Post Lyrical Ideas
Hello fellow literature-interested Booters! As I'm sitting here on the computer with my lovely guitar trying to think of lyrics for the wonderful music that I have written with my bandmates, I seem to be unable to think of anything to write about- well, rather anything that would make sense as the only things that come to mind are Swedish Fish and the fact that Windows Vista is a terrible OS.

If you (or anyone else) have any ideas that would be absolutely wonderful, thank you :D

'No, the Romans Didn't Invent Armor'

There was a thread about this recently...

What's your genre?

Do you have anything available online?

Good point. Given the mention of swedish fish and Windows, I was thinking nerdcore...

Yeah, think of a combination of Blink-182 and I Fight Dragons. That's basically us.... although at a level that's far lower. Until probably next Thursday we won't have anything to put up on Bandcamp/Youtube since we're using a local organization's (Music Resource Center) recording equipment and such.

Assuming your intended audience members are mostly geeks...

Idea 1:

You could do something about how tired you are of playing the healer/(name of typical party role here). It doesn't have to be the healer; maybe he plays the tank (or whatever) and wants to do something else.

Or you could do something along the lines of 'Muahahaha, I get to decide who lives and who dies' from a healer's point of view.

Of course, this idea works for a number of MMORPGs too.

Idea 2:

Anything Dwarf Fortress-related.

Idea 3:

Zombies. You can't really go wrong with zombies, as long as you put a creative/new spin on it.

A critical deconstruction of modern globalism and how it degrades traditional cultural practices, leading to the loss of group identity and replaces it with a monoform societal self perception as Nero.

I think that's a little too complicated for a group of teenagers who can barely understand how a guitar works.

Sounds like a good idea for a song.
