A Song From My Musical

I'm writing a musical. It's a bit avant-garde, and still a little rough. This is called "Dick's Lament (reprise)" This is after Dick returns from the war only to find that everyone who was an asshole turned out nice, and vice versa. Also, he can't find any strawberry pop-tarts, and 5 dollars comes in cans.

Without further ado:

(Dick)

Ohhhhhhhhhh...
I'm a big fucking dickhead
Yeah yeah yeah

(chorus)
He's a big fucking dickhead
yeah yeah yeah

(Dick)
I got cankers on my shanker
And I wave it all around
I got snot
On my WHAT?
And I spread it all around.
I got nomads
By my gonads
But they can't...be...FOUNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

(chorus)
He's a big fucking dickhead
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh! A big fucking dickhead?
Yeah yeah yeah!

(Dick)
I got diseases
Makes me sneezes
I say "wah wah wah"
I got sassafras up my ass
Ain't that hah hah hah?

(chorus)
He's a big fucking dickhead
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh! A big fucking dickhead?
Didn't I say yeah?

(Dick)
I got sod in my wad
And a stink on my dink


(music slows)

But I need love toooooooooooo
Why can't I get it from you?
Why do you do what you dooooooooo?
Why you make me boohooo?

(chorus)
Cause..
You're a big fucking dickhead
Yeah yeah yeah

But that's OK
Anyway
Go out and play
It Is Your DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

(needs a little work, but pretty good, huh?)

I'm not a big fan of these romantic things personally.

I disagree.

Laughter is the best medicine and she's got a ton of it right here!

Infi, how about a "Who Dunnit?" with a dance number, or a romantic comedy with a plot?

How about a comedy dance number which, after a series of wardrobe failures, develops into a romantic whodunnit?

BigV: so true. I think writing that helped my shoulder!

Love all the ideas. As the whims hit me, I'll write more songs. I don't know what possessed me yesterday (the Hair song then the song I posted from Sunday in the Park with George were certainly the inspiration) but I was just messing around.

The next one will be more better.

Thanks JBK.

More! More! More!

Get the fertilizer 'out' and onto the page.

Best therapy in the friggin' world (also: you're an exceptional writer).

Thanks. I'm thinking of new ones. Maybe I'll spend more than 5 minutes on the next one.

is 'fertilizer' code for crystal meth? Because I think it is.
