Mangrove Monitor

from Felted Fruit 2 by Laurie Shaw

/

lyrics

Oh, it's over
Disappeared and flown
Blue light biting in the corners of your eyes
Now your brain is gone
How much do you really really need your phone?
Cards on the table, really need your phone?
How much do you really really need your phone?
I'd prefer to be alone

Crawling on black leather
Like a mangrove monitor
Put you're not, babe, you're not
You're just stuck in a web
And do you know you're the prisoner?

I mean...
How much do you really really need your phone?
I mean, cards on the table really need your phone?
I don't believe that you're going to achieve
But you're so brain-dead from scrolling,
It's just stupid to me
How much do you really really need those shoes
I mean, cards on the table really need those shoes?
You're so puerile
You're so cracked
You're just like your mother,
Why don't you go back?
How much do you really really need yourself?
I mean cards on the table, really need yourself?
How much do you really really need yourself?
I mean cards on the table, really need yourself?
