Songs About Songwriting
Jeffrey Lewis

Songs about songwriting suck
So I'm writing a song about songs about songwriting
Songs about songwriting suck
So I'm writing a song about songs about songwriting

A guy that I saw play once at this open mic
Said here's a song I wrote that I don't like
He sang about how there was no point to anything he said
If he really felt that way he should have just shut up instead

Because songs about songwriting suck
So I'm writing a song about songs about songwriting
Songs about songwriting suck
So I'm writing a song about songs about songwriting

A woman that I saw play once up around Woodstock
Thought I'd be glad to hear her sing about her writer's block
But anytime I hear someone say that they have nothing to say
It goes in one ear and out the other and it quickly fades away

Cause songs about songwriting suck
So I'm writing a song about songs about songwriting
Songs about songwriting suck
This is a song about songs about songwriting

There's nothing wrong with singing songs about being low and blue
Just don't feed me crap about how you know you're saying nothing new
Either have the confidence to tell me something real or something fun
Or put down the guitar until the muse returns to turn you on

Because songs about songwriting suck
Because songs about songwriting suck
Everyone knows that songs about songwriting suck
