‘The Tailgate’ — lyrics to a R&B pop dance song

The Tailgate
lyrics by @sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

get away from the bar
get on the dancefloor
where you can be a star
squeeze in real tight
and you’ll find some delight
when you do the tailgate

do the tailgate
do the tailgate
do the tailgate

why make room
or make space
when you can get
right up in that thing
bumpin and grindin
do the tailgate

do the tailgate
do the tailgate
do the tailgate

(bridge)
people will look
people will stare
tell you to give’em room
but that’s not
why were here, to be clear

do the tailgate
do the tailgate
do the tailgate

‘Living In Denial’ — #lyrics To #pop #rock song

Living In Denial
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the seas are boiling
but at least you’re close to me
things are getting hot
I wish we had somewhere to flee
but I’m afraid that has no
viability
but in the end you’ll be by my side
as we all slowly cook

living in denial
is enough to make one roar
we all know the score
the adults in the room
just want to zoom
’cause they’re
living in denial
living in denial
living in denial

don’t mean to rile you up
but maybe I do
if I think about it
don’t button your shirt
rather loosen your tie
we’ve got a lot to think about
given that we all may die
’cause we’re
living in denial
living in denial
living in denial

(bridge)
when things cool down
and see the return of seasons
maybe we’ll look back and laugh
at how it was all a gas
but I’m afraid Mother Nature
is going to have the last laugh

living in denial
is enough to make one roar
we all know the score
the adults in the room
just want to zoom
’cause they’re
living in denial
living in denial
living in denial

‘Let’s Go Home’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Let’s Go Home
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

in the still of evening
we see each other in greeting
I hold your hand
in the grocery store
with longing and a desire for more
so I turn to you and say
baby

let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home
let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home

the sun has set
making me regret
the distance of the day
when I fret that you may
have drifted away
with a co-worker
much to my dismay
baby

let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home
let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home

(bridge)
when we arrive home
we race to bed
so we can give each other head
we come to the conclusion
that this is the way
things are meant to always be

let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home
let’s go home
stop our roaming
let’s go home

‘Butlerian Jihad’ #lyrics to a #rock song

I’m just being silly with this one. It really needs to be cleaned up. But I’m toying with different ways to express my frustration over the rise of AI.

Butlerian Jihad
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the machines are threatening
the very core of our existence
taking creativity from our souls
and turning it into digits
only humans should produce
the juice of our existance

is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
like Frank Herbert wrote
or are we just going to
lie down and quit
and be done with it.

machines can only do so much
humans are the best and creation
at least in my heart this is it
but one day soon we may confront
at time when not even song
is done by human hand
then what

is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
like Frank Herbert wrote
or are we just going to
lie down and quit
and be done with it.

(bridge)
no call for violence
in on my mind
but what I think is sublime
maybe we should say
that only humans have a say
in what creation may
happen one day

is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
is it time for a Butlerian Jihad
like Frank Herbert wrote
or are we just going to
lie down and quit
and be done with it.

‘For The Love Of Flowers’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

For The Love Of Flowers
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the machines are coming
the machines are coming
the machines are coming

what does it mean
to be a human
we all think we know
but we know for sho?
I like to think
when I’ve had too much to drink
that no machine will know
the joy or love
of flowers

the love of flowers
is a very human thing
not easy to replicate
by any digital mind
no matter how sublime
the love of flowers
the love of flowers
the love of flowers

the love of flowers
is a very human thing
not easy to understand
if you don’t have a soul
or any such thing
ones and zeros are not so bold
to know the joy of a flower
in one’s hands to behold

the love of flowers
is a very human thing
not easy to replicate
by any digital mind
no matter how sublime
the love of flowers
the love of flowers
the love of flowers

(bridge)
dead flowers
cold in your hand
break your heart
because of what could have been
but even then
you’re better off
than a robot
programmed to care not

the love of flowers
is a very human thing
not easy to replicate
by any digital mind
no matter how sublime
the love of flowers
the love of flowers
the love of flowers

‘Hot as Hell’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Hot as Hell
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

in the month of July
sometimes I feel about to die
there’s just nothing going on
I think with a sigh
if you would be my love
one who gives me a rub
maybe it would spark some joy
in this bored old boy

it’s hot as hell
I’m bored as can be
bored as can be
bored as can be
with out you with me
bored as can be
bored as can be

the moment you eye me
from afar
I know we have a love
a love that will go far
if you’ll just grant me
the wish of a kiss
then my boredom will abait
and I won’t have to masturbate

it’s hot as hell
I’m bored as can be
bored as can be
bored as can be
without you with me
bored as can be
bored as can be

(bridge)
excitement will come
now that you’re the one
I bow at your feet
something that’s no small feat
we’ll be together forever
even when it’s not hot weather

it’s hot as hell
I’m bored as can be
bored as can be
bored as can be
without you with me
bored as can be
bored as can be

‘Good Enough’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Good Enough
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

all I want to be
as you can see
is good enough
to turn your head
maybe get you in bed
is it even possible to
have such a dream

good enough
is all I want to be
good enough is my goal
good enough
good enough
good enough
is all I want to be

feeling frustrated
event as I’m prostrated
you won’t even give me a smile
when you look my way
much to my dismay
all I want to be
is good enough

good enough
is all I want to be
good enough is my goal
good enough
good enough
good enough
is all I want to be

(bridge)
one day I’ll hold you in my arms
or maybe that’s just a dream
maybe something in between
when we lay together
you’ll be all atwitter
but that’s just me letting off steam

good enough
is all I want to be
good enough is my goal
good enough
good enough
good enough
is all I want to be

‘Ghost In The Machine’ — #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Ghost In The Machine
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

humans have a warmth
no machine can match
we have a soul
shine brighter than the sun
with a warmth that can match
no machine can replace that

and yet here we are
with machines about to take over
ending our love with the truth
replacing it with ones and zeros

so don’t let the machines rule
don’t let the ghost in the machine
rule the roost
whatever you do fight the
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
until the end

it’s a strange time indeed
when machines call the shots
ruining everything in their path
with their hackish love for the bland
only a human can tell of love and its loss

and yet here we are
with machines about to take over
ending our love with the truth
replacing it with ones and zeros

so don’t let the machines rule
don’t let the ghost in the machine
rule the roost
whatever you do fight the
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
until the end

(bridge)
but it’s cheap as can be
to end the rule of humanity
so here we are at the end of history
worried that the age of humans is over
replaced with digits that are so bland
that we are all quite sad

and yet here we are
with machines about to take over
ending our love with the truth
replacing it with ones and zeros

so don’t let the machines rule
don’t let the ghost in the machine
rule the roost
whatever you do fight the
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
ghost in the machine
until the end

‘Sharp As Teeth’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Sharp As Teeth
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

you glance tears into me
like you’re eating my heart
out of my chest
once things were different
and there was peace in the land
between you and me
that was the plan
then things changed
and here we are
with you

tearing into me
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth

who am I to complain
when there’s bad blood in the main
between you and me I’m afraid
the red wine you’re drinking
gets me to thinking of
how you eat my heart out
and the blood spews out
’cause you’re

tearing into me
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth

(bridge)
maybe I fret too much
and we’ll make up
the water of tears of joy
will flow and was away the blood
but I’m afraid of what is next
will you tear into me again
sharp as teeth

tearing into me
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth
sharp as teeth

‘Can’t Stop Drinking About You’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Can’t Stop Drinking About You
lyrics by @sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

there are two things
driving me crazy
booze and women every day
day in and day out
give me pause for thought
I’m afraid
’cause I just wanna get laid
but booze is my friend
while you are out of my reach

I just can’t
stop drinking about you
drinking about you
drinking about you
no matter how hard I try
think I’m going to die

people tell me to give up
that you’re too good for me
a drunkard and a crank
but I see your legs in that dress
and I must confess I’m distressed
thoughts of the mess we would make
if you would give me a date

I just can’t
stop drinking about you
drinking about you
drinking about you
no matter how hard I try
think I’m going to die

(bridge)
I sober up
and I know
that our love is a no-go
but that doesn’t stop me
oh no
from hoping one day
we’ll hop in bed
and live in sin

I just can’t
stop drinking about you
drinking about you
drinking about you
no matter how hard I try
think I’m going to die
