I'm a songwriter without a band...so rather than let the songs sit in a box forever, I've decided to give them out to whoever wants to use them...
If you find one you like, have fun with it!
"Free" means free. I'm not after royalties, or license fees. Sure, I'd love to be the next Bernie Taupin, but I'll settle for an audience of one. Click here if you've never heard of Creative Commons.
Here are the lyrics. More to come later...
The catch? If you turn one of my lyrics into a song, please send me a copy--even if it doesn't go multi-platinum! I'd love to hear it! Just e-mail an mp3, avi, .wav, whatever! We can even post it here, if you like!
The other catch is that these songs were written to particular melodies, so they don't always follow strict meter and rhyme. If you want the melody to a particular song, drop me an e-mail. I have no recording equipment, but I can produce a crude lead sheet.
And if you want a custom lyric written just for you, or you're a band or songwriter seeking a lyricist...let me know!
