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...
I'm writing for two young ladies at the moment, Katharina and Yasmin, both with a decidedly commercial focus. The outcome is undecided, of course: will they accept or reject my lyrics, will they eventually produce the songs, will the songs be published?...
Post lesenThe stuff that I write myself comes with a 'creative commons licence'. That means, I give it away for free as long as it is not used commercially. At the moment, I am co-writing lyrics with Sonya from Hot Mama. At the same time I'm writing for a professional...

Post lesenI rewrote the lot and it differs a lot, maybe I can use parts of the planned nonsense-lyrics in some other context. You can find the complete lyrics on my home page. "Diogenes" begins: I live in a barrel prefer the simple life your corrupt society's no...
Post lesenI put down some lines of text the other day with the intention of writing some nonsense song, a funny and weird song that would be open for different interpretations - or none at all. The memory of "I am the walrus" popped up somewhere in the back of...
Post lesenI'll make the laconic verse - "a cleaner wipes the kitchen clean..." - the last one, serving as an outro, and insert an additional verse: years of anger under lids burst in a killing spree staying together for the kids who are the casualties And, since...
Post lesenI had written, yet not quite finished, three verses. a pool of blood on the kitchen floor tells a bitter tale a family that now is no more a home that is for sale a row that had gone out of hand rage suppressed too long caused a normal fam'ly's end ???...
