It’s getting there! Updated August 11th
Here’s the game:
- I pick a word as a subject and start off the song with the first line.
- You get to add a line in the comments. No hassles, just leave a quick comment.
- 1 line per person, keep it clean.
- To keep it simple, every pair of lines has to rhyme.
- The song gets sung live at an open mic and recorded
Every pair has to rhyme, so as an example it would be:
“John has a cat
The cat has a hat
The cat went outside
The cat took a ride.”
We’re starting off with the subject of: adventure.
The first line is (NEW LYRICS ADDED) :
“She put on her boots and she left
No one thought to accuse her of theft
She just felt like she needed to run
Her emotional baggage weighed about a ton
Without any chance of an agreeable parting
She stormed out in rage, & tears just kept falling.
So she wiped the tears off her haggard face
and continued on with life’s great race.
Time to move on and forget the hurt and pain
Thirty seconds late, she missed the only train.
So she sat at the station lost and afraid
With the realization her choice was made.“
ADD YOUR LYRIC NOW! I’ll keep everyone who participates updated. Check the box off to be notified by email about updates to this post.
(I’m going to leave this post at the top of the site for a little for exposure. It will stay up until the song has enough words.)

Hah! Alex has got the comments stuffed this time.
Ondrea, in order for it to be in the same time as the song so far, your line would have to be truncated to “Even in the dark, she felt the sun”.
I’ll use Alex’s line next and let you pick a new one that rhymes with his.

Alex, I’m beginning to see what you’re saying. I wanted it to be simple for everyone to be able to rhyme to
