these lyrics just came to me one day I was watching an episode of House M.D. i also had the song "audience of One" by Rise Against so it follows the rhythm of that song.every time i write a song i go back and change it like 3 or 4 time, this is just the first draft.



I just try to live day by day
It makes life fun,like singing this song
Science finds no cause, or reason why
we blend in a crowd ,but rise when we speak

They call it a curse from the tower of Babylon
I say its a gift I got from Santa Clause
They say I have turrets and its all about stress

Sometimes I change my name, or forget to say thank you
But its not like I'm trying to lie to you
I wont like its made me think and wonder why,
But then i forget and eat a chicken breast.

They call it a curse I got from Babylon
They try to sell us drugs, we'll tell them
to shove them up their ass

It's not so bad its not like I have cancer
and I don't need a cure,don't want to be
an insensitive jerk

Don't you wish you had it too?
well too bad your not the lucky one
It doesn't discriminate or hate

We should all live that way.





...it sounds better in my head;)

Good work man. Let us know how it turns out if you decide to make any changes. (I say this as you mentioned it might only be a first draft).

Forgot to mention, I only found out recently that the scatman stuttered and that, that song was about stuttering. Which is pretty funny because I use to listen to the song thinking "That guy obviously doesn't stutter". Just proves how contextual stuttering is and that it's so obviously not any kind of physical problem.

i just came up with that, one of my fav story in the bible in the "tower of babylon" which says thast were all the different languages come from. If it was true then stuttering would have came from there also i would think.
