Hi,

welcome to the forum.

Have a listen

Found these two extra lyrics i wrote 1993, that i do not include in my collection of the other 52. Here you go!




What a feeling! ( 1993 )

I gave myself up to you.
I had you smiling everyday.
I responded to your calls.
When i picked, i picked only you.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Holding hands, we shared our bond.
Kissing publicly. we displayed our passion.
I dressed you up in the latest fashions.
Tentalizing you i did, whenever i undressed.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Waking up every morning, yu´re in such a good mood.
To everyone else, our relationship was the best.
Shortly, i started to think.
Something here really stinks.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Eating aspirin, i wonder why.
Knowing the cause, i start to sigh.
Babe, you´re starting to get on my nerves.
Your nagging is constantly increasing.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Paranoid, that´s what you´re getting.
Complaining about everything you do.
Babe, you´re ready for retirement.
You´re driving me nuts.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Your nagging is driving me insane.
Your appearance is starting to give me pain.
Nag here, nag there. Whym you´re nagging anywhere.
Ignoring you, i´d rather drink a beer.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

Babe, you´re going senile.
Riding with you, i´d rather walk an extra mile.
Get a hold on that motormouth.
If you go north, i´ll go south.

What a feeling! A feeling, a feeling, a feeeeeling!

I´ve had it with your hyperness.
Having you out is a headache less.
Pack your bag and leave with your nag!

What a feeling! What a feeling! What a feeling! With you gone, i´ll crawl on the ceiling!
The ceiling, ceiling ,ceiling, ceiling, ceiling. What a feeling...a feeling!
What a feeling! What a feeling! What a feeling! With you gone, i´ll crawl on the ceiling!
The ceiling, ceiling ,ceiling, ceiling, ceiling. What a feeling...a feeling!




Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me! ( 1993 )

Playing ball, i saw you on the bench with a crowd.
Scoring, i heard you cheer rather loudly amidst a dull approaching cloud.

Glancing over my shoulder, i saw you smiling at me.
Looking at you, i wanted more of you to see.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Leaving the ground, i wiped off the sweat to see you better.
Having gone away, i found out your name to be Heather.

Flipping through my mind, i recall every inch of your appearance.
Not pursuing you would make no sense.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Sitting on a bench by the beach, i saw a figure running on the sand.
Believing it was you, i was feverishly waving my hand.

Runing after you, i tumbled head-long.
Squinting ahead, you were already gone.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Buying soda by a stand, there you were.
Baby, being this close makes my pursuit even more sure.

Baby, your voluptious body is exactly what i want.
Don´t run away! Don´t keep me in such a taunt.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Let me feel you! Let me hold you!
Studying you, i know, i know you want me too.

Swinging away, i can´t help but noticing your luscious behind.
Following after you, i can hear my teeth grind.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Cathing up with her, i utter her name.
Piercing her eyes, i said to let us stop this arousing game.

Asking her out, she said yes.
Frisking home, nothing would this single chance mess.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Meeting her by a cinema, we walked in together.
Touching my hand, i felt her glove with a layer of smooth leather.

Watching the movie, we snuggled together tightly.
Feeling her this close, sure is something i would like to do nigthly.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Getting a hook on mee, we meet everyday.
Caressing you, there is nothing to say.

Giving me a tender kiss, i respond lovingly.
I find everything about you so interestingly.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Sitting on my lap, my hands are exploring your bodily meat.
Basking in the sun, everything seems so neat.

Going to an amusementpark, we´re having nothing but sheer fun.
Winning prices to you i do, by hitting all the targets with a pellet-gun.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Dining out, we share our thoughts mutually.
Sensing me, you know my feelings towards you are mounting like a rally.

Standing by a corner, we share our hot romance.
Shadowed by the darkness, we enjoy ourselves with some dance.

Giving me a last kiss, you tell me to call you tomorrow.
Baby, don´t leave me with such a teasing sorrow.

Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!
Baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, don´t tease me! Please, please me!
Pleeeeeeeeease, please me!

Yes, it can be interesting! I like action, sci-fi and special effects.

But...i like even more nonfiction movies like "Scarface" and "Midnight Express".... and my favorite genre is Martial Arts.

My favorite movies are the "Lone Wolf and Cub"-series.

Welcome B4N3M4N

From what im reading your style of writing is coming across to me that you will find writing lyrics very easy also poetry, but my advice to you is post your lyrics if not then the best of luck to you.

Another piece of advice is here as you can see we communicate using the written word, so if and when you do decide to post your lyrics and believe me i really do hope you do, you will receive feedback, my advice is take your time to think on what words you use to reply.

Again Welcome and enjoy the journey, its going to be a long one   8)  or then again, maybe a short one   8)

Never like poetry! I find poetry to be lame...sorry!

Yes, true, i have no bigger problem writing. I can be creative at times! And don´t worry..i always try to be diplomatic by nature, if such occasion arises.

My creativity does not only steam into literature: i have also dealt with innovations ( like trying to get a patent ).

My desire is really not to be or get recognized on a forum itself, but i am more looking for a possible collaboration.

Therefore, i am unsure if i should post any of my written lyrics from 1993. Remember that i am a childlish person ( even though i am an adult - i am just playful by nature ).

I will consider your request and perphaps post one of my 52 lyrics from 1993. But be warned: it can as well be childlish ( actually i just read my first lyric....and i started to laugh on occassions ). I am just a silly man ( but i can conform according to wishes/guidelines ). Heeeeh!


Thanks for your reply may i suggest you start by posting some feedback on this great forum, as a writer of words myself i always find that to be a great help to me as im sure you will yourself.

Welcome to the forum   8)

Just a few sec. ago i copied my VERY FIRST lyric ever written ( out of my 52 ) in 1993 and this from only having been given the advice over the telephone that i should rhyme. I did not even know what a chorus was.

Here you go...my first lyric ever written...20 years ago ( yes, too much text as i was told also afterwards ):



                                  Grab on to that beat! ( 1993 )

Sipping drinks with scanning eyes, you do! Hey there, do you see something?
Your alert eyes are wide, your heart is beating, your body is tense and shortly
you start coming to a sense.


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Dancing on the floor with wiggleing butts, flinging heads, spasmatic legs and
with jerky arms you are!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


You there, grab on to the small one, the tall one, the slim one, the skinny one,
the fat one, the ugly one, the gorgeous one, grab yourself, but do your dancing
thing! Hey, ugly ones, do not sing!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


We are swetting with thirst, exhausting with pleasure, moving to the beat and
screaming like retards!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Do not step on your partner´s toes, slap someone´s face, behave with disgrace,
but dance as for a race! Dancing like hell, we are! Hey, drinking too much will not
get you dancing too far! Do not just sit at the bar!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Grab on to each other and do the "leg-swing", but do not cause someone´s head
to ring! Any swing is fine, but stay in line! So, getting tired we are? Oh, no no no no
no, you are insane to complain! Oh, do not be so vain! Rest, if you are in such a
pain! But, hey, then you grab on to the beat again!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Well, here we go again! Centering in with your eyes, you are! Who is that you are
looking at? Are you looking to eat that rat or, ahha, to proove that your lust does
not have a flat?


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Oh, so we are approaching now? You think that person will like you? Grab on then,
which you intended anyway! What will you say? Hi, i am Ray! And i suppose you are Fay?


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!


Going to a private place, are we? Hey, avoid any fume and do not let anyone you
with **** exhume!


Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!
Hey there, grab on to that beat and move your feet or go and take a leak!
That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat! That beat!

Well B4N3M4N

You need to post your lyrics in the lyric section also if you really are serious about collaborating with other members here then people here are going to have to get to know you better, so start posting feedback on other peoples work.

As you know your lyrics are very long also your choice of words like (spasmatic legs and
with jerky arms you are) (Hey, ugly ones, do not sing) and (screaming like retards) are not words that i would use in a song and there is one other thing you need to know about been a lyric writer, it can tell an awful lot about the person who wrote them, i'm just been honest with you okay.

What sort of music do you like and you say you wrote all your lyrics in 93 so that mean you're 20 years older and 20 years wiser, so be honest with me, are you really serious about collaborating.

Happy Christmas and i quote   "If it bleeds, we can kill it"    ;D

Dogmax:

I feel comfortable within the literary area and so i feel i can write anything.

Yes, i have twisted humor.

Yes, i can collaborate if so wished, with someone who wants to try out/test my literary ability for commercial purposes.

My e-mail for contact is displayed in my first post.

Me writing long texts...i guess it shows my creative mind = i am then the opposite to having problem writing something at all! Heeeeh!

Besides, any of my previous written texts can be reworked. It´s no problem! Don´t view it literally!

I was in my early 20´s when i wrote all of my lyrics 1993...FOR THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME and with no prior practice, training or feedback! I have found that i wrote 55 lyrics from 1993 during a short period of time! I found at at the age of 9 or 10 that i was able within the literary area and i applied this for the first time during the two weeks i wrote the 52 different lyrics consisting of a total of 104 A4-pages of content. I consider myself to be an intellectual!

I hate to be judgemental my friend but I think you think you're tremendously talented.

I'm doing double takes at some of the things you're saying.

Having said that, I've had a beer or two.

I understand you.

But i can´t state that confidence is the same as bragging.

Confidence in yourself is a positive attribute instead of the opposite and this is also something you should relay to other humans to give them a better self-esteem and to dare.

Of course, one must not lie, and thus be truthful as not to give false hopes or expectations.

It´s more like the US Army motto: "Be the best that you can be!" I am sure many would like to have such opportunity in real life also.

What about yourself: do you yourself think you lack the ability to write or are you already yourself a prolific lyricist? If you are a prolific lyricist, then what would your advices be for writing contemporary popular lyrics in categories like...Rock and Pop...or other categories...any kind of category?

PS! Canadian "Molson" beer is indeed a great beer...if you haven´t tried it yet!

How would i be qualified to do this, if i am myself an amateur regarding how a lyric really is supposed to be constructed and performed?

Just give your honest opinion :)
