i have an attachment to these margot candy bar things in czechia... used to eat them when i was here in the 90s.
so i planned to write a song based loosely on my love for margot.
i also thought i'd try to make it sound like a beautiful power pop song... like all the material issue songs about girls back in the day...
best laid plans.
you were dressed in blue
i was far from home
too many nights of cheese sandwich
dinner in styrofoam
once you caught my eye
couldn’t get you off my mind
far too soon i was on my way
leaving you far behind
my my my
my margot
my oh my oh my
my my my
my margot
sweet as hilltop pie
like a pilgrim i returned
following the craving call
so much time had passed
you hadn’t changed at all
once i got you back
it was like i’d never gone
you still dressed in blue
me always moving on
my my my
my margot
my oh my oh my
my my my
my margot
sweeter as time goes by
all these deadly appetites
all these miles twixt you and me
all the devils in the details
ingredients of mortality
you are always on my mind... if not my tongue
though we’re always kept apart... by so many seas
i still taste you when i’m hungry... and lonely
you are always in my heart... and arteries
my my my
my margot
my oh my oh my
my my my
my margot
love ya till the day i die
... from too much margot
