In opposition to my previous lyrics post - this one speaks to me everyday

About this song - the internet of things is not only for devices but for people too

The parts in () are music related notes for the feels and later use

Here it goes:
Never shave that beard


Pre-song:
What are you doing! Stop!
Why? I’m just shaving the beard, that’s all
No, your profiles man! The profiles!!!!!!!!


OK, replacing profile picks
First, take a selfie, hear that click
Then open facebook, find upload
Click that thumbnail wait till it showed

(Music stops)
And now repeat this on: (riff per line)
Google plus
Twitter
Tumblr
Tinder
Watsup
Waze
And IRS

OK it seems that’s life online
Is too diverse but it is fine
I’ll just hide and never leave home
And while beard grows I'll be alone

(Music stops)
And now let’s revert the profiles on (riff per line)
Bicycle forum
Three dating apps
Immigration form
Snapchat
Linked in
(Fade away)
Wikipedia
Aliexpress
eBay
Pizza hut online
Library card

Hi Jackdaw - you have a beard too?

[Paulski]

Haha - I like it 
Good commentary on how we do a seemingly simple thing and it has broad implications.
A bit of the butterfly effect on the internet. 
Think I would call it "Don't lose the beard" though - no idea why.

cheers
Paul

[2tuoo]

Paulski - I'm glad it resonates with you

I think there are endless version of this possible - never change your glasses, never do the lasic surgery (same subject)
Never get a girlfriend
Never change your hobby

Cool idea mate, made me smile. I like the way the title doesn't reveal the topic. My own personal gripe is the passwords more than the pictures though...
I can't really imagine this 'sung' since the lines are too short to have much melody or rhythm to them, but I could imagine it as spoken word... maybe a robotic voice over some digital music... do you have a treatment in mind for it?

Try using Imac or Veet ha ha :-)
Hopefully it will remove these lyrics as well?

IMO never shave that beard will never ever make a Song.

I'm looking forward to hearing this. I think it's going to be really fun.

On a forum such as this where there are folk at all stages of their creative journeys and we all strive to encourage each other using good advice and very often the offer of practical help,or collaboration,how do you imagine your above quoted disparaging comments fit in this context?

Not sure if you're trying to be cute/funny or just an asshole there mate.

I don't usually comment too much in the lyrics section but occasionally there is something so different,  unique and creative that I have to. This is wonderful,  and brain dump fusion of modern life.

What we absolutely do not need on this forum is degrading, snide comments from members who have made very little contribution .

This is a forum that supports and helps it's fellow members and if you want to join in then you're very welcome. I'll stop now .....

[PaulAds]

Yes...I noticed this earlier...and I agree completely with the more recent comments above.

you mean another chance at comments like this is allowed?
I think a six month ban is in order..

[Boydie]

Yes - I personally believe in trying to sort issues out before dishing out bans

I would prefer to "educate" and "encourage" than simply dish out bans as many different types of people make up a community

We have all typed something that hasn't come across well whether we are trying to be funny, make a little quip or we are at the keyboard drunk!

However, there clearly comes a point where a ban is necessary so a final warning has been issued and if there is no change action will be taken as I can be comfortable that I have given enough chances/warnings before issuing a ban

I would suggest members use the "Report Post" button or PM me if they notice any further issues and let the me deal with it rather than having a public "war of words"

Having heard your recently posted song 2tuoo I really look forward to hearing this as a track! You have very insightful lyrics and a unique way of producing them as songs! Will be keeping me eyes peeled for the posted track...no suggestions for tweaks as I have a suspicion they'll fit the music perfectly!
