The Beer-Man: Part 2

This is what it should sound like. "The Beer-Man"

And, here's the second half of the lyrics. Same chords as the first half.

Doctor Synapse

Is his foe

He's master of the under handed deed


Doctor Synapse

Doles out woe

Based on his standard issue anti-moral creed


He can move

Things with his mind

Like the giant rubber band ball; his M.O.

When you're criminally insane that's how role


He can bend

People's thoughts

But, don't blame him for your parking ticket fine

He doesn't care about petty little crime



Well his cool demeanor will crack

When the Beer-man's on his track

Cause, that hero doesn't slack

In the darkness, in the moonlight, he does fight

All those standing on the wrong side of what's right

The Beer-Man

New week new song. I might try making a dinky recording of it this weekend.


________Bm

He's the Beer-Man

________E

Keeps us safe

_____G____________F#____________ Bm

In the darkness, in the moonlight, he does fight




_______Bm

He's the Beer-Man

_______E

Fear his wrath

_______G__________ F#_ _____________Bm

If you're standing on the wrong side of what's right



_______A

He can make

_______Bm

You feel drunk

_______G____ ______F#______Bm

It sounds stupid, but it's useful in a brawl

________G_________________F#_______Bm

It's hard to fight back when you're trying not to fall



______A

He can take

_________Bm

A thousand punches

________G____________F#_Bm

And come begging you for 57 more...

______G_____F#__________Bm

Maybe 20 after that he's feeling sore




_______D_______A_____Bm

Well, he knows the name's unfair

___________D_______A_________Bm

And, when he wears the tights people stare

______D________A____Bm

But, the Beer-man doesn't care

_____G____________F#____________ Bm

In the darkness, in the moonlight, he does fight

________G__________ F#_ _____________Bm

All those standing on the wrong side of what's right

Baby, You're Perfect

I wrote a blues song. It's 16-bar blues in G, each line is two bars. The last word should come on the down beat usually. When this is not the case I've made the word that should land on the down beat in bold. I don't know why I seem to naturally write lyrics as lead ins, but there you go.


VERSE I


Baby, you're perfect

You got that perfect voice

When you tell me you love me

When you're telling me lies that I believe

When you leading me on

When you're treating me wrong

Baby, you're perfect

---


Baby, your perfect

You got that perfect smile

When you're twirl your hair at me

And you know that I've lost the fight already

When you're getting your way

When you lead me a astray

Baby, you're perfect

Baby, you're perfect


CHORUS


Well you're perfect when you wake up, baby

I can't function when I know that your gone,

You always know just how to play me

That's why I've written this message in song

Let me tell you again, so know that it's true

Let it really sink in, cause whatever you do

Baby, you're perfect


VERSE II


Baby, you're perfect

You got those perfect legs

When you wrap 'em around me

When you're walking away from me again

When you're kicking me down

When you run me around

Baby, you're perfect

---



Baby, you're perfect

You got that perfect smell

When you're pressed up against me

When you're only a lingering scent on my pillow

When you've broken my heart

When you know you've been caught

Baby, you're perfect

Baby, you're perfect


CHORUS


VERSE III


Baby, you're perfect

You got those perfect eyes

When you look in my soul

That twinkle in your eye is so deceitful

When you're pulling heart strings

When you're leaving me weeping

Baby, your perfect

---


Baby, you're perfect

You got those perfect lips

When you're kissing me gently

When you're kissing others hard and heavy

When you think I don't know

When you get up and go

Baby, you're perfect

Baby, you're perfect


CHORUS
