Gregor Samsa - Momus

I’ve got a friend who’s turned into a cockroach

I’m his only friend who’s stuck around

All his other friends are calling Gregor vermin

I see the silver in the cloud

Come here dear lovely Gregor Samsa

I’ll stay near whatever you are

You turned into a cockroach

That doesn’t disgust me

What kind of friend would that freak out?

Come rain or shine, we will still be besties

Don’t let the haters infest you with doubt

Come here dear lovely Gregor Samsa

I’ll stay near whatever you are

We used to double-date and I was always wingman

I ended up with the ugliest girl

But now you’re an insect I get the pretty one

You’ve got the wings, I’m going up in the world

Come here dear lovely Gregor Samsa

I’ll stay near whatever you are

Let’s settle on a nettle, gobble at a dock leaf

Scuttle on a ceiling or nibble a cloth

Come here dear lovely Gregor Samsa

I’ll stay near whatever you are

We are two insects, tiny little ponies

I took the plunge to double the fun

And in my opinion your other friends are phonies

Like your family they’ve let you down

Come here dear lovely Gregor Samsa

I’ll stay near whatever you are
