as per
my blog, here are becca's full ridiculous lyrics to sex changes and girl anachronism.
girl anastronautism(from "a is for astronaut")
321 blast off !
you can tell
from the stars in the sky
and the cracks in my spaceship
and the dents in my helmet
and the moonshoes that i'm wearing
that i'm not the carefullest of astronauts
you can tell
from the rockets on the floor
and the engines that are breaking
and they keep on breaking more
and my hyperdrive is broken !
but it's just the temperature
and then again
if it were any colder i would disembark
if i were any older i would lose my sparkplug
i don't think that you'd believe me
it's not the way i'm meant to be
it's just the way the exploration made me
and you can tell
from the state of my moon
that they let me go too soon
and the freeze-dried food i ate
came a few light-years too late
and i've got some planets to go to
there i go again
pretending to be nasa
make-believing
that there are craters on the surface
trying to convince you
it was atmospherically on purpose
i am lacking oxygen
this breathing is a plagiarism
i might join your galaxy
but only on a rare occasion
i was ordered out before the mission could begin
behold the void's worst accident
i am the girl anastronautism
and you can tell
by the light in my eyes
and the comets in the skies
and the aliens in the fields
and the rear deflector shields
that i'm not on earth at all
there i go again
pretending that i'll fall
don't call the home base
they've seen it all before
they'll say
just let her crash and burn she'll learn
the oxygen just encourages her
and you can tell
from the full-body spacesuit
and the matching spacey mittens
that you did everything you could
like any decent martian would
and i might be floating but don't touch
i'll start believing i'm immune to gravity and such
don't bring me down
because i'm not done with my mission yet
and you can tell
from the smoke on the screen
that the current state is critical
but it is the space station on mercury
in the time it takes to blast off she can eat all her provisions
please excuse her for the day, it's just the way the orbitation makes her
i don't necessarily believe that i have helmet hair
so i might join your galaxy but only at a supercuts
i was in the twilight zone removed as a caesarian
behold the void's worst accident
I AM THE GIRL ANASTRONAUTISM
fruit changes
dear mr and or mrs shopper
pleased to inform you that your vegetables have been rejected
starting from the time you get this letter
your life will be one never-ending cycle spitting pits out
you'll get your choice of supermarkets
you'll need to peel the skin off (tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)
it might not be so very juicy
there is no money back once you have sunk your teeth into it
today's a very healthy day
the doctors recommend it but what will the grocers say ?
your stomach's feeling pretty hollow
it might be red and pulpy
don't forget you're eating a tomato (a tomato, a tomato)
you'd better go to bread & circus
the fruit will start to ripen in a week or so
so don't go saying your banana's getting spotty
you'll get more than you're asking for if you don't buy organic
today's a very healthy day
and how you'd love to eat a little peach or tangerine
but citrus always gives you heartburn
today be still your acid reflux
take your tums and eat a nice tomato (a tomato, a tomato.)
fruit will be fruit will be fruit will be fruit will be fruit will be fruit will eat fruit with no
warning
veggies are bad, and they will make you sad, or perhaps even mad, so go eat all your fruit, or you'll die by the morning
ohh, they always said that fruit would change you, fruit would change you, fruit would change you, fruit would change you
no second thoughts, lunch time is nearing
you'll never hear the little tempting call of the zucchini
when it screams in chorus with the broccoli
of course I love you but you know it's just the fruit that matters
but I think my vitamin C is fading
it seems to me the food pyramid is quite misleading
don't you know you need more than 5 servings ?
the doctors say that once you get a taste for it you'll keep on eating
but while we happen to be here
why don't you whisper the nutrition facts into my ear ?
you know I'm trying to be healthy -
hurry up and peel me a grape !
you know I like them better than tomatoes (and tomatoes and tomatoes.)
they always said that fruit would change you…
