I might as well post it. Like I said in my entry PM...This was an extremely difficult title to write a song for. I found it very challenging and tried to push myself to do it and not quit this song and change to another title. Whilst I think it is quite cheesy in parts, I am proud of this and I really like it and stand by it. I have a very clearly rhythm to it as I was singing it whilst writing it. I can totally imagine Bruno on this and I think it fits the album perfectly. The song is primarily about about his love for music and dancing. But there's also a hidden meaning in there about loving sex. It is a funk/pop song that has a mixture of 70s/80s feel to it with a modern twist. I hope you enjoy. Oh I also included my previous entries too.

Sleep (Interlude)Sleep (Interlude)
This right here is the moment that I dread
The moment that I hate
When the night is so dead
My thoughts overtake
Spiral deeper into bed
As I speculate and exaggerate
Life and it's events
Or lack of.
Mo' money mo' problems
It's a fad.
No money more problems
It's sad.
Lack of.
Lack of love
Lack of money
Lack of sleep.
I need to sleep
A deep sleep
That sleeping beauty type of sleep
That Snow White poison apple type of sleep
A sleep so deep that's it's hard for the thoughts to creep
The deepest sleep that wouldn't make me leap
The moment my Charming comes and kisses me on the cheek.
These thoughts just won't go away
Why do they stay?
Fuck off, if you may?
Wide awake, here I lay
Tossing
Turning
The bed squeaks as I sway
It's ridiculous
Frustrating
Infuriating
I feel the tears falling down my ears
And I think back over the years…
…Oh shit, not this again
Running around in circles
The clock tick tocks
Fuck.
I'm sick of this shit.
Just close your eyes.
Don't think.
Just be.
Fall asleep.
Bitter Pill
Bitter Pill
Verse:
Glory days have come and gone
Like the rising sun at dawn
The seasons of my life have spun
As I wonder, what have I done?
Pre-chorus:
I guess I should swallow this bitter pill
Instead of pretending this isn’t real
Chorus:
Oh how I wish I, how I wish I
Could give life another try
Wouldn’t stop for anyone
Won’t pick up no passers-by
I wouldn’t let anyone influence my mind
Oh how I wish I, how I wish I
Could give life another try
Verse:
As the colours change naturally
I’m overcome with jealousy
So I look over my shoulder
Hoping time turns to nostalgia
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
Who told me life would be this way?
The hurt, the lies, regrets, and pain
Maybe I should take the blame
I keep on searching through the rain
For a chance to do this all again
Chorus
Unorthodox Jukebox
Unorthodox Jukebox
Verse 1:
It’s Friday night, I just clocked off my 9 to 5.
Dancin’ rowdy all night, gonna party, get high
Everybody move your thighs, to the left to the right
It’s time to jook ‘n’ jive, shimmy, shimmy, shake ‘n’ slide.
Hook:
I can’t stop. I’m on top.
Won’t stop moving even when the beat drops
I’m getting down, hip-hop
Everybody come on over let’s bop
Verse 2:
I just want a funky beat to get me up off my feet
MJ Thriller in the street, look at me I’m on heat
Everybody, let’s compete, even if you’re offbeat
When the music is complete I’mma just press repeat
Hook:
I can’t stop. I’m on top.
Won’t stop moving even when the beat drops
I’m getting down, hip-hop
Everybody come on over let’s bop
Chorus:
This is for the whole world
For all my boys, all my girls
No matter where you are
Get on that air guitar
Groove on top that roof top
The bedroom, that back drop.
Put a dollar in the jukebox
We’re gonna act unorthodox
Post-chorus 1:
So move it, move it, now
Move it, move it, now (x3)
So groove it, groove it, now
Groove it, groove it, now (x3)
Verse 3:
I don’t even give a damn, I just wanna act stupid
I’m gonna bam bam, gonna shoot like I’m Cupid
All these girls on the floor, I’m outta control
Janet Jack, Kendrick, I guess I’m on a roll
Hook
Verse 4:
Booty Beys, shake your knees, single ladies, look at me
How I’m rockin’ my feet, let’s get down to the funky beat
When you feel it in your bones you can’t help but dance along
I just want some rock’n’roll. Play some R&B or soul
Hook
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Post-chorus 2:

Let’s vogue to some Donna
Some Minnie. Some Tina.
Some Shuggie.

Some Usher, some Jay-Z
Hey Stevie.
