Like Tiffany Glasses

Hopes and dreams are somewhat like some kind of translucent, colored glasses

What is your song idea? *
(sorry for the potential grammar mistakes, I'm not a native speaker :D)

Hopes and dreams are somewhat like some kind of transculent, colored glasses like Tiffany glasses... they have all kinds of colors and shades-sometimes lightly, but still, and they glisten ethereally, when the sun shines a ray on them.
But sometimes they explode, usually because of a ruthless inner thrust, and the little glass pieces are falling down in slow motion in front of our eyes, slowly and gradually losing their wonderful, unique colors and turning into some dull grey. Then we fall on our knees, then lie on the ground, and powerlessly, but still, we are looking, scavenging for little pieces that may have a slight, dim light of color in them frantically and lunatically. This dream, this ambition seemed like rebirth and the chance of a lifetime, again, like the others, and it fell into lifeless pieces agauin. Luck is rotating like a wheel, they say. So we sigh, gain some strength... first we get on our knees again... because we just can't give up. After some agony, we start to look for some pieces with some faint color or sheen in them, now with a bit clearer, fresher eye... to construct a new hope and dream again, from it. Because we're hopeful. And we can still go on and believe that it's THAT one. .. and we still hope that it isn't going to shatter like the other ones in the past.

What is your song idea? *
i'm so glad you have this online form! i've been meaning to make a request.

you miss west philadelphia
and west philly misses you
clark park has grown lugubrious
and the cats here have all turned blue
the porch sale where you sold your stuff
is hoping that you'll move
back to west philadelphia
and come home soon

you miss west philadelphia
and west philly misses you
all those cherries that you love
they're in the pits and homesick its true
the giant roaches are doing fine
in fact they're much improved
but the rest of west philadelphia
is depressed, and homesick for you...

Robot And The Octopus (Inspired by LaRu)

What is your song idea?
I recently bought an awesome belt buckle with a picture of a robot hugging an octopus on it. i would like a song detailing their forbidden and ultimately doomed love.

Picture here: http://www.etsy.com/transaction/45200798

Roboctolove



The robot would clean the lab all day
The neatest piles of the cleanest slides
And the beakers were all put in their place
Counting down the nanoseconds till he'd clean the aquarium

The octopus would do her best to catch his eye
Changing colors into binary numbers
With her suction cup array
Using their secret language to plot and plan their schemes

"I love you, Octopus!"
"I love you, Robot!"

The octopus wanted to return to the sea
The plan was simple: steal some solar panels,
A submarine and a car to escape
Drive to the ocean for a life beneath the waves

"I love you, Octopus!"
"I love you, Robot!"

Late one rainy night, when the scientists were asleep
The android and the cephalopod broke the locks and then hotwired a jeep

"I love you, Octopus!"
"I love you, Robot!"

Get Down With The Legion of Doom

What is your song idea?
Lately I have been really stuck on songs that contain instructions for doing a dance, ranging from something with really specific lyrics like "The Time Warp" to something pretty vague like "The Hustle," but I haven't found any dance instruction songs that are about things that are close to my heart, such as superheros or cupcakes. Could you guys make a superhero or cupcake dance instruction song?

hot



if you like to party
and don't like to follow rules
then take a romp through slaughter swamp
and get down with the legion of doom

lex luther brings the cupcakes
black manta brings the drinks
brainiac does the robot in back
'cause he don't care what the other cats think

bizarro he'll be twisting
giganta dances with wonder woman
captain cold he'll be dropping it low
and black manta will be doing the swim

gorilla grodd does the monkey
cheetah does the catwalk cross the room
brainiac does the robot in back
when he gets down with the legion of doom

if you like to party
and don't like to follow rules
listen up and i'll teach you the steps
and we'll get down with the legion of doom

step to the left the kick then punch
retreat to the back make a dodge then a duck
quarter turn to the right smoke bomb kaboom
you just got down with the legion of doom

The Flying Dutchman

What is your song idea? *
Could you please write a song for the verses below. Thanks.

en passant my attention was captured:/
magnificently emerging from amidst the orchids,/
idly eclipsing all the crowd around,/
lovely earthbound bird in its academic cage. /
you did not know that I was enraptured. /

embayed in my memory's remotest sea: /
me and my treasure roamed alongside,/
i yearningly held on to that easeful reverie,/
like the doomed Dutchman waiting for your annual return./
you - alas - did not have a remembrance of me./

eventually, my awkward cacology spoken in dismay:/
mercifully you bent your head on its slender neck,/
if only l could have formed something with those worn out words,/
limning how painfully beautiful you are to me./
you averted your eyes and flew away./

Wondergirl

What is your song idea?
You wrote a song about our son Jack and we love it! Would TW Tendrils to sing one about our daughter, Audrey? :)

Audrey Leah Joy is a tiny girl full of sweetness and wonder. A contrast of beauty and intelligence, she is ever-curious and absolutely gorgeous. She is equally adept at crying as she is at smiling. Her eyes are the color of the sea and her laugh makes everyone smile. She loves her binky, her brother Jacky, and playing outside, especially racing down the slide. When Audrey is around, its impossible to be unhappy. She just might be the most hilarious & sassy almost-three-year-old the world has ever seen :)

Thank you!

Nanapolooza

What is your song idea?
Nana is turning 90 in June and so we are having a nanapalooza. This will be her birthday song.

She met Daddy Pat in a bar in Mexico. They lived in Texas, Miami, New York City, London, and Hong Kong. She used to be a pretty big partier too with wild dresses and lots of drinking, before her christian stage. And she raised two complete sets of kids, waiting for the second pair until the first pair had left home. She used to bake homeade bread all the time until one time at a party when a fellow was talking about how much he loves homemade bread and misses it because his wife only bought storebought and Daddy Pat didn't brag on Nana and she never made homeade again.
She travelled all over the world with Daddy Pat since he was an international pilot. they owned an antique store called the green lantern when he retired.

Nana used to be obsessed with her hairdo so when traveling she would wear a plastic shower cap in some public places ie, taxi cabs or bus tours , so the wind wouldn't mess it up... it was very funny AND funny looking i am sure, especially in Israel, Thailand, Greece just to name a few.

Nana's mother was lots of fun and would go out and dance in the rain and be silly but had a hard time getting around as a result of having had polio as a child. She had a big cast iron skillet and would cook the biscuits in it followed by the bacon or sausage followed by the eggs for a one pan meal. Nana's parents were divorced and she used to plan to be home from a visit to her dad before the next childsupport payment was due in case he wouldn't send it otherwise and her mom had no other income.

Nana's grandparents lived on a farm in rural texas and were really sweet and loving and jolly. Nana used to swim in the cow tank there and walk barefoot down the dusty road to her friend's house. Her mom and dad almost got re-married after they were divorced but her stepmother got pregnant right as he was about to leave her. Her father owned a ford dealership in Texas. Her brother Bill was a baker. One time when we had a watermelon but no knife at a rest stop Nana broke open the watermelon with a great heave onto a cement bench and we just dug it out with our fingers.

Her dream house that she and Daddy Pat built on the river had a mexican feel with a courtyard and tile roofs. They used to go out on a houseboat and then later a pontoon boat. She had a beautiful fish pond there and paths through the bamboo and tons of flowers everywhere. You could watch the sun set over the Sebastion river.

Puppy Love

My Yellow Labrador, Chopper, is the source of love and joy in my life. I adore your songs and would LOVE it if you could create a song about puppy love :) I have an adorable photo of him if you need it for inspiration ;)

By the way...I refer to him as a puppy but he turns 13 years old this August. I feel that I need to make the most out of the time we have together.

He Does The Trick

What is your song idea?
On July 15, 2011, I will marry my best friend and the love of my life. We are high school sweethearts and have been together almost 9 years. We have so much fun together and just love to laugh and be goofy. We have never lived together and we just bought a house. We are so excited to embark on our new adventure as newlyweds and finally get to live together. I am a hopeless romantic, and he is a complete gentleman who always opens my car door for me even after 8.5 years! :o) I feel so lucky to have found such amazing love so early on in life. I can't wait to grow old with him. We will be that old couple who sits next to one another in the same booth at a restaurant. :o) I call him 'baby' and he calls me 'babe'.

and when we're newly married we are moving to a house
and when we're old he'll take my coat and then we will both sit
on the same side of the booth to eat and for me that does the trick

for me that does the trick
oh for me that does the trick
he's a perfect gentleman and i'm a hopeless romantic

and for me that does the trick
for me he does the trick
if you ask me what is love i simply answer this

that for me he does the trick

he's a perfect gentleman and i'm a hopeless romantic

Go Coco

What is your song idea?
Cocobean is a tiny girl with brilliant red hair. 2 years old and weighing in at a mere 20 pounds. She's a spitfire, though. All seeing, all knowing. She is the fly on the wall. Unassuming at times, but constantly observing, showing no indication that she understands until it's her time to show us. She does things her way. She wouldn't wait for us to get to the hospital before she was born and she doesn't wait for us to decide that it's time to put on "shirt-pants" or "go bye-bye". We are and always will be her constant support, but also her heaviest anchor. Go, Coco, go.

coco is a girl just a tiny lass
curls the color of a lobster back

just say go coco go coco go coco

she's like the fly walking up the wall
composite eye seeing all
we won't know that she's made up her mind till she tells us so
but then it's go coco go coco go coco

in a hurry since the day she was born
racing mom to the hospital ward
racing mom to the hospital ward
coco put the pedal down to the floor

her parentals are her constant support
coco puts the pedal down to the floor
i said it once, i said it once and i'll say it once more
i'll say go coco go coco go coco

i'll say go coco go coco go coco

My Paintbrush and I

What is your song idea?
In the magic of the night, awake when everyone else sleeps...I paint. I create. My heart is young, my art is fantasy, my older self lends it's wisdom without worrying about grey hair or eating too many carbs. I get lost in a world of mermaids and unicorns....find happiness in a place of pens, brushes, paint tubes and canvas....trade my crows feet in for wings of imagination, exchange my age spots for smears of paint...

There is magic in that liquid, like the waters of the fountain of youth...it re-energizes my spirit and masks the weariness that creeps into my bones...

I dare not succomb to the soft sounds of sleep in the air...for there will be plenty of time to slumber when I can no longer hold a paintbrush...and the Muse no longer whispers to me in the stillness...

each sleepless night my paintbrush and i
greet each muse as she come
as she come one by one

for my heart is young and my soul is old
my imagination fills with unicorns and mermaids wondrous to behold

and i greet each muse as she come
my paint brush and i each sleepless night one by one

i've learned happiness is filled with bristly tips
and were i to slumber i would be remiss, i'd be remiss

for i greet each muse as she come
my paintbrush and i each sleepless night one by one
my paintbrush and i each sleepless night one by one

Jacky Moon

What is your song idea?

This song is about our son, Jacky Moon. He's adorable and wild and is on a mission to destroy the house. He is super curious and equally sweet but he won't let you know about that part. He has a mop of dark brown hair, big brown eyes, chubby cheeks and a wide grin. He runs fast and shouts a lot :) He's also the cutest baby in the world. Left unattended he could potentially destroy the universe. He's one part superhero, one part villain, one part baby. His story must be told.

Beautiful destruction



jacky moon you are the wildest child
next to you the terrible twos seem mild
yes they do oh jacky moon

jacky moon you are made of quickness
and vroom the sound of your infant engines
oh vroom oh jacky moon

little jacky moon always tries to raise the roof
such a brave little man such a villainous papoose

jacky moon did your mop of brown hair
just consume the two eye balls i found there
peekaboo i see you jacky moon

Japanese makes no sense to me

I can feel your heart
I can feel your soul
and though we're apart
it's like we're close

Japanese makes no sense to me

but I can feel your heart
I can feel your soul
though I'm in the dark
it's like I know

Japanese makes no sense to me

so I just feel your heart
and you just feel my soul
with an old guitar
and a microphone

and though we're apart
it's like we're close
