 Love Letter Fantasy
audio snippet
It's a red hot love letter
Burning up my hand.
My special red hot love letter
From my sexy man.
He sent a red hot love letter
Written exclusively
My very own red hot love letter
Posted just for me.
Mmmmm, I'm all a-sizzle
Steaming with desire!
Ooh, he truly knows the way to
Fan this lady's fire.
It's my red hot love letter
Only for my eyes.
My sensual red hot love letter
By my favourite guy.
I love my red hot love letter
Lots of secrets there
My only red hot love letter
Just for me, I swear.
Mmmmm, I'm all a-sizzle
Still steaming with desire!
Ooh, he really knows the way to
Fan this lady's fire.
My serious red hot love letter
Tearing at my soul.
A wondrous red hot love letter
Never gonna let it go.
My only red hot love letter
Never gonna let it go . . .
My sister's red hot love letter
Wish I didn't have to let it go. ;)

Blueberry Grunt
( Recipe follows)
Feeling low, feeling blue?
Don't know what you're gonna do?
Feeling dull, in a funk?
Well make yourself
Some blueberry grunt!
Lousy day, rotten luck,
Almost run down by a truck?
Feeling just a little punk?
Just make some hot blueberry grunt!
Grunt, grunt,
Gooey, sticky, yummy, grunt.
Mmm! Eww! Just the thing
when you're feeling blue.
Broken leg? Broken arm?
Did you loose your lucky charm?
Brother lock you in a trunk?
Have some more blueberry grunt!
Lose your job? Can't find work? Someone treats you like a jerk?
Have to lead life like a monk?
Try some more blueberry grunt!
Grunt, grunt,
Gooey, sticky, yummy, grunt.
Mmm! Eww! Just the thing
when you're feeling blue!
