A bit of lyric help from the Ladies?? - 2008/02/15 01:08 I blogged this already, but maybe somebody will read this instead.



The song is about a girl who does exactly what she wants. She might be spoiled from an early age, or have been sheltered and finds herself free. I see her as about 20-22. I have a little sister in that age range, but she's too well-behaved to give me much inspiration.

What would you do if you could do anything you want?

It's going to be a blues-rock thing, so a little salty is cool...but I don't want to go too sexy. It wouldn't work asking for 'lines' so I'm just asking for insight into the mind of a free-spirited woman.

Graci.

Thanks Sister Savage for a cool one. I ought to be able to use the thought.

Probably no help at all but.. - 2008/02/16 12:41 She wouldn't take his flier
She had a life on course
It's not that she's above the other girls, they only know what they're taught
She wouldn't take no handouts
And queueing aint her style
She's got a pretty plantation, she's gonna go the whole mile
Such a pretty behind
To sit around on all day
Such a pretty pretty mugshot baby
You know what your mother would say...
Just when you think they're all bringing you down
Can you think of the last time you made yourself proud?

No tap on the shoulder
No superstar at first sight
A shot at what she was surely made for only showed up in red light
She got a little bit older
She got a little bit fat
She settled down with a bottle of vodka and opened up a new cat
Such a pretty behind
To sit around on all day
Such a pretty pretty mugshot baby
You know what your mother would say...
Just when you think they're all bringing you down
Can you think of the last time you made yourself proud?
Can you think of the last time you made yourself proud?

But...gah! I wrote it awhile ago and have been stuck on a vocal melody for the chorus forever so I thought it might be an idea to pass it on. Or maybe I could use it for this project...ahh, dunno.
