Just wrote this, it has an R&B vibe and is very unusual for me, but I quite like how it turned out. I haven't been able to record it yet, but you can hear a simple version with piano and drums, and flute playing the melody, at this link; as in this, here, this whole bit of text has a link. Really.
I see you standing over there with your jeans hung low,
Got the girls all around, trying to show, trying to show,
Your beach boy smile and your hipster shades,
Getting drunk, getting stoned, making up these charades
If a girl, wants you boy, it's because she's a hoar,
But hey, there you go, easy ride, open door,
You'll be playing that girl 'til the game is done,
And next thing you know you found another one
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't want love,
You just want fa-la-la-la-la
[Chorus]
If you thought your wish would come true,
I guess you'll have to keep dreaming,
No matter how many girls that kiss you,
You'll never lose that empty feeling
[Verse]
Now I ain't saying that she's a fake,
But this make-up, it ain't made up, so it's break up you should make,
But don't think that she's stupid cos she knows just who you are,
She's probably just in it til she goes back to the bar
You act so deep just to lure your pray,
You got your bass guitar, but you don't know how to play,
A sketchbook? What a fox, yeah right more like matchbox,
Don't you see, with no degrees, your home will be a box
[Pre-Chorus]
You can't get love,
When your life's fa-la-la-la-la
[Chorus]
If you thought your wish would come true,
I guess you'll have to keep dreaming,
No matter how many girls that kiss you,
You'll never lose that empty feeling
[Rap]
Yeah your head's in the clouds, and you think with your (woah),
Your shirts on the floor but there's nothing to show,
You try to pretend that you've got issues,
But really you're a hypocrite, so come on now and choose
You think you're so smart, but there's nothing in your head,
Cos every day of school you phone in to say "I'm dead",
And one more thing I need to say, you really out to know,
If you ever think I'm coming back, well ***** I'm not your ***
[Chorus]
If you thought your wish would come true,
I guess you'll have to keep dreaming,
No matter how many girls that kiss you,
You'll never lose that empty feeling
