A fun little song about the made-up languages between siblings. • From Wikipedia: An idioglossia is an idiosyncratic language invented and spoken by only one person or very few people. Most often, idioglossia refers to the 'private languages' of young children, especially twins, the latter being ... commonly referred to as twin talk or twin speech. • I don't know that there are any songs about this yet, so I thought I'd write one. • ---------- • Download: https://ponyphonic.bandcamp.com/track... • ---------- • Lyrics: • Fritzy was the TV, sorta work and sorta doesn't • Like the snowy out the window was the fuzzy on the screen • And snorey-borey were the little toys upon the floory • And the neighbor kids were always kinda mean • So criss-cross sat and chitter-chat, our days were spent conversy • Interspersy little words our very own till we'd forget • Just where the English end and where our little words beginned • And ennui aid and time abet et ceter-eter-ret-set-set-set • We take a syllable, the funnier the better • And we say it till we make it be a word • Lexicon of beg and borrow • Idioglossary are, oh • Isn't it the bestest thing you've ever ever heard • Understood by no one but • The two of us and you know what • I mean when all I'm saying is a-la-a-wah-a-oh • It's something magical, absurd, and so • Much fun, this thing that we both know • So we made a language and we meant to keep it secret • But the words were so hilarious we had to share them all • We put it alphabetic and we gave 'em definitions • And we wrote 'em out in crayon on the wall • Well, Momma didn't really take a liking to the mural • Truly, artistry is never understood within its day • But maybe, in the end, we like it better as an enigmatic • Game that only we can play, it's siblinguistic anyway • ------- • Written and performed by Dane Larson
