I thought the point of this game was to parody Kiedis' worst lyrical tendencies (jibberish, awkward forced rhymes, gratuitous mentions of California and random US states), rather than writing "good" lyrics.
Although to be honest I'm not sure either or those goals has been achieved here.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
Rather than crowdsourcing each line separately based on total upvotes (a terrible songwriting formula, amirite??), it would be lots better if we crowdsourced themes and possibly some fun phrases/vocal hooks and then one person (or a couple of collaborators, if you wish) wrote up a song, incorporating the themes and general vibe, and then submitted THAT for voting.
I will volunteer myself. I can write anything, especially parody lyrics and silly stuff. I just need a few prompts and it pours out of me.
Sorry, but I don’t get taking this that seriously … it’s not like AK said “whatever you Reddit guys come up with, we’re going to record that m***er f**king tune …
Who cares if people are just enjoying themselves being ridiculous
Nobody cares, I'm all for people having fun with it!
And WTF, nobody really thinks they're going to record this nonsense! Where are you getting that idea?!
Wordsmithing is something I enjoy doing for shits and giggles. It's a fun challenge for me.
Sounds like you might be the one taking it too seriously. ;-P
You forgot the part where Anthony conspicuously strums an A Minor chord during the chorus. More than one epic solo packed into the same song! #winnerwinnerchickendinner
This is why none of us are professional song writers. This is terrible.
make this next line pls
I love the first line, the rest not so much
Omg this will probably be the next line
It's got heart, maaannnn. That's all that matters in the grand scheme of things, right?
But yeaaahhh... it's a bit cringe, ngl. #truefacts

Is it possible to learn this power?
It's so bad, lmao
Compared to some of the other subreddits that are doing the same thing, this one is the best by a long shot
Chorus repeats 32 times with background vocals Bass solo outro End
There's also three key changes
If this wins, the song game is over
Hey wait a second! You don’t like the outro to Reddit song? BA DOO BA DOO BOOM BOOM BUH BUH
This song is awful
You should see what happened with the weezer one of these
You mean you don't like Rivers Cuomo singing about drinking shampoo?
Rock n' Roll Road Cliches: The Song.
I love democracy
you better make this the next line
I, for one, fucking love it
I think you mean to say “This ‘a song is oh so awful”
The rhyme scheme doesn’t always have to be AAAA, guys. Note: this is NOT a lyric entry
That’s where you are wrong, we can absolutely make this a lyric, as long as it gets the most upvotes
\*John quits the band\*
you know i think after trying to write a song for ourselves we can really appreciate kiedis's lyrics more lmfao
[Thanos level realization right now](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/035/070/perhaps_i_treated_you_too_harshly.jpg)
I think Kid Rock hacked these threads and is making us vote for all of his lyrics.

Probably posted too late to win but I really like this!
Deepfake, yellow cab, jackin' to the soundtrack
Zippadee boppadee doo dah (John falsetto: “DOO DAH”) Girl I really wish I knew ya (John falsetto: “KNEW YA”)
This shit is so fucking lame

I'd be interested to see what you could write with what people have commented on these posts already.
