about

Originally written for a friend's short film project, this song is my tribute to that oft-misused punctuation mark, the apostrophe.

lyrics

They call me Mr. S,
I'm a little possessive,
Oh my dear I must confess,
I'm grammar obsessive.

Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you in front of me,
Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you right in front of me.

I'm a period, I'm a full stop,
I'm not being ironic,
You go down, I'll climb on top,
You and I can get semi-colonic.

Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you down under me,
Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you down under me.

Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you in front of me,
Apostrophe, apostrophe,
I wanna see you right in front of me.
