Georgie Porgie

This is a song that I wrote a couple of days back. Its about a popular nursery rhyme character; Georgie Porgie; and his stepping into teenage, and beyond.
Its written in jest but it also has various little messages associated with it.
Enjoy.


Georgie Porgie

"Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry,
When the boys came out to play,
Georgie Porgie ran away."


Things were so much better when you were small;
No worries; all that you did was sleep, cry, shit and crawl.
Believe me, those days are dead; and there's no more rest;
Look at the world around you Georgie, let your conscience attest.
You've taken a jump, not an envious one; into maturity,
So Georgie, you would be better off opening your eyes to reality.


Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie, kissed the girls and made them cry,
When the boys came out to play, Georgie Porgie ran away.
But Georgie, listen; let me be clear, you did that when you were little, dear.
The same rules don't apply in the big-bad-world up here, 

it's true...

All the morals that you once learnt are just for show;

Let your dreams break one-by-one, and you'll get to know!

There will be strong disbelief; and a plague of frantic blinking;

But surely, reality will conquer your church of wishful thinking.

I know I make it sound sad and dull, but there'll be joyrides too;

But Georgie; if you don't watch your back, your'e seriously gonna be screwed!

Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie, kissed the girls and made them cry,
When the boys came out to play, Georgie Porgie ran away.
But Georgie, listen; let me be clear, you did that when you were little, dear.
The same rules don't apply in the big-bad-world up here, 

it's true...

Georgie! Hey Georgie! Oh Georgie Runaway;
You should learn to let go of things; after you've got what you need!

Georgie! Hey Georgie! Oh Georgie Runaway;

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger; If your'e ready to bleed!!

Georgie Porgie, Puddin' and Pie, kissed the girls and made them cry,
When the boys came out to play, Georgie Porgie ran away.
But Georgie listen; let me be clear, you did that when you were little, dear.

The same rules don't apply in the big-bad-world up here, 

it's true...
