Wrote a couple songs in my day... one of them was recorded. Gotta love it. Here they are, though the melodies are kinda unusual so it might as well bea poem, huh.
This one is making fun of a letter that a friend of mine found on ZU about 'reforming your goth child'. Yeah, I'm catholic and all that... interesting stuff. ^_^
St. Mary's Church
St. Mary's Church,
you tell me that I'm goth
All because I love the stuff
that you make racial slurs about and
-
I wear rock 'n' roll t-shirts
MR
and I use the internet
MR
I watch cable on TV
A A A A
and take my dog Bailey to the vet
MR
Don't get me wrong, now, man
MR
I love God, no matter what they say
MR
it may be a bit confusing
A A A A
but modern prophets want it that way!
-
MR
I love that old time rock and roll
MR
black, white, yellow, red don't matter to me
MR
they say that Buddhism is satanic
A A A A
even Hinduism's pretty cool
Just because it's not 'christian'
doesn't mean it can't be!
-
I wear rock 'n' roll t-shirts
MR
and I use the internet
MR
I watch cable on TV
A A A A
and take my dog Bailey to the vet
MR
Don't get me wrong, now, man
MR
I love God, no matter what they say
MR
it may be a bit confusing
A A A A
but modern prophets want it that way!
-
MR
Just because I'm bored, I'm not goth
MR
my lack of sleep is coincidental!
MR
If I want to be alone,
MR
I probably want to read
it's kinda hard to do in public
with people smoking their weed!
(fade)
(beginning again)
Now you know-o my story
And how I love all so yeah
You understand that some people are
Ignorant all walks of life
fades out

[music stops, all yell:]
A DRUG ADDICT WITH A BRAIN-OF-GLUE!
[music returns, drummer and guitarist sing title in back-ground]

In the chariot of the-color-of-you

Destaeno
Call it luck, fate, or even destiny
All the things that were brought to me
Maybe a plan or scheme or flatout CHI!
Whatever it is, it's pretty sweet to me!!
First of all, there's Joseph above
Now gloomy days are really his love
Some sort of link just gave it a shove,
and that link was-!
And then the day came with sunshine and fun
A guy with drugs and a barrel and a gun
He scarred us good but never won
Bring it again, cuz the family's back in town! (pronounced 'ton')
It was the Destaeno!
Was it Destiny?
It is the destaeno
I'm sure it's meant for me!
It'll be the Destaeno!
Because love wins every time
If time was changed just a little bit,
Man, I'd be like 'This is a bunch of Smit!'
Love would die, I would cry,
and we'd all be(all be)dead in(dead in)side!
Then came Paul on his big ol' horse
He helped us build the vict'ry force
Along came Logan and the swordsman,
They both rock, like John and Jackie Chan!
All along there was Lord Lemon,
he walked us through to be Jamacian Man!
It's a frog!!

Mood Swing
Genre: Swing/Rock
You've caught me
in the middle of a moodswing
From mad to sad
to happy
Ain't life grande?
Well it's gotta be enough
to move me!
_________________________
What's with the loud music?!
It hurts my brain
my lungs are cringing,
my ears in pain
Make it go away,
I wanna rest!
to other's fun,
I do detest.
Crabby people like to yell at me,
And that's just not my cup o' tea.
__________________________
No matter the events
going on in your life
YOU can make em better
Just ask local wise man... *high voice* Mr.... Clark.... [<inside joke]
_____________________________________
I don't even need
to CARE anymore!
I wanna take your head
and BASH THE FLOOR
You're acting older than you are
and calling me a fag
to the Brody bunch...
eat the
Rebel's Flag! GOTTA COOL OFF, WHY AM I SO MAD?!
SO MANY QUESTIONS it hurts my head.
_________________________________
Try to stay optimistic
at all times
It'll make life easier
than making rhymes
_________________________________
Hey look at this, friend,
Life's all right
Don't be angry,
Just take flight.
to all emos,
fly a kite...
When you're nuetral, you're no fun!!
See me run from a hot dog bun!!!
____________________________
Never be boring,
Never be bland.
And never let a jock
Stick your head in the sand!
________________________
Flippy the Fish, aw man he's dead
Just like my ant, hi name was Fred
Tip your hats like men of coal,
And just God bless his little soul!!
to animal freaks,
don't kill my mole
When people are always sad and alone,
They're head will start to grey and drone
___________________________________
Constantly conquer fears
no matter what they be.
One more thing to do,
Hey you, just run, be free!

WAHOO! The song was a success!!
Funny, I pictured a fiery mess.
Have a good day all,
enjoy a flight
to all those listening...
HAVE A GOOD NIGHT!

-Me
Searching for What
I've walked
this road
too far
I've searched
for you
too long
but I don't even know
what I'm searching for
-------------------------
^chorus
I've been searching for
what seems a thousand years
I've searched the skies and the seas
but I don't even know
what I'm searching for
CHORUS
I've left for the journey
it seems like it's been
an eternity
My hearts been set
on searching for what
CHORUS
Before I left they said
'Please don't go'
They asked what I
was going for
I said I do not know
CHORUS
That day my heart and soul were set
on searching for who knows what
CHORUS
I still haven't found what I'm looking for
I guess it does teach you one thing
that even if you never find it,
it keeps you going to the end
fades out with chorus
End
Half in Too
Where were you?
I was there
and you were too
I'm lost in my
subconcious reality
I'm split in two
like a shoe or you
Flying new in thoughts askew
For those who care,
I'm in too
chorus^
Half-n-Half
Dark and Black
Take Me Down
And Put me Back
Severed in half
Pulled in two
Sew me back
and put me through
CHORUS
Take your share,
put 'er there,
cuz I'm half in too
(guitar solo)
I'm half in too....
You.
End
Paranormal Speed Limit
I was a man with one arm, yeah!
I said Kraven,
don't take the pain no more
And then Kraven said Let's Go!
Kraven blared John are you okay?
John then yelled YEAH LET'S GO!
And then the green man with the pointy hat said
You're out of control!
And then the big light from above said
Watch out, you're in a paranormal speed limit!
And then I flew so high (oh so high)
And then I went faster and Faster and FASTER AND FASTER AND FASTER AND
SLoWer... and slower... and slower...
and then I went back to my normal pace
Then my limit of creation said You're on a race!
chorus
solos
I used to have one arm and now I have none
My red precious steed is gone, and so is my paranormal speed limit
End
Phenda
You Just Broke
My Phenda Benda
I just rocked out
and I seek some satisfaction
You've rocked out
on they're sweet guitars
and turned up your prettiful amps
but have oyu rocked as hard
as Gawd Above
and made the zombies live?!
It's Fender!
(the music gods)
It's Fender!
(they phreak out phrauds)
It's Fender!
(you better listen to me!)
It's Fender,
yeah,
It's Fender
(repeat a bunch, and end)
End
My Battle With the Devil
No guns,
no swords
Just my mental bliss
I hate to say it
But you strike and I miss
The whole world is against me
Only a few have grown
but
My battle with the devil's gonna
keep
you
down
The big guy and me
are running around
fighting the devil for mental ground
yeah, and
it's a battle well fought
when you are being fought against?!
Rip out my mind
and the rapper's heart
because only those who believe
can be a part
Solo
Chorus
Bridge

3 RELIGION REFERENCES?! I think I tricked myself when writing some of this stuff...
-Linkie
P.S. These are some of my days a week or two after Mallory What's-Her-Face, when, for some reason, I wrote really corny/emo stuff. Dunno why. Here it is, a 9-minute-song and a 1-minute-one
Stick It To Em
The feeling
of one's faithfulness
Is tested
by a ruthless mess
and it is Your Job
to clean it up
cause no one else is there for you on this day!
You see pandas
You see a Mendaz!
You look around to
Find someone near you
And they don't know what they are
They've stolen someone's car |and they|
look at you
like you're a fool
to be standin around at this time
you stare on back
to see his woolen stack
of memories lost |you're a fool|
to think
that your life is pink
cause not everything's perfect a- ROUND
[break into the song]
The feeling
of one's faithfulness
Is tested
by a ruthless mess
and it is Your Job
to clean it up
you now feel
like you've gone all bad
you feel
like you're always sad
you want to sprucen up
but SOMETHING inSIDE you is SAYIN "nup!"
The feeling
of one's faithfulness
Is tested
by a ruthless mess
and it is Your Job
to clean it up
|yeah!| The feeling
of one's faithfulness
Is tested
by a ruthless mess
and it is Your Job
to clean it up
You're sitting
in the clutches
of the one thing you standin' up Against
you WANT to
go and kick some
li-i-i-i-ittle red brie-e-e-e-e-ick

handed to you, here
|and you| want some revenge
YOU GOT TO
Go and!
Stick It To Them!

[guitar solo]
The feeling
of one's faithfulness
Is tested
by a ruthless mess
and it is Your Job
to clean it up
you've just been lured and
trapped and cured and
broken of your, perfect ways
you have been broken

You got to stand up now
For yourself, plow

When the enemy makes me a sap

Stick it to them!
I'm gonna stick it to them now!!!!
Take it!
[outro]
The End.
I Just Wanna Be a Loser
I just wanna be a loser
I really don't give a crap
I just wanna be a baby
You can call me what you want
I don't want to try hard
To get respect from a lard
And if you think it'll hurt my feelings,
Churn my dreelings,
Cut my creelings,
you got another thing comin'!
You know what?
I just wanna be a loser, if that's what it takes.
I just wanna be a loser, if that's what it makes!
I just wanna be a loser, so go dig a few lakes
Cause I really don't care
[solo]
Go take a look at your twisted mind
I'll help you out, just get in line
Don't worry at all, don't gotta be kind
Cause deep down, buddy, you're a hopeless cause!
And you know what?
I just wanna be a loser, if that's what it takes.
I just wanna be a loser, if that's what it makes!
I just wanna be a loser, so go dig a few lakes
Cause I really don't care
