I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...
A quick one. I found "clime" (for region) in my Penguin Rhyming Dictionary and had to look it up. And I scrapped the line "'bout how much it would pay to wait" because I got doubts if it would be interpreted like I meant it to (act as waiter/waitress). The song is supposed to begin with the chorus, a bridge is still missing:
girl you're so sophisticated
you make life so complicated
I don't have the slightest clue
as to how making love to you
when I asked you for a dance
you started talking 'bout romance
the hist'ry of romantic love
courtship in medieval times
customs of the diff'rent climes
I really didn't stand a chance
girl you're so sophisticated
...
when I suggested to dine out
you began to think aloud
'bout poverty in the third world
about what food the Romans ate
what had been served on Caesar's plate
- I began to get my doubts
girl you're so sophisticated
...
