Sonnet 617 - Tuesday 13 May 2008

Get your top off, get your top off honey

If u can’t stand the heat get outa the stitchin’

Just like me, they long to be clothing-free

Summertime, and it’s easy undressin’

I just want your extra time and your skin

I can see clearly now, your clothes have gone

My baby don’t care for clothes. I’m wishin’

On a starkers, because, fatty bum bum

I can’t wait till 9pm till I come

Bend me shape me, hit me once more baby

Cos when you’re smilin’ the sun comes shinin’

Through the rain, though my screams are tossed and blown

But then I should be so lucky, lucky

You and your clothes will keep on keepin’ on

Author's Note

Antonionioni
I'm sorry, this is an abomination against literature, good taste, and pop music (and even well-known sayings). Mea culpa.
