link to the song.

I'm not

the captain;

I'm a captive

actively practicing

my octaves.

I'm not

the captain;

I'm a hapless

victim of his

and all his actions.

I’m not

the first class;

I serve

the crass fat cats

mostly a list

of Mozart and Lizst.

I'm not

the first class-

cursed to worst class,

first to drown

and last to be found,

lifeless.

O,

sainted patron

of the arts,

This is an earworm! It could become a hit!

[encrefloue]

Aw 😄 Thank you so much!

[rayaso]

This is an extremely catchy song. I love that you used the prompt for the chorus.

[encrefloue]

Always a joy to know when a song has staying power! Thank you!

[viagra]

Sooo good! Again, I love the contrast between the music and the lyrics-I listened to it first and found it really catchy and movement-inducing, then I settled in without the audio and just read it like a poem, and it really works both ways. I'll be first in line for the album when it comes out. ;-)

[encrefloue]

Thank you!! Trust me, it'll be even more booty-shaking on the album! Wish I had more time to bring out the backing tracks as I hear them in my head.

This one is so catchy! And I agree with rayaso that using the prompt for the chorus just works really well!

[encrefloue]

Thank you! I was worried that the chorus was a bit too on-the-nose, but I'm so glad to hear that it works!

[kittenboo]

The cadence of this is wonderful!

[encrefloue]

Thank you very much!
