The Lyrics
Nobody knows where my meter has gone
Rhyming left the same time
Why would I keep writing bad
Others suppose it should rhyme
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme haiku if I wanted it to
Writing my lyrics, keep writing alright
Leaving out words is a crime
Take lyrics seriously
I've got no reason to rhyme
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme nouveau if I wanted to grow
(off beat break)
Rythm and rhyming don't walk hand in hand
They both fight in my head
It is just like I surmised
Rhyming words is now dead
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme emend if I wanted to end
Rhyming left the same time
Why would I keep writing bad
Others suppose it should rhyme
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme haiku if I wanted it to
Writing my lyrics, keep writing alright
Leaving out words is a crime
Take lyrics seriously
I've got no reason to rhyme
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme nouveau if I wanted to grow
(off beat break)
Rythm and rhyming don't walk hand in hand
They both fight in my head
It is just like I surmised
Rhyming words is now dead
They're my lyrics and I'll rhyme if I want to
Rhyme if I want to, rhyme if I want to
Could rhyme emend if I wanted to end
