When I get bored
Sometimes I read
About courageous things
With a heroic lead
But why can't all this stuff
Happen in real life?
The closest we have to villains
Are criminals or a chav with a knife

Why does excitement
Only come in story books?
Why can't I battle dragons?
Or fight Captain Hook?
Someone give me a goal
Or treasure to find
Cause I want to go on adventure

I could go on a quest
To destroy the ring
and battle goblins
Or other things
I could defeat evil wizards
That have no nose
I would go to places
That no one else dare goes

Why does excitement
Only come in story books?
Why can't I battle dragons?
Or fight Captain Hook?
Someone give me a goal
Or treasure to find
Cause I want to go on adventure
I could have magic powers
And a sword on my side
Riding along on my horse
Filling up with pride
The adrenaline rush
As I ride through the woods
No more annoying Chavs
Hiding under their hoods
Cause I want to go on an adventure

And when I've saved the world
My life will be unfurled
With all my newfound fame
Perhaps you'd know my name

I want to go an adventure!

Riding along on my horse

As I ride through the woods
No more annoying Chavs
Hiding under their hoods
Cause I want to go on an adventure

First thing, don't post 6 songs at once, you'll get no responses. Also, please post some reviews on other people's songs and lyrics before continuing to post.

That said a and done, I'm going to go about reviewing all the other songs briefly (given that I only skimmed them) and review this one a bit more in-depth.

The others are quite generic, but do have hints of good storytelling and the like and I think your idea of bringing in modern youth terms (socially awkward penguin, forever alone, etc) is interesting. It's not quite done right but it's at least somewhat original.

This lyric here I consider to be the best you've posted. It's fun for starters, which is always a great thing. I like the combination of stories and such people will recognise as they listen, that gives it an interesting personality.

It's not entirely original in premise though, but then again it's difficult to be enormously original in terms of premise in the first place.

Like I said, please review some other people's songs before continuing to post and please don't post in such volume again :)
