Dedicated to someone whom this song will outlast.

lyrics

Well I had a good time Sweetheart, that's for sure
Well I wanna thank you for all your trouble
But if you lose my number now I won't complain
'Cause you're my Avocado Baby -- only only good for one day
'Cause you're my Sushi Baby -- only only good for one day

Well we had a good run Pumpkin, that's for sure
Well I wanna thank you for all your hustle
But tomorrow I'll be 500 miles away
'Cause you're my Faux Fur Baby -- nice and soft but not worth a dime
'Cause you're my MTV Baby -- oh so noisy and not worth my time

Well I had a good laugh Dollface, that's for sure
Well I wanna thank that extra pitcher
But you can stalk me online or at the show
Yeah you can call and text and call I won't be home
'Cause I think I do it better on my own
You're my New High Heels Baby -- only fun for one day
You're my Sushi Baby -- only only fresh for one day
You're my Avocado Baby, my Avocado Baby
Only good for one thing

Marian Call Alaska

Marian Call has things to say. She sounds a little like Ingrid Michaelson meets They Might Be Giants & Regina Spektor for bourbon & laughs, which sounds improbable, but give it a try. She hails from Alaska and tours North America and Europe, and she lives on Twitter. Her songs are quirky, sharp, surprising confections in every genre full of rich dark carmelized sugar, savor, & spice. ... more
