Skirmish: Birthday Songs (@dudachris)
There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

@skirmish, @needscollab @needsmusic Just wrote to the prompt :-)

Has some rough meter but I like the idea!

Lyrics

V I
It was a tight squeeze
But you made it
Really no other way to play it

It was a long haul
But you got through
No pall malls and tequila too

C
Tossin’ cookies in the morning
Broke back afternoon
A bot fly would be better
Crowning can’t begin too soon

V II
Young, Tricked by the love
Fell really quick
Fleeting ecstasy for everlasting sick

Husband Know I love you
While Laboring might think
I’d Like to rip you head off and stuff you down the sink

C
Tossin’ cookies in the morning
Broke back afternoon
A bot fly would be better
Crowning can’t begin too soon

Bridge
My babe, I felt the earth sway
The evening of your birthday
On reflecting was oh so cute
As a teen now
Act like a queen now
I’d love to give you a boot

C
Tossin’ cookies in the morning
Broke back afternoon
A bot fly would be better
Crowning can’t begin too soon
Love you babe, Love you babe,
Every birthday, every day
You're my little bot fly baby :-)

Yup good lyric, a lot more in here than at a quick glance! Nice

It took me til the second chorus to realize what Crowning meant in the context. Ouch, ouch, and ouch. It’s a sweet lyric of deep love and shallow annoyance asking the rhetorical question would you go through giving birth if you knew the baby would eventually be a teenager. Well, yeah, but still.

Wow the lyrics poured out here! I was chasing butterflies. Of the elusive nature! Cool dude.
