orbiting monica

A song about a spacy girl who's both attractive and repellent.

v1

priestess of bliss

a pipeline to every kind of mys-tic-al

knowing...knowing

v2

mistress of chance

there are no accidents, it’s all

meaning

chorus 1

orbiting Monica

goddess of truth

ev-ry-thing is orbiting Monica

so many moons...

v3

down on your knees, boy

your ego’s a weed in her garden of

growing...growing

chorus 2

orbiting Monica

gone for a spin

dazzle-a-ting every dimension

she’s currently in

smack on the spot

where all endings begin

everybody’s orbiting Monica

cause she always wins!

at the center of a quantum-teenage Universe of Light

hand-picked by Monica ‘cause it’s just felt so right

i butterfly around her, butterfly around her, butterfly-fly

always looking in from the outside

her brand/kind of wisdom is not mine

lift up her lid and who knows what you'll find..?

solo

v4

nope

don’t get the joke

but Mon-i-ca’s laughing...laughing

v5

zoned-out on space

spliced/hip to her place

in the great cosmic flowing

chorus 4

orbiting Monica

so damn far out

can ya, can ya read me, Monica?

over and out?

highest of lotuses

coldest of cools

satellized by too many christophers

too many moons!

at the center of a micro-teenage Universe of Light

the gift of Mon-i-ca al-ways denied

still I’m lookin’ in from the outside

her brand of wisdom is not mine
