Flytrap Flower

about

Inspired by a photo of the pet flytrap of Jon Mohr of Ska N Bones (and which I used in the cover art for the single).

lyrics

So many plants in the garden
So many kinds in the wild
There’s never been one quite like you
You’re a special kind of child
A rose is very pretty
An orchid’s very cool
You did something different
You sent this boy to school
Flytrap flower
Rising up in my eyes
I know your secret
And now I’m wise
Flytrap flower
Rising up to the skies
I’m the fly of the hour
Would you steal my power?
So many kinds of flower
So many types in the world
I've never known one quite like you
You’re a special kind of girl
Flytrap flower
Rising up in my eyes
I know your secret
And now I’m wise
You say you desire me
And I’m sure that that’s true
But it’s more you require me
As a source of food
Don’t compare me to an insect
I demand some basic respect
Flytrap flower
Flytrap flower
Flower -- ahhhhhh
Flytrap flower
Flytrap flower
Flower -ahhhhh.

I find creating music addictive -- I use virtual and hardware synths, drum machines, production tools and sometimes guitar. Though for truly stellar guitar work I turn to Mark Abbruzzese and Eric Endo. ... more
