Semiprecious
by Virgo Power
semi, semi, semi
precious
when I was young, I found a stone
it shone so brightly in the sun
was I the fool, to think it gold
I thought I knew what it was worth
but I was left there holding dirt
because it was only
semi, semi, semi
precious
semi, semi, semi
precious
and as a girl
I found a man
he seemed so smart
and seemed to like me
was I the fool
to think him good
thought I knew what I was worth
but I was left there kicking dirt
guess I was only
semi, semi, semi
precious
semi, semi, semi
precious

Liner notes:
SpoilerThe second verse is true but I took a little bit of poetic license/for prosody's sake I wrote "girl" when I was actually 25 (he was 35). So it is not meant to be creepy/pedophiliac!!! FYI!! Drum machine is the built in drum from my Omnichord, that's why it sounds like a cheap 80s/90s Casio.
