Charlie vents his frustration while dealing with a bout of writer’s block.
Charlie’s later song “Losing My Mind” was inspired by a similar situation.
[Verse 1]
It's 10 P.M. and I am missin'
My seventh song for December 2nd
My mind's gone blank, I cannot think clear
About the lyrics for this song here
[Pre-Chorus]
How do people have the attention span
To go and do this?
Two hours in this chair
I might as well call it quits
[Verse 2]
It's 12 A.M. and I am so screwed
Looking up at people falling on YouTube
Getting so bored to the highest degree
This must be so easy for Kenny G
[Pre-Chorus]
How do people have the attention span
To go and do this?
Two hours in this chair
I might as well call it quits
Another sappy love song
My listeners will be pissed
I would seriously pay someone
Right now to go and help me with this
[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
This is the chorus line
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
I guess no lyrics here sounds fine
As long as I have a catchy melody
And some nice chord changes
So you won't see that
I suck at writing lyrics
[Bridge]
I suck
At writing lyrics
[Verse 4]
How do people have enough
Motivation to go and do this?
It feels like a day in this chair
And I haven't written down sh-
It feel like I'm running out of ideas
For all these pieces
And every time I try to get done
Procrastination increases
[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
This is the chorus line
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
I guess no lyrics here sounds fine
As long as I have a catchy melody
And some nice chord changes
So you won't see that
I suck at writing lyrics
