I Need Amoeba

A song I wrote when I was about 19 years old. I never thought it was good enough to record. Maybe I was wrong!

I float around in a pool of slime
I can’t be seen with the naked ey
You know it’s gonna be lotsa fun
To munch out on a bacterium!

I need amoeba
I need the simple kind of life
I need amoeba
I need a microscopic wife

Good mitosis is like an orgasm
I’m shootin’ around my protoplasm
You know I’d love to make love to you
but I’ll have my kids by splittin’ in two

In need amoeba…

And you know I never wanted to be bigger than I one-celled being

I love that lady and so I hope
That she’s checkin’ me out with her microscope
I hope I don’t look like such a clod
Reachin’ out with my pseudopod

I need Amoeba…
