So my friend posed a challenge to me. He said to me, "Write a song that isn't about what it's really about." So I tried. And tried. And here is the result. Also, this song has a viola solo in it. A VIOLA SOLO. How often does that happen?!

A viola solo is not common, but sounds great with this piece. I'm so glad that you included the viola in here. ^^

And such a lovely voice. I absolutely enjoyed this. Great job.

You should post the lyrics! This was very creative traviata, I'm starting to fall in love with your voice 8D

I'm so happy you liked it XD

Here are the lyrics:

In Paris when it sizzles,
You get twenty-four
To teach yourself to speak
To find ton amour

The city a centrifuge
Machines turned to beds
And gravity, it weighs each
Heavy synapse in your head

(Boomp-boomp-tssk)

mg down, mg up
Little friends
In your tea-cup

mg left, mg right
Little friends, tittle friends
That let you sleep at night

(and) They that ate
They that did eat
Of that sick, sick bass-beat

A thousand tiny little friends

Count the heads, count them again
Just about one thousand men

A thousand men, a thousand tiny Little friends

A bit of chemical catechism
Can control-alt-delete the messes
Abort/retry/fail the masses
No surprises here.

The city a centrifuge
Machines turned to beds
And gravity, it weighs each
Heavy synapse in your head

[repeat prechorus and chorus]
