These are rough demos. I am a singer/ lyricist I suppose more than anything else. I can't play an instrument. The frustration of not being able to put music to my words lead me to GarageBand. So as a novice tech musician I give you the music in my head.

This Bird's Gotta Bounce
by David Wells
If you keep thinking
Just like that
Your life is gonna
Get stuck that way
But there are choices
That you can make
To guarantee yourself
A much better day
(Tag)
Well I've done my time
And I've paid my dues
I ain't going to waller
In someone else's blues
(Chorus)
This bird's
Gotta bounce
Ain't got time to mess with you
When given the option
I know exactly what you're gonna do
I said this bird's
Gotta bounce
I'm sorry but this bird's gotta bounce
I'm not gonna stick around
And watch the walls come tumbling down
Oh baby
Don't be absurd
I've given you my word
That this bird
I said baby
This bird's gotta bounce
You just gotta pick
Your new attitude
And take it out
For a spin
Ain't nothing else
That's gonna fix
This big ol' mess
That you're in
(Repeat tag)
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge)
Everything that happens
Can guide you to success
You can relish in the good times
When you learn from your mess
Ain't got time to flap my wings
Over silly little things
And you ain't gonna ruffle me
Cause like a bird I'm flying free
(Repeat tag)
(Repeat chorus)
