Onomato Pia

(album: A Steady Drip, Drip, Drip - 2020)

Onomato Pia came from Rome, had a head of angel hair
Couldn't speak a word of English, no one cared
Onomatopoeia flowed out everywhere
Pia had a real communication flair

Every little sigh was oh so epic
Every little gasp for air
Every little yawn a yawn beyond compare
Onomato Pia's gift was oh so rare
Pia had a real communication flair

'Mato Pia from Roma, 'Mato Pia from Rome
Had a head of angelic, angelic hair
Not a word of English, no one, nobody cared
Onomatopoeia flowed from, from everywhere
Onomatopoeia flowed from, from everywhere

Pia had a real communication flair
Pia had a real communication flair

Way back in Rome, she wowed them as well, not
One word Italian, she cast her spell with
Oohs and ahs, pregnant pause
Oohs and ahs, pregnant pause
Oohs and ahs, pregnant pause
Oohs and ahs, pregnant pause

Learning disorder or fantastic skill
I lean quite heavy on skill
I am not a doctor, but to these ol' ears
She could make the David statue shed real tears

Onomato Pia came from Rome, had a head of angel hair
Couldn't speak a word of English, no one cared
Onomatopoeia flowed out everywhere
Pia had a real communication flair
Pia had a real communication flair

'Mato Pia from Roma, 'Mato Pia from Rome
Had a head of angelic, angelic hair
Not a word of English, no one, nobody cared
Onomatopoeia flowed from, from everywhere
Onomatopoeia flowed from, from everywhere
Onomatopoeia flowed from, from everywhere
