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...

next in line - completed

That was a quick one. Well, actually I wrote the first verse yesterday evening, so I've not been THAT quick.

 

When I put the pieces together I changed the order of the first two verses. I also made the girl in the now first verse second person, so the verse matches the line "don't you worry little Baby". And I adapted the first chorus accordingly:

 

you have lots of admirers
you can afford to take your pick
secretely I wait for you
to get rid of your current prick 

I'm standing in the row, I'm next in line
you won't keep me waiting, you are being kind
I'll be served in a minute, so I'll be fine
don't you worry little Baby, I'm next in line

 

doin' my Friday shopping

...

 

I'm standing in the row, I'm next in line
they won't keep me waiting, they're all being kind
I'll be served in a minute, so I'll be fine
don't you worry little Baby, I'm next in line

 

The last verse reads:

 

I've lived life to the fullest
I hardly ever missed a trick [I looked that one up]
the writing on the wall says
soon my clock will cease to tick

 

I'm standing in the row, I'm next in line

...

 

Although I first only intended to write what I call an episodical text I've now actually got a logical order:


finding and winning a girl

doing family chores

dying

 

A whole life described in twelve lines of text ;-)
