Yes, it is the hard part. So far I have made three attempts at writing lyrics with mixed success. The first song I attempted was for the second chapter of the book where Seth Morely finds out about his transfer and picks out a noser and stuff. It is called “The Morbid Chicken”. However, I’m not terribly pleased with those lyrics at all and might not keep any of them. I also wrote lyrics for the first chapter, in which Ben Tallchief gets his transfer and has some personal thoughts, and will probably call that song “Delmak-O”. The third song is called “Settlement Whore” and roughly follows the scene in chapter six where Susie Smart tries to get Morely to proposition her. Here are the lyrics I jotted down today:

settlement whore, I'm the settlement whore
when I knock on your door
you've got to let me in, ya let me in
tell me what's your proposition? (what?)

say you want to fuck me (no!)
c'mon, say you want to fuck me (why?)
I've got a sexual condition
and I'm looking for perdition

every man here has been between my legs
I always win and they beg for more
because I'm the settlement whore

tell me what you're wishin for
I know all of the positions
more than your wife, I'm sure

if you don't ask I'll give it to you instead
I'm pretty strong and I can throw you on the bed
take off my peek-n-squeeze bra
we'll screw until we're both raw
I saw you staring at me at dinner
you know deep down you want to become a sinner
now finish what you began
I'll make you feel like a man
like you've never felt before
cuz I'm the settlement whore
yes, I'm the settlement whore

is that your wife that just burst in?
hey if she wants she could join in
wait, she looks mad and she's brandishing a vase
I think she's planning to hit me in the face

my mini-building will shoot her in the head
and I'll laugh when she is stone cold dead
hey why'd you have to pull her out of the way?
you know you're totally ruining my day

why are you leaving? we didn't have sex yet
right now I'm gonna place a little bet
you'll come begging when you realize you're wrong
but until you do I'll keep on singing my song

settlement whore, I'm the settlement whore
you better let me in when I knock on your door
settlement whore, I'm the settlement whore
every man I fuck always begs for more

It’s still a little rough around the edges, but I think I worked my way to a good chorus by the last stanza. If I can keep things flowing like this I might actually finish this album inside of six months. Keep your fingers crossed, y’all.
