Amanda Palmer - Uke Song Lyrics

UKE SONG Lyrics[Intro Spoken]
[Jib] I wrote you a song
[Gary] You did?
[Jib] Yeah

[Verse]
Thank you, Gary
For the ukulele
Wrapped up all pretty and brought over unexpectedly yesterday
I only picked it up a couple of times
You can see already how expertly I play it
I've only figured out these two chords
As far as I can tell, they don't work with any other songs
Just this one that I'm making up right now
But, hey I think it's pretty good considering it didn't exist 30 seconds ago
And, realistically, I can't play it wrong
Making up a song isn't totally unlike unwrapping a present
You don't know what you'll find
Just got to cut a few strings
Rip through the paper
And open it up and take a look inside

[Spoken]
[Jib] Thе song, I mean. Not the presеnt. Or, well, technically I guess it's both. It's a metaphor. Cause that's what songwriting is! Now, here's the chorus."

[Chorus]
What's inside the song?
Inside the song
Inside there
What's inside the song?

[Chorus]
What's inside the song?
Inside the song
Inside there
What's inside the song?

[Spoken]
[Jib] Oh my God, it's like Schrödinger's cat
[Gary] What's that?
[Jib] You don't know about this? It's a cat in a box
[Gary] Huh
[Jib] It's this paradoxical brain game
[Gary] Okay
[Jib] So it's like, okay, so.. The cat is, like, theoretically both dead and alive until you open the box and look at it to find out
[Gary] Wow
[Jib] Something about quantum physics and radioactivity, but I feel like it can apply to a bunch of things. And there are a lot of situations where you just don't know what's going on from the outside, and...
[Gary] Sure
[Jib] ...well, dangerous to jump to conclusions when a cat's life is a stake. I mean probably there are boxes we just shouldn't open
[Gary] Mm-hmm
[Jib] Where you're pretty sure that the thing in there is dead, but you're just not quite ready to actually see that
[Gary] Totally
[Jib] Not to mention, like, what if the act of looking totally changes the thing? Like, what if the cat was fine, but then it got scared, and when it heard you opening the box, it died of a heart attack?
[Gary] Well, that's.. yeah that's intense
[Jib] Right? That's fucking scary. And maybe a song could be like that. Maybe, like, maybe someone could hear this song and then just decide to kill somebody. I think that could totally happen. I think it must have happened, right?
[Gary] Yeah
[Jib] But - babe, you're not going to kill somebody just because of this song, are you?
[Gary] I can't really tell at this point. We'll see
[Jib] Hey, all I'm saying is that it's a lot of responsibility making up songs. It's dangerous. Now the chorus, okay

[Chorus]
What's inside the song?
Inside the song
Inside there
What's inside the song?

[Spoken, Jib]
Now, you harmonize

[Chorus]
What's inside the song?
Inside the song
What's in there?
What's inside the song?

[Chorus]
What's inside the song? (Why am I afraid)
Inside the song (To open it)
What's in there?
What's inside the song? (It might turn out wrong)

[Outro]
What's inside the song?
Inside the song
Inside the song
Inside the song
