Title of the Song Lyrics
First you get their attention like "Hey look at me" (Look at me)
Then you throw some chords around it no more than three
And you talk about love or love that's gone wrong
And you end it all off with the title of the song
Title of the song, title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
It's boy meets girl, girl meets boy
It's good to be clever but you better be coy
Get 'em all line dancing like old King Kong
End it all off with the title of the song
Title of the song, title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
This here's the bridge
It don't say too much, you see
But it don't have to, it just takes us all from A to B to C to D to yeah
Bring it down boys, bring it down
Well I've told you everything about music I know
You aim for platinum but you settle for gold
You shoot you country video with old Cheech and Chong
And you end it all off with the title of the song
Title of the song, title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
I said end it all off with the title of the song
Yeah end it all off with the title of the song
Yeah, woo!
Yeaheee
Then you throw some chords around it no more than three
And you talk about love or love that's gone wrong
And you end it all off with the title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
It's good to be clever but you better be coy
Get 'em all line dancing like old King Kong
End it all off with the title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
It don't say too much, you see
But it don't have to, it just takes us all from A to B to C to D to yeah
You aim for platinum but you settle for gold
You shoot you country video with old Cheech and Chong
And you end it all off with the title of the song
When left ain't right, what's right ain't wrong
Cain't be more than three minutes long
End it all off with the title of the song
I said end it all off with the title of the song
Yeah end it all off with the title of the song
Yeaheee

Darrell's song lyrics are intimate, literate, and evocative. This cut proves he's also deciphered Nashville's success checklist, which he spells out... "no more than 3 minutes long, and end it all up with the title of the song." And he ends THIS song lyrically at exactly 3:00 in but lets the band noodle on for much longer. It's an ironic flip-of-the-bird to the genre's lazy recording formulas. I love it!
