callum - the songwriter lyrics

[verse 1]

give me god, give me poetry, give me danger, give me freedom, give me goodness, give me sin, these are a few of my favourite things. i don’t want comfort, leisure and pleasure. give me another falklands, i could write about the weather. i’m tired of composing sounds for the system. i want to write songs to fight wrongs, decades of received wisdom. production-line pop hits, it’s musical prozac. i’m no alpha, just a master-beta male typing pretentious tw-ttery, feeling under the weather. i don’t want your comfort and pleasure. give me god, give me poetry, give me danger, give me freedom, give me goodness, give me sin, these are a few of my favourite things

[hook]

you don’t know how much i suffer
typing in your hotel room
you’ve never known real pain or pleasure
feel good and write about my gloom
you don’t know how much i suffer
typing in your hotel room
you’ve never known real pain or pleasure
feel good and write about my gloom

[verse 2]

i tried to write another song, but i’m feeling too much gloom. yesterday i barely left my room. i was discontent, restlessly looking for the k!ller hook, the secret chord, the best guitars to play on, cultures and subcultures i could reappropriate from. now i’m just depressed, my life’s just a mess. my wife’s just the best but i rarely see her when i’m on tour. this is my encore, my song for you means nothing, just boilerplate angst, toil and hate shown to satisfy my stakeholders, placeholder lines left unreplaced. know that my soul’s just so much more complex than profane lyrical content given a context by my private life. so give me god, give me goodness, give me freedom, danger, sin, these are just a few of my favourite things
