about

I had: The title which I loved, most instrumental bits and some basic structure. Until the end I was not really sure what to make of it. I crammed in every idea I had and hastily wrote some lyrics, the basic idea being that shopping and consuming does not make you happy in the end. So if you have an inner void to fill you can't do it in the shopping mall, however much you stretch your budget. Still not 100% happy with the words and even less with the vocal performance, but hey, there's already a lot in there. Like 7/8, 7/4 and 4/4 time.

lyrics

She's feeling tired and bored
and nothing really happens
She don't know what she wants
But seeking ways to get there
Yeah

She don't know where to turn
The world is full of offers
There's so many things to try
There's so many things to buy
You'll be a better you
The sum of your possessions

If this is the solution
If this is the solution
I'd like to have my problem back

As always somewhere else
Must be somewhere better
It is anywhere but here
It is anywhere but here
But still you gotta cope
And put up with your hopes

If this is the solution
If this is the solution
I'd like to have my problem back

Come fly away
right tonight
299,-

She's feeling tired and bored
It don't seem to get better
And everything she bought
It doesn't really matter

If this is the solution
If this is the solution
I'd like to have my problem back

about

ampersandman Berlin, Germany

I put my pants on just like the rest of you -- one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I make songs that no one cares about.
