My Mean Monster

Yet another rare moment where I share a song I've written with the "public."

But I REALLY REALLY REALLY like this one. It's  a story about a discussion that others have had with me. It's called My Mean Monster.  And basically, it's a story about the 'monster' that comes out in girls when we feel threatened. It's like when a girl sees another girl that's cuter or has a better personality or whatever, and says to herself, "I'm gonna be the green monster of envy and manipulate a situation so I can destroy her and make everyone think I'm better than her." But in the light of reality, the monster and everyone she touches ultimately loses.

Here are the lyrics:

That gallon of sugar

would sure come in handy

her milk mustache is bleeding again

She's got a flair for the dramatic,

your damsel in distress

your self professed sugar pie

devil in a blue dress

See. The monster you made

is fun in the shade

And the price that we pay

won't kill us today.

Is that okay?

She's mean to everyone but you

your fairy tale come true

Paper dolls are fun to cut

unless they're cutting you

See. The monster you made

is fun in the shade

And the price that we pay

won't kill us today.

Is that okay?

Take my monster away

say goodbye to today

The price I must pay

kills me everyday

So take her

away
