The Perfect Ending
Lyrics by Hal Pollock
I told you all about the title
And about the middle part
Now you need the perfect ending
Before your song can start
Of course you need some music
So just add it to your cart
Then you can show the world
You have a song inside your heart
When you write the perfect ending
Could be happy could be sad
Depends on what you want to say
And how much sleep you had
When you have all the components
Doesn’t matter which comes first
Toss in some magic moments
And at least one killer verse
If you need temporary words
Just use McCartney’s scrambled eggs
Or perhaps Don Henley’s ‘Baby’
‘Oh baby how I love your legs’
If the parts don’t fit together
Like you expected that they would
Just remember what Joe Walsh did
When he created Life is Good
It’s really not that hard to do
Once you make up your mind
And if you try to write a song
You actually might find
You’re really pretty good at it
You can write a good song too
So one day when you travel on
We’ll all remember you
Go out and write the greatest song
‘Cause if you do you’re part
You can set the world to music
With the song inside your heart
It’s really not that hard to do
Once you make up your mind
And if you try to write a song
You actually might find
You’re really pretty good at it
You can write a good song too
So one day when you travel on
We’ll all remember you
