Commission Song, July 2007

Wrote this to be the intro for my first CD, Soulcolor.

Hi, my name is Allie
And I’m a musician
I like to write songs for you, songs for you
For all occasions
I’ve got my own motivations
I like singing, you like music, whoo
I can play guitar and piano too
Basically whatever you want me to do
Just tap your feet to the beat while
I go on to enumerate my own style
I can write a love song for your wife
A song about the best day of your life
I can write about your favorite childhood game
And if you have to say that

You’d like something else
In the song I made, baby, baby
I can change it up
And I will do it before it’s too late

You want it fast, you want it slow
You want it performed live, or recorded to go
I gotcha covered, no need to stress
Songs by commission, your girl’s the best
Deadlines, no problem, just give it an hour or two
We’ll get it all worked out, and write that song for you
And if you find your tune is lackin
I apologize for slackin
But it’s okay, don’t fear
100% your money back guaranteed here

and 1…. Are you listening?
Do you hear me?
I said, 100% money back guarantee
So what you waiting for
Come over here and I’ll play you a chord
You be bored
And I’ll just keep on writing
Until you walk away with your song and a smile
It will be worth your while, your while
And if you say


You’d like something else
In the song I made, baby, baby
I can change it up
And I will do it before it’s too late
