(i wanna write) a Simple Song Lyrics by A Slight Threat

Song Book! (or: 100 Alltime Favorites)

2024

[Intro]
(I don't even remember how to play this song)
[Verse 1]
I refuse to sleep tonight, I had to be awake to write
I dread the rising sun, I'll realize that the song's messed up
I have you next to me... metaphorically
It's far too hard to sing about the thing I want to sing
[Chorus]
I want a simple song that's diatonic
Something that reminds me of you, but a bit more electronic
Something else to do besides think about you
I wanna write a simple song
[Verse 2]
You're more than just a word, you're kind of a bit of a nerd
I think you're pretty cool though, I think I'm in love with you, sorry
If nothing else to sing, I'll make the chords more interesting
Then change the key a bit and simply do the chorus again
[Chorus]
I want a simple song that's diatonic
Something that reminds me of you, but a bit more electronic
Something else to do besides think about you
I wanna write a simple song
[Bridge]
It's a complex song, it's so chromatic
I'll refrain from rambling because you wouldn't understand it
Not that I even could, my brain is turning into static
And in the bits of noise, you see my heart jumping around
[Chorus]
I want a simple song that's diatonic
Something that reminds me of you, but a bit more electronic
Something else to do besides think about you
I wanna write a simple song
