios - ya whore
You're dragging up old feelings
And you push them to the fore
And you can take your skirt
It doesn't fit me anymore
I'll be recording these soon hopefully, I'll put them in my sig I think. Do you write much?
