Alright, i've been slinging this bad boy around for a few months now and I can't for the life of me come up with decent lyrics that this riff deserves. If any of you guys consider yourselves lyricists take a look at this and tell me what feeling you are getting. Also the guys that suck like me can check it out too

I cant sing or write lyrics so I fall into the "suck at life" category. I really liked the song if you give a shit though, it was pretty good.

I just started listening to this and immediately started thinking jack johnson, which immediately led me to a surf/beach theme. I am not very good at writing "general" lyrics. Most of my stuff is pretty personal but if you are looking for some direction that is how the music made me feel. Sounds really cool by the way! I hope you find the right words and post a final product.

lyrics:

the streets are covered with downtown girls in uptown bars
lookin for stars
and lookin for pearls

save you and save me

everytime i see you speak
my heart skips a beat
and i say hey hey lovely baby
wont you come and dance with me?

stupid man, you aint funny man
stupid man, what have you done today to impress me?

you see, it's always the same story
we never take a chance and the blame is on me
everytime i put my hand on my sleeve
i feel a beating heart, beaten and bleeding yo

save you and save me

everytime i hear you speak my heart believes it

stupid man, you aint funny man
stupid man (she said)

yeah, I completely forgot to comment on the music. It was really good Eric, some cool licks in there. I'm actually kinda surprised you couldn't come up with lyrics for this one, because all the other lyrics you've posted here have been pretty damn good.

I can never find a good vocal melody, it always seems bland

nice job both of you.. the lyrics reminded me a lot of DMB - "save you and save me" and "won't you come and dance with me"
