Okay, let’s write some simple song lyrics about writing an article. Here are a few options, ranging from basic to slightly more descriptive.
Option 1: The Basics (Simple & Repetitive)
(Verse 1)
I gotta write an article,
Gotta get it done.
I gotta write an article,
‘Til the rising sun.
(Chorus)
Words and sentences,
Paragraphs too.
Writing an article,
Just for you.
(Verse 2)
Research and ideas,
Coming to my head.
Research and ideas,
Spreading out instead.
(Chorus)
Words and sentences,
Paragraphs too.
Writing an article,
Just for you.
(Bridge)
Type, type, typing away,
Hoping it’s okay.
Type, type, typing away,
All through the day.
(Chorus)
Words and sentences,
Paragraphs too.
Writing an article,
Just for you.
Option 2: A Little More Detail
(Verse 1)
Got a topic in my mind,
Gotta make it clear.
Gotta find the perfect words,
To banish all the fear.
(Chorus)
Article writing, it’s a task,
But I’ll give it all I have.
From start to finish, I will ask,
Is this the best I can craft?
(Verse 2)
Facts and figures, side by side,
Building up my case.
Making sure the truth is told,
At a steady pace.
(Chorus)
Article writing, it’s a task,
But I’ll give it all I have.
From start to finish, I will ask,
Is this the best I can craft?
(Bridge)
Editing and proofreading,
Making it shine bright.
Polishing the words I use,
To make everything right.
(Chorus)
Article writing, it’s a task,
But I’ll give it all I have.
From start to finish, I will ask,
Is this the best I can craft?
Option 3: A Bit More Emotional/Relatable
(Verse 1)
Blank page staring back at me,
Writer’s block is real.
Gotta find the inspiration,
How do I even feel?
(Chorus)
Article blues, got me down,
But I gotta push on through.
Find the story, wear the crown,
And make the words ring true.
(Verse 2)
Coffee brewing, late at night,
Trying to concentrate.
Hoping that the words will flow,
Before it gets too late.
(Chorus)
Article blues, got me down,
But I gotta push on through.
Find the story, wear the crown,
And make the words ring true.
(Bridge)
Finally finished, hit send,
A sigh of sweet relief.
Hoping that it makes a change,
And eases all the grief.
(Chorus)
Article blues, gone away,
‘Cause I pushed on through.
Told the story, saved the day,
And made the words ring true.
Key things to consider when making it your own:
- Target Audience: Who are you writing this song for? (Other writers? People who need to write articles? Just for fun?)
- Genre: Is it a pop song? A folk song? A rock song? The music will influence the rhythm and rhyme.
- Specifics: What specifically about writing articles do you want to highlight? The research? The editing? The struggle? The satisfaction?
- Rhyme Scheme: Decide on a rhyme scheme (AABB, ABAB, etc.) and stick to it.
- Chorus: Make the chorus catchy and memorable.
- Simplicity: Keep the language simple and easy to understand.
To make it even better, tell me:
- What’s the overall feeling you want to convey? (Frustration, humor, encouragement, etc.)
- What’s one specific aspect of article writing you want to focus on?
Then I can tailor the lyrics even more!
