*Song- Skinny Pretty Mormon Girl

Written Sometime between 2018 and 2020

Vibe: Dance Punk Synth Rock

Lyrics by Morning Glories Drummer


Verse 1-

-To say freedom of problems matters is a total lie, to say it’s all about personality is a funny joke

-Appearance is single hood, packaging reigns king, strong jaw line lean and earn the right degree

-Red flags turn green if security you can buy, made me learn prosperity is the religion of most

-White collar, white race, nice car, the price of your parents approval, let’s raise a toast


Chorus-

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl please look at me

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl money is key

-Skinny Pretty Mormon Girl why stuck up like this

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl maybe just a kiss


Verse 2-

-Those before me I saw it unfold how preachers told, service tour, college degree, fall in love, good job, buy a home

-That standard doesn’t work with a bottle neck mind to stress, early release, psychosis, recovery, fought for a degree

-Worked hard to be blessed, became a wreck right out of school, meet professional me

-White collar failure, menial jobs keep the stress at bay, became depressed, and fell again into psychotic abyss

-Mind pills add pounds, but keep chemical demons away, I thought upper middle

class to wealth was a sign of the chosen way


Chorus-

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl please look at me

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl money is key

-Skinny Pretty Mormon Girl why stuck up like this

-Skinny pretty Mormon girl maybe just a kiss


Bridge-

-Grow so tired when they say status doesn’t matter

-I grew up around status served on a golden platter

-So much effort and risk to attain symbols all can see

-So how can they actually tell me status isn’t key

-While these upper class wasps look over me

-Ill form a band, make a plan, and set sail in the scene

Skinny Pretty Mormon Girl they can’t see...


End
