Wielder of Words Lyrics

Wielder of words is steeped within traditional verbs and curiously a dented top hat
Discovered in the moonlit Laundromat

A busted cheroot is smoking on the heel of his boot
His opera is torn thru' the haste of operatic oyster eating evenings of waste

Sleek astrakhan, reclining on a chippendale stand so sad they should be owning a man who's thicker than the forestry from where they began
Robard de Font Le Roy

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
