‘Instababe’ — #Lyrics To A Pop Song

I just screwing around at this point. I just like the idea of a song about the hot girls of Instagram. This is meant to be pretty mindless. I have no beat, but I could imagine someone like Katy Perry singing it. But no one cares about anything I write, so this is just for fun. This would be sung from a woman’s point of view. This is just a first draft and written just for fun.

Instababe

see them on your phone
they make you want to moan
in their skimpy clothes
in hot climes
what do those Instababes have
what do they have that I don’t
you can look all you like
look all you like
but you can’t touch them
like you can me

those Instababes
ain’t nothing let me tell you
those Instababes
got nothing on me
I’m here for you
they’re just a dream

you wish you could be
with those Instababes I see
but I know for a fact
you’d be better off with me
dream of them all you like
they won’t meet you at night
bring you delight that’s out sight

those Instababes
ain’t nothing let me tell you
those Instababes
got nothing on me
I’m here for you
they’re just a dream

[bridge]
I’m ready and waiting
waiting for you to look my way
once you’re done with them
our love will never fade

you’re going to be mine
I can tell that for sure
waiting for you to make up your mind
I’m biding my time
but in the end
you’ll be in my bed
with those Instababes long gone
from your head

‘A Battle Of Pride’ — #Lyrics To An Angry Anti-Trump Pop-Rock Song

This whole Rob Porter thing has made me furious. It’s so obvious that the Trump Administration is lying. So, out of frustration, I’ve decided to write lyrics to an angry Temple of The Dog type song. I’m not saying I’m the greatest lyricist, but I do find writing lyrics relaxing.

A Battle of Pride
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls

wake up to another day of lies
the president grabs’em by the pussy
’cause he’s a celebrity and can get away with it
I know I wasn’t raised that way
my views alienate my peers
but all I can say is I’ve found my hill
and I’m taking my stand

I’ve found my hill
found my hill to stand on
found my hill to die on
found my hill to die on
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride

my peers think I’m a fool
they tell me to enjoy the economy
tax cuts keep things humming
why don’t I just shut up and get laid

how can I do that I exclaim
when wife beaters are accepted in the White House
am I the only person willing to take a stand
has everyone else lost their mind
I know I’ve not lost mine

I’ve found my hill
found my hill to stand on
found my hill to die on
found my hill to die on
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride

[bridge]
keep your eye on the prize
keep it as focused as you can
we’re going to win this one
if we all stand as one

I’ve found my hill
going to die on in
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride
this is my battle of pride

‘Not All Men’ — #Lyrics To A Pop-R&B Song

Many women are so fed up with men and their sexist behavior, that they’ve totally given up. When a guy like me protests that “not all men” are dicks, they just throw up their hands in disgust. Well, that’s a perfectly legitimate opinion, I guess, but it does inspire me to write lyrics to an R&B song.

Not All Men
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

you tell me you’re done with men
that they’re a sin you’re done with
when I tell you to give me a chance
give me a chance because I’m nice
you glare and stare me down
but all I can say with all honesty is

not all men are bad as you fear
not all men can stroke like I do
not all men know you to make you moan
not all men will hold you tight near midnight
make your dreams come true

you shake your head with all your might
throw your drink at might sight
but I take your hand in all honesty
bring you close so I can look you in the eye
place my hand lightly on your thigh
I whisper real close so you can hear

not all men are bad as you fear
not all men can stroke like I do
not all men know you to make you moan
not all men will hold you tight near midnight
make your dreams come true

[bridge]
the music begins to play
and we both know we’re going to get laid
you smell so nice
nearly shimmer in the night
be mine, baby I’ll make it all alright

the next morning I fix you coffee
you smirk my way
things are just beginning babe
I swear I’m here to stay

not all men are bad as you fear
not all men can stroke like I do
not all men know you to make you moan
not all men will hold you tight near midnight
make your dreams come true

‘Cat Lady’ — #Lyrics To A Pop-Soul Song

I sometimes get in the mood where I want to write song lyrics for no other reason than it’s relaxing. I just like telling stories in verse. And I have a little time on my hands, so here you go. No one cares about any of these lyrics so it’s pretty much just for my own enjoyment. I see this as having a Marvin Gaye vibe to it.

Cat Lady
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

you tell me no man is good enough
that you’d rather die alone
than feel the warm embrace of another lying man
but I know in your heart
while you clink to your pussy cat
late, late, late at night
that you pine for the loving
the type of loving only a man can bring

you’re a cat lady that’s for sure
but give me a chance and I’ll be your tom cat
you’ll find your lace on the floor
willing to go once more

cat lady come here dear
cat lady let me hold you tight
cat lady, cat lady, cat lady

our love will rock our worlds
things will do tonight will be lengdary
who knows, honey, might make a baby
you’ve got to give me a chance though
let me prove to you that I’m worthy of your love
won’t take much for this to go down
I’ll turn your world upside down

you’re a cat lady that’s for sure
but give me a chance and I’ll be your tom cat
you’ll find your lace on the floor
willing to go once more

cat lady come here dear
cat lady let me hold you tight
cat lady, cat lady, cat lady

[bridge]
I know men are dogs
too many have broken your heart
you’ve closed it tight, tight, tight
but I promise, I swear our love is real

but in the end kindness is your friend
you’ve got to see what I see
got to see that your pain and suffering
will fade away like a warm rain
if you let me into your heart
late at night

be my cat lady
be my cat lady
be my cat lady

‘Americans’ — #Lyrics To A Woke Pop Power Ballad

Sting has a great song, “Russians” about the Cold War. These lyrics are about the current political Cold Civil War going on in the United States. Or something. Something like that. I don’t have any beats, so I am simply listening to Russians as I write these lyrics. As always, this is just me venting, relaxing by telling a story in verse.

Americans
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

fake news is spread by the president every day
we’re fighting over texts about secret societie
made in jest, made in jest
why are Americans so divided now I want roar
it all festers without a cure

I just hope that Americans will unite in the end
if we don’t then the dream is over
if we don’t then the dream is over

Americans have to figure out a cure to this fever
find some way for us to have a clue
but if we don’t then it’s the end of our state
we will no longer have God’s good grace
no boo, vote I’m told by my leaders
but the poor still can’t afford heaters

I just hope that Americans will unite in the end
if we don’t then the dream is over
if we don’t then the dream is over

[bridge]
we’re just going to have to wait
until Trump is no longer chief of state
it looks like we’re doomed but I believe
we’ll make it out alive
at least I pray

now take my hand and let us unite
take the good fight to the streets
maybe things will work out
but we’ll never know if we don’t engage
our birthright is at stake I tell you

‘Release The Memo’ — #Lyrics To A Woke Pop-Rock Song

So, the Right has this surreal, dumb conspiracy theory on its mind AGAIN. This is meant to be an angry rock song about how the Right has no real ideas other than spewing conspiracy theories as it becomes ever more obvious that they’re completely full of shit. As usual, I don’t have a beat, so I’m listening to Soundgarden’s Black Hole Sun just to set the mood if nothing else. If I could get co-writer and some new beats, this might be pretty cool.

Release The Memo
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

talking heads do their thing
telling me what to think
I see the Righwing nutjob in a rage
explain that we need to see the memo
all I can say is sure

release the memo
you’re full of shit
release the memo
you can just suck it

Trump is destroying this nation
bringing it to its knees
dividing us so he can do as he please
wants a Fortune slapped against his rump
Stormy will do it for a fee
at least that’s what they tell me

Mueller grows closer to the truth
the dirt will be out of the ground
Trump and his cronies will be lying around
what are we going to do
when the facts are known
and the Right just shrugs

release the memo
you’re full of shit
release the memo
you can just suck it

[bridge]
I wish I had the answers
wish I could solve this quick
but our president’s a dick
he just wants to lick his face
it’s obvious to me at least

now we’re all doomed I fear
no matter what
so sure, release the memo
release the memo
release the memo
release the memo

‘Secret Society’ — #Lyrics To An Angry Pop-Rock-Hip Hop song

This song is about how completely delusional Trump supporters are and it seems as though there’s nothing you can say that will get them woke.

Secret Society
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

the first rule of the secret society
is there is no secret society

Trump is a god it’s to you it’s true
I can scream till I’m blue in the face
but I have to deal with your logical disgrace
your girl is willing to shake her rump to Trump
and you lobe your drool my way
but what are we going to do as you toggle the facts
I hate to lump you in with racists
but Trump is a racist it’s a fact
sorry if I have principles that you lack

there’s no secret society
there’s no secret society
no secret that you’re a fool
what am I going to do

you don’t seem to care that I dare you to see
the facts that are as clear as the day
nothing can get you to admit that Trump is not god
you hold the same nation dear that I do
but why is this not as red as the sun
that Trump is a piece of scum
you refuse to admit the shit I know is true
’cause you’re obsessed with a secret society
that doesn’t exist within the government

there’s no secret society
there’s no secret society
no secret that you’re a fool
what am I going to do

[bridge]
wish this wasn’t the case
it would be nice if we could agree
but we can’t agree on the facts
and that’s just sad

now what is all I can say
you tell me I just need to get laid
enjoy the economy
I can get all the humming a man can want
I’ll still be angry as can be
about what I feel Trump is doing to
the nation I love so much

there’s no secret society
there’s no secret society
no secret that you’re a fool
what am I going to do

‘Toady’ — #Lyrics To Pop-Rock Song

This is just me bitching about Stephen Miller, Trump’s little toady. I’m angry about the situation in general and I’m venting.

Toady
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

he’s a little twerp
runs the president like a jerk
disrupts work of the people
thinking he can close Ellis Island’s doors for keeps
wants to grow up to be Goebbels
what are we to do
what are we to do

toady
that’s you little Stevie
you’re a toady it’s true
toady
what are you going to do?
what are you going to do?

thinks he’s got all the answers
thinks he can run the show don’t you know
but we all know he’s just a toady
he can huff and puff all he wants
in the end he’s through

the people will rise up in time
to make little Stevie eat our cake
we’re all in a rage for his head
one day it’ll arrive in haste
just you wait and see

toady
that’s you little Stevie
you’re a toady it’s true
toady
what are you going to do?
what are you going to do?

[bridge]
when this is all over
what are you going to do
go back under the rock
where you once lived
that’s my guess

now let’s go to the polls
we’re soon going to be on a roll
vote the Republicans out of office
we’ve got to, we’ve got to

‘A Blue Wave Is Comin” — #Lyrics To A Pop-Rock-Folk Song

I enjoy writing lyrics because it’s relaxing. No one cares about anything I write one way or another, so this is just me mentally masturbating. I just like to try to tell stories in verse, so you get this. This is about my hopes for the 2018 mid-terms.

A Blue Wave Is Comin’
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

things are looking dire
seems like all we can do is aspire
to a blue wave this year
something to bring back sanity
but who knows what will happen
all we can do is vote, vote, vote

a blue wave is comin’
a blue wave is comin’
that’s right
a blue wave is on its way
gunna blow Trump away

nothing seems to change
I watch events as they unfold on TV
when will my government return to normality
will I ever get to see anything change
or will the fascist when in the end
all I can say is believe
believe in the truth

a blue wave is comin’
a blue wave is comin’
that’s right
a blue wave is on its way
gunna blow Trump away

[bridge]
how they can keep a straight face
up on capitol hill while they lie
for a cheap thrill
I just don’t know

in the end
we’ll win my friend
that you can trust me about
we’ve got history on our side
let’s ride!

a blue wave is comin’
a blue wave is comin’
a blue wave is comin’
a blue wave is comin’

‘The Wall Is The Wall’ — #Lyrics To A Pop-Rock Ballad

As usual, Trump tweeted something stupid this morning. The turned out dumber than I expect, but it’s just a very rough first draft. Made me feel better to write it.

The Wall Is The Wall
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform

I’ve been a loon for years now
president now I spout off on stupid shit
the key to my success has to been my dumb wall
the idea hasn’t change at all
even though it has
the wall is the wall
the wall is the wall

people try to convince me we don’t need a wall
that they don’t make for good neighbors
and there is something that doesn’t like one
but I won’t listen because I never do
you can’t get me to change my mind I never will
the wall is the wall
the wall is the wall
the wall is the wall

when we’re dead from my pushing my big red button
it won’t matter at all
but I have the gaul to push for my damn wall
doesn’t matter if you have a dream
a dream of staying in this great nation
the wall is the wall
the wall is the wall
the wall is the wall
