Not that I’m uninspired or virtuosically inept
or find the need to mind and heed a typical precept
Not that I’m apathetic or aesthetically naive
but I’ve my major reasons why I picked this very key

It’s resonant and practical
It’s pleasant and it’s free
My mother always said to write
Another song in G

Facilitating fingerings for tonic, doms, and subs
Transcendently pure, incidentally fewer flounders, flops, and flubs
Generating general pitch centrality
but I’m partial to marshal through this sol tonality

It’s PC and reliable
It’s ABCDE-Z!
Don’t bother to sharpen or to harp on
‘nother song in G

This part will be a solo for probably kazoo
I dunno how it'll go or what I'm gonna do

Beyond a simple tune with sympathetic overtones
It’s something free’ng, accompan’ng fundamental open drones
Beyond how I was shaped and regardless how I bowed
All the while I’ll beguile fiddling a lá mode

It’s humankind and whimsical
Defined by frequency
Big Brother knows when I compose
Another song in G

Though limited by voicings and harmonic progression
Mistaken gates awaken sakes of temperamental regression
Though limited by volume and oral tessitura
Enlight’ning rings from untight’ning strings I’ve found my scordatura

It’s redundant and repetitive
Abundant and carefree
Others say to stay away from
‘nother song in G

Words I adore we’ll sing once more
Another song in G
A verse so nice we’ll sing it twice
Another song in G

A verse so nice we’ll sing it thrice
Another song in G
Comes with a price, four will suffice
Another song in G
