I seem to do better starting somewhere....
Most of the songs I have written started as lyrics, then fumbling with music from there.
The only thing worse is a song of the topic .
But, most songs with plots to follow are terrible.

Reviewing other lyrics is an important part of learning about writing. When you can see what works and doesn't work in other lyrics, you can apply it to your lyrics. And we are here to learn, aren't we ?

I like your hard ball drivel ....
I have trouble writing 10 lyrics a year so 50 is beyond my imagination.
Your idea of one lyric a week a lyric.

It's not a challenge.

What are the worst song lyrics you've ever heard? I'm talking about the ones that give you the stupid chills, cause you to cringe, and make you groan in outrage all at the same time.
