Something New and Something Old

Something New and Something Old

A Poem by Walker Andreasen
"

One of my newest songs. Again I'd be interested to see if anyone can guess my favorite band. They deeply influence me.

"
[No music]
Whips and fires, and horrible late night satires,
Are what's reserved for you in hell.

You can't tell the difference between hippocracy  and democracy,
This is the story on how they fell!

[music starts with first word]
Bringing out the best in you is what serves my gratitude
Everyday that I breathe alive.

You're horrible and shoddy, your eyes they are dodgy 
When I call you out on your lies.

[pseudo bridge]
But breathe deep and count to ten, 
This will all work out in the end. ( :] )

[laughter, then spoken]
Yeah I'm just kidding about that last part.

Thrash it out, scream it out, for heaven's sake bash it out
On the wall, with your fist!

You loathe, you seethe, that's fine with me
(cuz) I'm going out with my friends.

[bridge]
Because, it's time for:

[Chorus]
Something new and something old,
Why don't you quit trying to be so cold.
Something new and something old,
Look at me I'm being bold.

Hey!
[key change1]
(2x)If you can't see me then you can't bug me, and that's the way it should be!
You mush your brain on your mindless drug, that drama on your color T.V

[key change2]
And I don't know what you want from me.
did you think that you would be free?
Sit right there and tell me honestly:
[spoken kinda creepily with a D minor variation(don't know which one exactly)]
Your deepest desires.

[Back to original Key]
Anger and venom, a heart felt "condemn them!" ,
Is the sinew that holds you together.

You're sly as a fox, your heart's a metal box,
Filled with liquid nitrogen!

[Key change 2]
Cuz I don't know what you want from me.
did you think that you would be free?
Sit right there and tell me honestly:

[bridge in original key (trust me it works)]
Why it's time for:

[chorus]

Hey!

This is great. I am no good at music (no music talent what so ever) but in my head I could hear someone doing this as spoken word art or as music. That is a great piece of work if I can hear it.
