I'm right as in "alright" not "correct", btw.
So I decided after my day today that another soft song was in order after the harshness of the frusso, angsty monstrosity that is "Change My Ways"... This is it, it's a lot more positive :) I actually wrote it to lift my own mood when I was down in the dumps for no reason and it worked so I'm hoping it might be good to remind the listeners to think positively... It helps, it really does.
LYRICS:
Quiet is on the way
And I finally feel safe
You know I'll settle down soon
And I'm right
Quite alright, yeah
I'm checking out the dust under my desk
It seems that vacuuming would be best
It makes me sneeze quite a bit
But I'm right
Quite alright, yeah
And I'm staring at the sky
And I'm listening to traffic racing by
And I'm content with this life
And I'm right...

There are a few missed notes and there are timing issues in the solo (improvising without backup doesn't always work 100%) but I wasn't in the mood for caring too much about that kinda thing anyway. There's no message to the lyrics - just letting off steam.
LYRICS:
They used to say
They'd love to trade places with me
And change into my lane
'Til became the day
Lost all the traces of me
And I can't make myself change
I don't wanna change my ways
Been a long time
Feels like a lifetime away
I don't wanna change my ways
(Break)
I don't wanna change my ways

This little fella followed me inside on my shirt when I was about to (or just finished, I don't remember) mow the lawn... It looked so mad when I dropped it, but it's so cool! I can't believe I actually got it to lunge at the camera! I love it, enjoy :)

Here's zzz33333's version! Something fairly new in the world of music, taking a comedy song and making a serious version - an interesting collaboration. Enjoy! (The original: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=a1zPqC4fnuc)
Oh, just realised "backwards" and "faster" were meant to rhyme, but don't in my accent...
LYRICS (by zzz33333):
My house decayed in a couple dreams today
I was walking backwards, talking faster, I would say
I been thinking
That we're sinking
And I'm kind of wishing I could hear the truth
And I'm betting so profusely on my work it starts to hurt
Forgotten I had anything that once held any worth
Waiting on a savior; dunno what I'm thinking of
But the only thing that seems to fit is love,
And I got a lot
Yeah, I got a lot
I been thinking
That we're sinking
And I'm kind of wishing I could hear the truth

Turns out I'm not as clever as I thought and I will not be getting good sound AND video at the same time until someone can show me how... I'm unsatisfied with a still picture for the duration of the song, and the mic is so hollow and weak as oppose to the cam, which has a really full sound, if a little distorted, that's what I'll be sticking with, I reckon. Tell me your thoughts over which you like best.
Anyway, simple song, simple works for comedy, just silly fun to lift the mood - enjoy!
LYRICS & CHORDS (there are no secrets in a song like this, lol :P)

My house became a mug of steam today
F D#
A can of heat today, my fan can't make it go away A#

And I'm so glad that my parents didn't name me Kurt

But Kurt's just not a name that could fit me like a glove A# F
This heat makes me lose train of thought, what was I thinking of? A# A# F D#

*EDIT: Here's the original video with nasty sound :P dunno why you'd wanna watch it instead, but if you do: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=VCQ1CqXeqOw
Well I recorded it with my computer mic this time; the sound's a lot clearer but it makes the whole thing sound weak... Oh well, at least it's clear!
The picture's a couple years old, it's at the airport just before my buddy (on the right) went home to Japan for the holidays. It's got nothing to do with the song, btw! :P Enjoy.
LYRICS:
It seems life moves so slow
When we wish it would take us away
And it seems it's all too hard
To keep pushing through each every day
Looking back on our lives, we see these things
We desired
Looking down in despair,
Tired
Looking to the future, we see these things
We wish we could do
Trying to convince ourselves
We're fine
Alone, sunlight feels like raindrops
And you're pitying your scars
But wait for your friend at night
He's watching from the stars
And he says "you're not in wanting"
He says "you're not alone"
He says "I didn't leave for nothing,
"Don't forget when you go home"
Looking back at his life, you see the purpose
He already fulfilled
You hang your head in grief,
Even still
Looking to your future, realising
He'll always be there
Knowing in your heart
He's fine
He sings "I'll always be there"
As he lulls you off to sleep
You scream how much you love him
When you see him in your dreams
He hates to see you cry
He'd rather see you fine
And he says, yeah
He'll always be there, yeah
Looking back on our lives, we see the things
That we've accomplished
Looking up, for once
Energized
Looking to the future, we think of the things
We are going to do
We've dealed with the past
We're fine

My cat cheered me up this one night in particular when I was cold as a stone, and this is what it inspired (I had to put in all these brackets because the story of writing the song means something to me).
The ending ain't perfect, but it's got passion, lol. I'm not pretending to be a rockstar or anything, standing up at the end and all, that's for the mic's sake so you can understand the soft bit and the loud bit won't sound whack. The facial contortions aren't for show either, they just happen naturally! :P
*EDIT: Oh my gosh... Creepy ending face...
LYRICS:
Hey, little kitten, rub against my leg
Make me feel wanted, I'm begging you, don't make me beg
Hate is feeding on my body like lice (don't remember exactly where that line came from...)
You break my heart, I'm melting like ice (bit clichéd, but that's just how it goes)
Take me away to a far away place
Where I can gaze out into the endless space (that's what I did, out on the lawn)
My rage desperately needs to calm
Your face curls me up to sleep in your palm (metaphorically)
Purr for my love and purr for my life
Purr 'til you get that old sun to shine
'Cause you brighten (up) my days
Like you're made from the rays
Of the moon (lol, days + moon! I did that on purpose! I'm so freakin' cool)

Been a while since anyone's heard the rough vocals come out! Here they are! It was a fun cover to do, grunged out just a little...
I thought about doing it on the electric but it's just too harsh unaccompanied by drums and bass, so it had to be the acoustic. The last chord is wrong, I'm not even sure what it's supposed to be... :S
I filmed this in our downstairs spare room - the most soundproof room in the house I reckon, so there are no trucks, crows or noisy pool filters interfering with this one! :D
LYRICS:
I want you to remember
A love so full it could send us always/all ways
And I want you to surrender
All my feelings rose today
And I want you to remain
The power of children can amaze
And I'll try not to complain
I know that's a pisser, baby
(Chorus)
The chemicals between us, the walls that lie between us,
Lying in this bed
The chemicals displaced, there is no lonelier state,
Than lying in this bed
I want you to remember
All the things you said, every driven word
Like a hammer
Hell, to my head
(Chorus)
The chemicals between us, the chemicals between us...
The chemicals
We are all hollow men, we are the naked ones
We never meant you harm, never meant you wrong
And I'd like to thank all of my lovers? lol...
(Chorus)
The chemicals between us, the chemicals between us...
Lying in this bed

I said I'd upload something energetic, and this isn't REAL energetic but it's a fairly interesting little tune I wrote one day a couple months ago when I was sick as a dog and just skipped breakfast. Tangential, slightly arbitrary lyrics ensued and these are those!
The background noise is nasty because my window was wide open (it lets in the humming from the pool filter right below) and I'm a silhouette for most of the video because the window's too bright. I even shone my desktop lamp at myself - maybe I'll have to shut the blinds next time... Then again, maybe the fragipani tree by the window is better viewing material after all? :P
LYRICS:
I missed breakfast
This morning, in my bed
Remembered I'd never gone hungry
For a day in this life I've led
This tiny taste of hunger
Reminded me just how lucky I am
How could I curse out loud
When I'm assured I'll grow to be a man
I missed breakfast
This morning, wasting time
Needed a prompt to get me up
And make up my mind
One day I'll make my mark
On this world in my own special way
But not right now, you know
It doesn't have to be today
Nah, nah, don't push me, honey
Not just now
Today I'm chillin'
I always sort these things out
