Death of a Smash

* Kyley on lead vocals, Brothers sing background, Stephanie Bulla on violin and

Think for hours, sleep for hours, dream about magicians mystic powers
Ideas are born, and a song is born, it’s all about a wizard and a unicorn
And now that it’s finished, what shall I do with it?

When you reach the chorus you will know, you will know, you will know

I went the top, I said, “Can you sing it?“
It’s not just any old song, but it’s a big hit, single, it’s a smash
Listen close, to my free-style, I never force a rhyme unless it’s worth my while
And now that it’s finished, nobody seems to like it

And when you reach the chorus you will know, you will know, you will know

Now hear my song!
( Below, at this point in the song, two different set of lyrics are performed simultaneously,I’ll label them lyrics1, and lyrics2.)

Lyrics1
You stay here awhile and wait for me, frolic in the forest, frolic in the forest
Then I’ll return again along the way
Bringing back the magic, bringing back the power
Lyrics2
In the meadow moves the sower of the seeds, weeper of the weeds
Maker of magic and master of the unicorn
No one is as happy as a wizard and his unicorn

We wanted songs about love
About a man and a woman finding all that love bestows
We wanted songs about breaking hearts
When they reach the very limits of their souls
A song about an unknown love, or a cheating love affair

Frankly, we can’t sing that trash
Oh, I feel I’ve seen the death of a smash
