Songwriting

The boys put on a performance last night. The type where they gather everyone together and sing songs they've made up. Good times, right?

Here is a sampling of lyrics that Declan came up with, after warning me that this was going to be a song that's about "something not very nice."

"Do you like being dead?
You're going to be dead forever!
You're going to be dead for the rest of your life!
Even when you're driving, you're going to be dead."

All the while Logan's standing to the side of the "stage" and saying, absolutely incensed, that someone who's alive can't be dead and how can someone who's dead be driving?!

Now, I know this song sounds like it's toeing the line of viciousness, but it had a nice little tempo and was rather upbeat. I'm just saying, given his love of "Dragula" and "Crazy Train" I think we've definitely got a metal future on the horizon.
