A Song About A Song Lyrics by ​dodie

2011

[Verse 1]
I'm a musical girl, and I like to play
But sometimes things don't quite go my way
And I'm not quite sure what to say
(I could give you some advice!)
[Verse 2]
I'm all ready to sing, got the chord sequence down
I'm humming the tune, and I'm liking the sound
(Me too!)
But on my paper there's no words to be found
(Look, there's a word there and a word there and a word there!)
[Verse 3]
It would sound so neat, with something sorrowful
(I'm already crying!)
Or perhaps some words about how much I love you
(Ooh, thank you very much!)
But instead you're stuck, with a song about a song
(well kind of)
[Bridge]
I couldn't think of anything else to say
I promise I'll write a better one another day
(Yay)
And have you noticed that I've changed the key
(No, have you?)
The first bit was an A major actually
(Oh yeah!)
But I couldn't figure out, how to get back
Right now I think it's in E flat
(Is it?)
In fact
[Outro]
This song sounds completely different, to the start
(Well at least it goes)
I need to end it now, but I don't know how
(Aw, that's fine!)
So this will do?
(yep)
Ok
