Mike's Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I had a dream last night about my band
The drums at my back and guitar in my hand
We're gonna rock for the rest of our days
No working life for me, I just wanna play
I don't want to wash dishes
I don't want to sell shoes
I don't want to make pizza
Or work for you
I don't want to work in the library
Rock and roll is gonna set us free
Rock alone won't keep us alive
We'll be working shit jobs just to play some dive
But's that's just fine, that's alright by me
Because the music's gonna set us free
We're gonna take this band and move away
The big city's where we're gonna play
Thanks to our friends and our families
Now we gotta go and follow the dream
