From the recording So Much Love
I made this song up when I was busking on University Avenue in Palo Alto. I developed the lyrics with Gabe Dominguez from SHAKE YOUR PEACE! while we were living in a foreclosed house in the Mission district of San Francisco.
Lyrics
My love is like a seahorse…tiny but compelling
So compelling you wanna put it on your shower curtain
And my love is so valuable they tried to trade it on the stock market
But I shut ‘em down from all my flirtin yeah I did
‘Cause I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love, but I don’t know what to do with it
I’ve got so much love well I guess I better share it with the world
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
My love is like a goalie using soccer gloves to deflect balls of hate
My love is like a bullfrog that’s croaking in the night to attract a mate
‘Cause I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love, but I don’t know what to do with it
I’ve got so much love well I guess I better share it with the world
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
Got more love than all the fish in the sea and I got more love than all the monkeys in the trees
Got more love than a chicken lays eggs and I got more love than a millipedes got legs
Got more love than the congress got bribes got more love than a mormon’s got wives
Got more love than Jesus got disciples and I got more love than the NRA’s got rifles
Got more love than the Buddha or Allah and I got more love than the Jews love challah
Got more love than a garden’s got soil and I got more love than the Saudis got oil!
I got so much love
I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love, but I don’t know what to do with it
I’ve got so much love well I guess I better share it with the world
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
My love is like an oyster; it’s tough to crack, but inside it’s slimy and gooey and it’s also considered a delicacy
And my love is like a taco; it’s full of seasoned meat and it’s tasty and oh so juicy
‘Cause I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love
I’ve got so much love, but I don’t know what to do with it
I’ve got so much love well I guess I better share it with the world
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
La da da da, da di da di da da dum
I’ve got so much love, but I don’t know what to do with it
I’ve got so much love well I guess I better share it with the world
