If I could write a song, I’d call it “Steel Bridge”
I’d have John Hadley compose it like this
McFadden take the lead, Sarven with a solo
Troy could be the cover boy, rockin’ the cowbo’
Have Anna Sacks start it off with the intro
melaniejane, please add a little cello
Wally on the drums, Early with the vocals
Landon, please freestyle for the locals
Needs to be an anthem, call James Hall
Bring his son too, there’s room for us all
Go to Cherry Lanes, get Lantz Lazwell
Him and Dirty Deuce pro’ly high as hell
Now we need production, call Billy Triplett
Record it on the fly, then let Steve mix it
Have Chris Aaron throw mellow tones on it
Watch Ruby James overdub moans on it
We got a little time
We got a lotta soul
We got a lotta love to make before we go
We got seven days
That last all night
Spin the bottle, cut the tracks, and now we drop it down
Yo, Dan-O, make sure no one wastes time
Ronnie and Steve Smith collab on the bass line
Chorus is next, call Mike Bleck
Heard they wrote an ill-ass hook on his deck
Whitney, Bloody Crows, where he goes nobody knows
Pro’ly with Delaney, Carleyrae, and Angelo
Still need keys, call Andrea please
Meaghan, need you to harmonize on the v’s
Word on the street, we need a funkier tone
Kim Manning, please go grab your megaphone
Ain’t no lie, Charlie Cheney bring the pie
pat give us all the claw when we arrive
Zach V got it on lock at the Red Room
And Manny jumped out another girl’s bedroom
Any girl who wanna get up in the action
Go to Lumberjack Cash’s room for satisfaction
We got a little time
We got a lotta soul
We got a lotta love to make before we go
We got seven days
That last all night
Spin the bottle, cut the tracks, and now we drop it down
Tony Menzer said, “Let’s go to H.E.’s”
Vee said, “Let’s go,” Ellie said, “Maybe”
Here to write songs, here to make music
Only got seven days, so let’s use it
Recording it live, stream it worldwide
Six new from Northwest have arrived
Need a piano man, Craig Greenberg
And a talented vocalist like Liv Mueller
I’m one on the list, in the studio next
Hope I’m not in line behind Geri X
Adrienne Hatkin killin’ the xylophone
AJ Storitela killin’ the microphone
Shout to David Cox, Victoria Vox, Jaybo, Greg Ro, Adam Mackintosh
Rick Wood, Charles Boheme, and those I didn’t mention
We here to entertain, we all representin’
We got a little time
We got a lotta soul
We got a lotta love to make before we go
We got seven days
That last all night
Spin the bottle, cut the tracks, and now we drop it down
