Saskia Hamilton Lyrics

I've only ever seen her name on the spine but that's enough. I want to make her mine!
Never heard her voice, never seen her smile, but I'm in love with Saskia Hamilton!

Well, shes a poet just like I want to be!
But her passport alone is great poetry, and I'm in love with saskia Hamilton!

Shes got more assonance than she knows what to do with. I am in love with Saskia Hamilton.
She's got two sibilants no bilabial plosivs.

Saskia Hamilton, Saskia Hamilton, yeah! Right!
Saskia Hamilton, Saskia Hamilton!
Saskia Saskia Saskia Saskia!

Already got a girl, but she sounds real bad. I am in love with Saskia Hamilton.
She's got alliterations and her surname's Dag.
Oh! Saskia Hamilton!

No hard consonents in my girl Saskia!
Every single syllable sounds like Shakespeare! And I'm in love with Saskia!

Gonna live with her and it will be harmonious!
How could it not be when she's that euphonious?
I'm gonna marry her and it'll be idyllic!
And my teacher just told me she's dactylic!

Saskia Hamilton, Saskia Hamilton! Yeah! Right!
Saskia Hamilton, Saskia Hamilton!
Saskia Saskia Saskia Saskia!

(Saskia!
Saskia Saskia Saskia Saskia!
Hamilton!!!)
