My Sister, the Songwriter

I just wanted to share with you a song my sister Allison recently wrote.

I find the tune catchy and the lyrics clever.

Check it out here.

everybody’s tellin’ me what to do
just be you they say just be you
everybody’s tryin’ to crack the case
start to finish in the glamor race

oh yeah

tell me why I gotta look so good
tell me why I gotta sigh just right
tell me why I gotta fake this bake
i just won’t

tell me why I gotta curl my hair
tell me why I gotta stick this lip
tell me why I gotta line this eye
i just won’t

everybody’s tellin me what to do
everybody’s givin’ me advice
everbody’s telling me to be nice, be nice
i don’t gotta a lot of things to say
I just gotta do what I feel each day
hey, hey, hey

so tell me why I gotta hear this ad
tell me why I gotta not feel bad
tell me why i gotta get you glad
i just won’t

tell me why I gotta join your cause
tell me why I gotta smile at Oz
tell me why I gotta grease your paws
i just won’t

bring on the glam, lights on the stand,
c’mon girlfriend

the camera is on
you know you can’t be wrong

step to the right, turn to the left,
girlfriend

cuz your shining
your shining
you shining till the makeup’s gone

everybody’s tellin’ me what to do
just be you they say just be you
everybody’s tryin’ to crack the case
start to finish in the glamor race

oh yeah
