I Need Some Words
by @lonelyrobot
Liner Notes
My 10 year old son Ethan has been a big cheerleader when it comes to my music and participation in FAWM, so I wanted to write a song with him and this is what we came up with.
Ethan came up with two riffs on his Loog guitar and we played one of them on a midi keyboard for the verse and recorded the chorus one on his Loog. The lyrics were very much a collab and are about different scenarios where you clam up and can't think of what to say. I tried to get him to sing or play on the song but he wasn't up for that yet, maybe one day.
Lyrics
No need to fret Own this regret Must leave scot-free Invent a story
“Speak out your answers loud and clear” All of those thoughts will disappear My mind becomes a mutineer I need some words to fit in here
Put on the spot Off guard, boycott Take a big sigh Say hi to some guy
“Speak out your answers loud and clear” All of those thoughts will disappear My mind becomes a mutineer I need some words to fit in here

Haha, the chorus riff is GREAT! This is really fun, excellent teamwork.

Oh Cool collab with your son! Upbeat and the lyric is fun but interesting, I really like "my mind becomes a mutineer". Never heard of a Loog before?
