[Verse 1] In a world so lonely I've seen someone place an ad Not the usual — it was clever "reply" was the thought I had I started writing in cursive paper and pen, laying on the floor I closed my eyes — nothing came out my brain protested — what're you doing that for? [Pre-Chorus] So here’s me trying to notice and put it into rhyme my thoughts and speculations to finish this song some time [Chorus] a song made for humans Who still like to play Trade a song for a song already made my day the skill of the ad can not be matched Not worth trying for too long I start felling some melody — a song might just come along [Verse 2] should I ask questions, should I tell my dreams? better keep my thoughts and look for other themes... A song about friendship Maybe even a love tune — There are plenty of those songs... for one more might be no room [Bridge] My ideas keep changing two lines don't reflect the same here writing in this paper as I can't remember my username Something starts to sound familiar It is just like a kid's game could be called “Reply Received” And I could play it without shame [Final Chorus] Funny little humans Who's job it is to play — A game and a silly song keeps old age away! With no preoccupations Imagination set adrift sailing in a melody wishing I had a spliff [Outro] I would not be so lonely smoking while seeing this ad… but for the green I'd have to pay, so for free I'll write this song.
