In the musical world, I call myself 'Loops'. I'm working on my first alblum, called 'First-World Problems', which consists of these musical numbers:
Teenage Band Guy
Let’s Play Instead
Made In China
People Power
Fault?
Keeping Cacti Alive
Do Something
Sidewalk Petals
Making Dogs Happy
Piano Practice
I'm looking for inspiration, support, artists, recommendations, tips, and whatever else!
:)
SHIT I WANNA LISTEN/HELP YOU WITH THIS
Can I?
YES MA'AM/SIR/WHATEVER
I'm going to release whatever lyrics I have first. Then I'll video myself singing it and put it here. Then for the sound…unfortunately I will have to make do with computer software, sound effects, and my friend's drum set. Lol.
Here is "Teenage Band Guy" and "Let's Go Play" atm. In their earliest stages of revision. I'm definitely going to revise it all sometime.
teenage band guy
verse 1
First I catch you listening to dubstep
Then the next day it’s clint eastwood
Not to be rude or anything
But I don’t think that the gorillaz are that good
verse 2
Yes
I have knowledge in bands
I looked them all up last night just to talk about them with you
pre-chorus
I spent 2 hours of my useful time
Being around you, listening to you,
I spent 2 hours of lending you dimes
So I could stay with you
chorus
Not quite a man
But got peacock blue hair
You look like you belong in a teenage band
Icy fair skin
But a warm, creased hand
Yeah you look like you belong in a teenage band
verse 3
Always got the iPad and the airpods
The perfect mix of suburban and urban
Making paper stars and drawing dinosaurs
Just like the time you faked drinking bourburn
verse 4
No
I don’t really like math, or geometry dash,
But I’m willing to give it a try just for you
pre-chorus
I try to not waste my time
Because to some loving is wartime
I try not waste my time
But I wanna be with you full-time
chorus
Loud and laughing and bold
Your existence is a dare
You look like you belong in a teenage band
Bright gray-blue eyes
You make me wanna stare
Yeah you look like you belong in a teenage band
bridge
Don’t know what the heck all these are
But I know they’re for you
Don’t remember making these valentine cards
But here - they’re for you
Don’t know what the hell all these are
But I sent them directly to you
Couldn’t put together all the shards
But I’ll still give them all to you
(Don’t know, but I know, don’t know, but I know
Green lunchroom hustle and a rock band vibe, oh
Don’t know, but I know, don’t know, but I know
Aliens and science and lyrics and blue hair)
chorus
You love to drink Kool-Aid
And you love to care
You look like you belong in a teenage band
Still just a kid
But dang you’ve got some flair
Yeah you look like you belong in a teenage band
and here's let's play instead:
intro
Stop stop stop stop stop no I’d rather sing
Stop stop stop stop stop no I’d rather drink…
chorus
Chocolate milk and applesauce
I’m just a kid that’s funny!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
Legos minecraft and roblox
I’m just a kid that’s running!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
verse 1
I don’t need to hear about the colleges and jobs I need
The very thought of adult life is bringing me to knees
What is this sophisticated that everyone has to be
I just want to play outside, is that so bad for me?
verse 2
What is this talk of majors? I major in climbing trees
I’d rather be in a tent than getting a college degree
My goldfish and my smoothie, I got everything why don’t you see
This is all I’ll ever really want - what? Honestly
pre-chorus
Can you please stop stop stop no, I’d rather sing
Stop stop stop stop stop no, I’d rather drink…
chorus
Lemonade and capri suns
I’m just a kid who’s happy!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
Rain boots, green grass, dixie cups
I’m just a kid who’s laughing!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
bridge
I’m gonna go climb this tree
My friends can come follow me
My future will be left on the ground…but if I climb down to it then…
I’ll have to dig a hole
In it I’ll put my soul
I’ll work in an office of ballpoint pens
No, I’m gonna go climb this tree
My friends can come follow me
My future will be left on the ground
No!
chorus
Swinging sets and monkey bars
I’m just a kid that’s jumping!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
Adventure, T.V, climbing trees
I’m just a kid who’s skipping!
I’ve got my gang
I’ve got my game
And we’re gonna go play
WOAH
HOLY GOD I LOVE THIS
i can help with instrumentals! i play cello, piano, ukulele, and i'm learning guitar.
Yes you can! If you know the band AJR, I'm doing something based off of them - a mix of electronic, organic, opera, mild, or whatever kind of sounds I can get. I can't figure the kind of chords I want for "Let's Play Instead" - it's a childish song but it has a meaning of really, really not wanting to grow up and a fear of the adult world.
Yes okay i can do that i love ajr
gimme a day or two to get some ideas!
ajr fam. lol.
there's no rush, thanks so much for helping!
Wow sounds amazing!!
