How To: Write a New Song
Ingredients list:
- A corpse (or two, three is TOO MANY)
- A corpse (did I mention that one? Make sure you get one of those)
Let's get writing! Everyone these days thinks they can write a song, just like my Dad said he knew how to raise a son. But we know how that went.
- Take the corpse out of storage.
- Make sure it's dead.
- Bring it back to life.
- Warm up some pizza.
- Complete a 1,000 piece puzzle with your newly reanimated friend.
- Let him borrow the car tonight (please just this once?? Dana is having a party and her parents will DEFINITELY be there, I promise!)
- Show up at Dana's unexpectedly.
- March up to the stereo, haughty and with great purpose, and turn it off before yelling, "You're all in big trouble now!"
- Drive your newly reanimated friend home in stony silence.
- Yell "Michael, please, I just want to talk -----" before being interrupted by a slamming door.
- Try knocking on the locked door several times, only hearing "Leave me alone! I hate you!", amid his Nirvana vinyl turned up full blast.
- Finish the puzzle by yourself, sighing and looking into the middle distance as sappy music plays.
