I think i'm going to try to write some music for this one, I think that writing punk music will be easier for me than anything else. If i do, I'll try to get a recording up.
Thank you once again everyone,

I really like the flow of it and found it fun to follow a long. One thing I noticed that slowed me down a little bit, was the last half of the last verse.


All in all, Great job!

He used to phrase show your colours, but ive reinterpreted it as flying the flag for the guy. I see this is a punky kind of rant mostly, sneering verses and stacato angry chorus with powrchord stabs. Anyway, let me know what you think,

Fly the Flag


It all goes wrong,
She's not at home,
Her phone is off,
She won't call you,

She's out again,
With someone new,
Some other guy,
Some guy not you,

(chorus)
So when you ditch your cheating slag,
Go call your friends
They'll fly the flag!

You call again,
Some guy picks up,
You slam it down,
You've had enough,

(chorus)
So when you ditch your cheating slag,
Go call your friends
They'll fly the flag!

You see her out,
You turn away,
Another beer,
Another day

You didn't need this,
You didn't choose this,
You didn't want this,
But got it,

(chorus/outro)
So when you ditch your cheating slag,
Go call your friends
They'll fly the flag!]]> Guitar Noise Songwriting Club floydthegolfer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-noise-songwriting-club/fly-the-flag/#post-13972
