SONG: MY CHOCOLATE GIRL


You smeared chocolate on your face
Chunks of Couverture in your hair
Your fudge-smudged dress is a disgrace
Whoa! You’ve stuffed chocolate bars down there

You’re my sweet world
My chocolate girl

You’ve crammed cocoa-butter up your nose
Devil’s food cookies in your ears
Melted choc-blocks between your toes
You’re driving me to laughing tears

My head’s a swirl
My chocolate girl

You’ve crumbled chock-chips in my guitar
Crushed brownies in my pockets
My friends mumble you’ve gone too far
But I hope you never stop it

Oh give me more
My chocolate girl
My head’s a swirl
My chocolate girl
You’re my sweet world
My chocolate girl
