Chad Neidt – First Song On The Album lyrics

This is the first song on the album
It better be good 'cause it's the first one
Don't wanna turn people off in the first ten seconds
Then they start having second guesses
About the money they just
But I get ahead of myself
Here we go, now it's time to start the show
This is my first CD where I get to be
Funny, happy, sad, mad, totally Chad
But it's not what I do for my job
Mainly due to the fact that this first track lacks a catchy dub-step drop
Like this

I want you to know that I've changed my sound
Because a guy with a guitar isn't in right now
I'll never get a record deal from being myself, but I could probably get
One being everyone else

Because there's no way that this song will one day
Be put on the radio because the second chorus has different words and flows
Poorly
But oh well, guess I'm not meant to sell lots and lots of CDs, T-Shirts,
And hoodies 'cause I only appease myself

Enough of this goofy-ass lyrical nonsense
Comedic words are my first line of defense
But underneath all that, is my mental fat
That I lose every year then gain right back
And I question if, I really have the heart
To go the distance in this game called art
Is it more about doing what I think is funny?
Or compromising that to make more money
I'm told it's a combination of the two
And if you do it long enough it stops bothering you
Oh really? So thats how this whole thing works?
And all this time I thought you put the art first
But now I get it, so I'll stop going crazy
'Cause I'll get paid to be generic and lazy
Which means I should probably end this song
With a generic chorus that lasts way too long
No thanks

Here we go now, this is how I start the show
With a vow that this CD will completely unfiltered me so get ready to be
Weirded out
The first half, I will try to make you laugh
Then I'll slide sneakily deep in my psyche
Full of of worry and mislead dreams
Here we go
