Just now realized the doc is the mayor from Ghostbusters, right?
 
Like Melvins nonsense? Or just screaming in pitch?
Nonsense is good, that's what I like to do. But I can't write for sh*t.

When I don't have anything I really care about while writing lyrics, I pretty much just write a random story. Not gibberish, just nothing that really makes coherent sense unless I explain what I was thinking when I wrote it. I always explained it as writing a story in my head, then writing a song about that story. The lyrics only really make sense if you know the story lol. The way I used to write lyrics before that was just straight ahead opinion/editorial style punk lyrics.
