Song About a Song

Weird side! Ladies and germs! It's my pleasure to introduce to you Your leader and savior, Oliver Hart! I just wanna send a special, special thank you today Anyone who donated a little of something in the collection can God won't forget you Now see, this next song is a song about writing this song Now I'm not some profound visionary but this specific incision didn't particularily take too long I was just running up these backstage stairs And suddenly it dawned on me What a good idea, true inspiration But with no pen or paper to record the creation I aborted the plans of grand innovation And stood bored pacing on the wood floor waiting for more wars to pour from my cranium Maybe I'm not cut out for this writing gig, I thought for a brief second But then it was like the lightning hit through me in a complete headspin And kept punching me with phrases concepts rhyme patterns and song structures A long flux that dropped fire 'til I was finally finished And in a matter of minutes consciousness is linked with the inventive infinite And one of my friends happened to have a pen So I wrote it all down on my hand That was that Thank you We're just gonna Thank you thank you We're just gonna pass the collection can around one more time Try to find it in your pockets and hearts to donate all your money God won't forget you
