lyrics

circa 1960 moms 10 and hitting teens
pimples n simplicity in her demeanour
ask her then what she'd like to see
how she'd like to be
she'll run to the big screen
still no tv for mr gemini
seducing his dame
amidst the flowers of kashmir
to quench this mating game
love be the elixir
especially when ur a lil girl
staring n gazing n hoping n waitin
for princely mr charming
aint no coming back from the dreamin
can be alarming
when suddenly
you're 23 and 3
baby on the way
aint no prince
galloped along to save ya today

mr gemini
what you planting in my momma's head
its a decade six times over
your tribe's coming at me instead

circa 1985
mom's got me in her belly
she's getting real high
she don't know why
i'm making her cry
but its all me
the future leader
a beacon of hope for the fringed n the feeder
a future sold-out nostradame-miss
( damn
can you see her ) X 2
lil miss deluded admittedly concluded
eccentricity makes for a celebrititty

but hope comes crashing down
when she finds i don't want no cerulean gowns
no i don't wear no dresses
don't want no tiara for my tresses
frogs and kings for my dank kisses
misses silicon valley to be your missus
tam bram same sham
wham bam thank you
miss culture representator
coordinator curator cute as a fader
now let us rate her
in the grand scheme of things
it's boom boom shakalaka boom
come into my room
i'll show you how its done honey
no mr gemini to save me from my plight
i'm alright in my own company tonight
no mating moves under the moonlight
let's do it clean n do it right
