these lyrics just popped into my head, and i dont have a clue how to use em, so i thought i would offer them up to the forum to see if anyone relates to them enough to make a song.
DIFFERENT KINDA SHORE
VERSE
They got adverts in the papers
they got adverts on the street
and theyre sellin us a lifestyle
but the world just cant compete
and theyre diggin all the coal up
and theyre drillin all the oil
till you just cant see the beauty
for the massive hills of spoil
CHORUS
And the folks just keep on usin
they just take and take somemore
but i guess my waves are breakin
on a diffrent kinda shore
Verse
Theres a big hole in the forrest
theres a big hole in the sky
and theres cancer from the sunlight
but the world aint askin why
coz theres fuel to make the cars go
and theres burgers on the street
but it sure does take a lotta ground
for growin all that meat
CHORUS(repeat)
VERSE
And everyone is fightin
and they think there cause is true
but dont bother me with red and white
coz all i see is blue
so take all of your gadgets
all your fast food and your stuff
coz all i need is my sweet harp
ive found that thats enough
CODA
coz you folks just keep on usin
you just take an take somemore
but i guess my waves are breking
on a different kinda shore

I think you should add:

People are the problem,
This world could do without.
The place would be much cleaner,
If people weren't about.
They're making all those choices,
just to stay on top,
While the governments are a tryin'
to make all of em' stop.
We're done letting people choose,
the way to use their stuff.
Take it away, and make 'em pay
for them, enough's enough!
With limited resources,
people tend to make a choice.
When becomes worth their while,
they'd make another choice.
But freedom comes at quite a price,
you let people make decisions.
Kill 'em and leave it for the animals
who don't use televisions.

Hi Bro i hope you don't mind my Edit


Adverts in the paper
adverts on the street,
Mans sellin you a lifestyle
that the world just cant compete

Mans diggin up the coal
He's drillin all the oil,
untill you won't see the beauty,
for the massive hills of spoil,


CHORUS x 2
People just keep on using
takeing more and more,
i guess my waves are breaking
on a diffrent kind of shore,


Theres a big hole in the forrest
a big hole in the sky,
cancer from the sunlight
but the worlds not asking why,

as long as theres fuel for cars
a MC Donalds down the street,
Hay it sure does take a lotta land
for growin Angus meat



the whole world won't stop fightin
only there cause is true.
dont bother me with red and white
all i see is blues,

take all those fancy gadgets
your fast food and your stuff,
Bro's all i need is my sweet harp
ive found that just enough,

FINISH x 3 cresc builds between each ending verse
then final crescendo

People just keep on using
takeing more and more,
i guess my waves are breakin
on a diffrent kind of shore,

Thats cool Nasty, i am more a verse writer than a lyric writer so i am prone to perfect rhyme which doesnt always sit naturally in a song lyric, but if any one wants to use my words and needs to tweak em a bit to fit there song format thats fine by me.
Oldwailer used some of my lyrics a while back and he changed a whole verse and did a great job
